Developers have broken ground on Wyld Oaks, a 215-acre mixed-use project in Apopka, Florida, in northwest metro Orlando. The project reportedly represents an approximately $1.2 billion total investment.
The master developer is Kelly Park VB Development LLC, a subsidiary of Vero Beach-based Evans Properties. Joseph Beninati serves as development coordinator. Currently, Colliers is slated to handle retail and multifamily leasing, and CBRE will handle office leasing.
Sited at 4105 Golden Gem Road, the development is just off the newly completed 429 Beltway and W. Kelly Park Road Interchange, about 27 miles from downtown Orlando.
At full build-out, Wyld Oaks will include up to 200,000 square feet of retail and 11 outparcels. Additionally, two hotels, possibly one each of budget-friendly and boutique options. On the housing front, up to 4,000 multifamily apartment and condominium residences will be available for lease or purchase. Up to 200,000 square feet of office space spread across two sites will increase convenience to those who both live and work within Wyld Oaks. Outdoors, the master-planned development will include an expansive outdoor entertainment venue as well as two green spaces: Yonder, a 10-acre park and preserve with a dog park, and Wyld Green, which will include an extensive multi-use trail network.
