I'm from Orlando originally and have been living near the LA area for the past 10 years. Looking forward to moving back in the next year or so. Really hoping unicorp converts the fashion square mall area into somewhat of lifestyle center like "The Grove" in LA or the "The Americana at Brand" in Glendale. Really nice, elevated, shopping, dining, and entertainment experience. This is a great opportunity for Unicorp to really change the downtown area!

Oh totally agree! The outdoor space and lifestyle areas are super popular and would transform the baldwin park/fashion square area

It is amazing how the shopping habits changed. He is on point that people shop online and go to malls to enjoy and socialize. Once the rebuild the Fashion Square Mall it will bring a lot of new business to the area.

Amazing to think how different Central Florida’s trajectory could have been if someone like Chuck wasn’t in charge of the reopening committee. Businesses could’ve easily been held hostage for a year + without reopening, really stagnating growth. Props to him for seeing the right path forward.

I feel like we need a new beautiful luxury shopping mall here in Orlando like something like the Aventura Mall in Miami or The American Dream Mall here, like a big mega mall, I believe it will be a astonishing idea especially in Central Florida’s boom. Like a mall that is indoor and a outdoor plaza with shops restaurants and entertainment. Hope this will happen soon. I was kind of sad when Isquare Mall wasn’t pushed thru.

Mr Whittall definitely is helping in ushering a more sophisticated upscale product other big cities have to the growing Central Florida area at pretty much the right time. He is leveling it up as it should be. As they say. Time is of the essence.

Hello Chuck, I would like to make some suggestions to make the suburbs of Orlando much better. I am in Winter Garden. We do not have a big gym that has an indoor pool or a walking track or a gym that is open 24 hours. Can you start a project in Horizon West with building a gym? We have too much restaurants here. We also need some bowling alleys that are new and modern. I do not want to go to Disney Springs and wait 2 hours to bowl for one hour.

Chuck, can we have more parks with tennis courts. We do not have many tennis courts in Winter Garden. Windermere has tennis courts but you have to be a Windermere resident in order to play tennis. It rains here alot and we need more indoor activities. We do not need more apartments. We need more single story houses that offers people to act like a community and plant themselves and not be transit residents in apartments

Chuck, I am a renter and my rent increased by $300 per month. I am a teacher in Orange County and earning less than $50K a year. I cannot afford the rent anymore. I am looking for a new job so I can increase my wages. Please hire me if you are so rich and think people are making big bucks and eating out. I do not eat out. I make my own food. I am not in the position to spend money on luxury items.
