Disney’s Lake Nona Campus Going Before Development Review Committee

The Walt Disney Company’s new Lake Nona, Florida campus is moving right along and will go before the city’s development review committee on March 9, 2023.

The Disney-connected entity that purchased the land back in 2021 is listed as owner Andrew Arell of Dynamic Campus LLC. Tavistock Development Co. is acting as the applicant on behalf of Disney and Dynamic Campus in this request for a Specific Parcel Master Plan (SPMP).

According to public plans that were revealed earlier this year, the campus aims to have eight buildings, three garages, and a central plant. It is an approximately 1.8 million square feet parcel north of Lake Nona Blvd., west of Helios Blvd., each of Medical City Dr., and south of Central Florida Greenway (SR 417).

Once the request has been approved, Disney would next submit official site plans and then building permits. The Lake Nona campus is expected to add 2,000 more jobs.

Originally scheduled for 2023, the project was later shifted to 2026. Some employees who will end up working at the campus have already relocated to Florida while others had to back out of home purchases.
