Horian Plans New Face for Downtown Sanford

SANFORD, FL-This changing blue-collar community is about to get a new face, come September, when Seminole County developer Robert Horian and his Suncor Properties Inc. break ground on an estimated $36 million mixed-use project, 25 miles north of Downtown Orlando.

“Some of those estimates involve ancillary equipment, but we think we can do the entire project at about $100 per sf,” Horian tells GlobeSt.com. “It’s a challenging job but we look forward to getting it done.” Also planned is a 500-car parking garage for about $6.2 million.

The estimated cost of the residential and commercial components have been estimated by county planners at $13 million. The conference center, which would have 30,660 sf of meeting and exhibition space, is estimated at $17 million.
