ORLANDO-Entering metro Orlando’s apartment development market for the first time, Woodland Lakes Apartments LLC of Jacksonville, FL plans to break ground in May on a $22.3 million, 272-unit community in the mixed-use Woodland Lakes venture at Lake Underhill, Curry Ford and Alafaya Trail in east Orange County.

That hub is one of the most sought-after commercial and retail locations in this submarket, area brokers tell GlobeSt.com. The wholly owned subsidiary of Group IV Properties Inc. paid Bethesda, MD-based Lockheed Martin Corp. $2.23 million or $98,455 per acre ($2.26 per sf) for the prime 22.65-acre parcel.

The sale opens up a new development corridor in east Orange County as Lockheed Martin plans to sell all 911 acres surrounding Woodland Lakes. “This property will clear the way for new residential and commercial development along the fast-growing south Alafaya Trail corridor,” Orlando Central Park executive vice president Jeff Troan tells GlobeSt.com.
