As the work on constructing a giant observation wheel at the International Drive is going on in full swing, the tourist corridor of Orlando has a lot of things to look forward to. The word was, that the overall project, that the observation wheel is a part of, is to be named the Orlando Eye 360 by its developers. The news was, however, brushed off by developers as they prepare to make an official announcement soon.
Merlin Entertainments Ltd. is working on a couple of attractions for the state and come 2015, the second-largest operator of visitor attractions in the world will unveil three attractions – the Orlando chapter of Madame Tussaud’s wax museum, the Orlando Eye and the Sea Life Orlando Aquarium.
The three attractions are part of a massive Orlando real estate project – the construction of a towering complex for shopping, dining and entertainment, that is being developed by NY-based Circle Entertainment Inc. and Orlando’s own Unicorp National Developments Inc. The multimillion-dollar Orlando Eye project on the International Drive (projected to cost over $200 million) is planned to be completed in phases – work in certain phases is already over.
For instance, the real estate agents in Orlando reveal that the International Drive will see Orlando’s first Yard House open for business on April 24. The popular restaurant adds to I-Drive’s impressive line of new and upcoming restaurants including Cooper’s Hawk Winery & Restaurant, BJ’s Brewhouse and the Red Robin. Local real estate agents believe that the Yard House alone would bring around 200 jobs to the I-Drive area in the form of servers, hosts, hostesses, line cooks and bar tenders to name a few. Not to mention, new and better dining options for the area’s tourist corridor.
The project was developed with Orlando’s tourism industry in mind. International Drive’s convention area will get some much-needed entertainment, wining-dining and leisure options after the project ends. It will boost the tourism industry of the area that is currently valued at about $50 billion. The entire project will also boost employment in the area as it is expected to brings thousands of new jobs.
Merlin Entertainments is planning for a press event, to be hosted later this month, during which developer Unicorp plans to unveil the new name of the project. While speculations were high in the Orlando real estate scene that the project would be named the “Icon Park”, Chuck Whittall, the President of Unicorp denied, saying the firm would announce a different name.
The name has become a special area of interest, particularly because of the frequent changes made to it. Previously it had names like the I-Drive Live and I-Walk Orlando associated with it. Only Unicorp can tell what new moniker the project will adopt.

According to a report released by the US Census Bureau on Thursday, March 27, “The Villages” is the fastest-growing metropolitan area in the US. The population census report reveals that over the 12-month period spanning from July 2012 to July 2013 – The Villages registered an impressive population growth of 5.2 percent, the highest in the US.
The top 10 fastest-growing metropolitan areas
1. The Villages, Florida
2. Midland, Texas
3. Odessa, Texas
4. Bismarck, North Dakota
5. Fargo, North Dakota
6. Casper, Wyoming
7. Myrtle Beach, South Carolina
8. Austin, Texas
9. Daphne, Alabama
10. Fort Myers, Florida
Technically, The Villages is not a metropolitan city, but only an unincorporated community of retirement homes, stretching across the Sumter, Marion and Lake counties. It is, however, widely acknowledged as a city since it is home to more than 107,000 citizens. This is nearly twice as much as the benchmark population of cities (50,000 people).
According to top Orlando realtors, the 5.2 percent increase in population can be attributed to the community’s improving facilities for seniors. Real estate agents who have worked in The Villages have revealed that the community has been witnessing a surge in the number of seniors and retirees. Warm temperatures, selection of executive golf courses, parks, fitness trailers, and the increasing number of “Neighborhood” and “Regional Centers” are some of the factors influencing this trend.
Six areas around the Greater Plains and the metropolitan region near the Gulf Coast were included among the 10 fastest-growing cities. The cities include Odessa, Austin-Round Rock and Midland in Texas, Fargo in Minnesota, and Bismarck and Casper. Rich in oil and gas, these metros witnessed a rapid growth in population primarily because of the energy boom.
The recent report has left Orlando realtors with fresh hopes and a positive outlook for the rest of 2014 with respect to the real estate market in Central Florida.
Baby boomers from all over the nation are flocking to Florida’s much-talked-about retirement homes just northwest of Orlando. Further, residential projects like the $56 million apartment complex at Crescent Central Station, the 800 luxury apartments to be constructed by BentleyForbes Del American, and the Winter Park Village projects, are expected to bring in a lot of business for Orlando realtors.

Just bought a house with a beautiful yard? Getting a sprinkler system installed is step number one to keep your yard looking great. When you have a sprinkler system, you don’t have to worry about remembering to water your lawn, watering too much, or watering too little. The automated system will take care of everything for you. Having a system professionally installed can be costly. You can save big by using these tips to install your new sprinkler system yourself.
You need to know exactly where you will be installing your system and sprinkler heads before you start digging in your yard. Make sure that your design gives a proper amount of water to each area of your yard. For instance, the section of your yard that is in direct sunlight probably needs more watering than the shady area underneath an oak tree.
Your installation job will go much more smoothly if you gather all of the necessary equipment and supplies before you begin. It is frustrating to have to stop in the middle of the job to purchase a tool, so take a few minutes to ensure that you have everything you need. Along with the sprinkler system, you will likely need pipes and fittings, shovels, trench tools, wrenches and screwdrivers, work gloves, safety goggles, and a pipe-cutting saw.
If there is an old sprinkler system currently installed in your yard, remove all of the pieces before adding anything new. Instead of just throwing everything away, check to see if any of the parts are still useful. If any of the non-working parts are made of copper or other metals, you can sell them as scrap metal to make a few extra dollars to add to your project’s budget.
Once you have completed all of your prep work, you are ready to begin installing your new system. First, you will need to install the controller and valve box, and then you can start placing the sprinkler heads. Work in one zone of your yard at a time, and check the water pressure for each section before you move on to another area.
After your system is installed, it is a good idea to test it several times to ensure that it is working properly. Thanks to your hard work, your yard will be lush and well-watered year-round with minimal effort.

When viewing different homes in Orlando, it’s important to look for signs of trouble. Although you’ll want to find a home that is aesthetically pleasing, you’ll also want to ensure that it doesn’t have any problems below the surface. A house should be properly inspected from basement to rooftop before you decide that you want to make it your home.
Foundation’s Condition
Cracks in the basement can indicate foundation damage. Tilted basement walls may show signs of foundation sinking due to soft ground or poor soil composition. Termites may destroy the wooden parts of a home’s lower levels. For example, the beams of a basement’s ceiling may appear to be chewed up in the presence of termites.
Water Damage
Musty smells and water stains in a basement imply the presence of mold. This is often a result of previous flooding or some sort of leak from the surrounding soil or plumbing. Mold causes various respiratory hazards and it can spread quickly in humid conditions. Colored stains on the walls of a basement indicate the previous existence of mold that can return. Water damage can also ruin some of the electrical wirings that is often installed in the lower levels of a home. Even if the water has been properly cleaned out, this could be a sign that it could easily flood again in the future.
Climate Control System
A home with a central HVAC system needs to be checked thoroughly because it provides both heating and cooling and it’s used all year long. The outdoor A/C unit should be checked along with the indoor furnace. Unusual sounds coming from the vents and ducts in an HVAC system indicate problems with the air filters, fans, and other mechanical components. The thermostat should be tested to ensure that the HVAC system responds immediately to heat up or cool a home. If there is a problem with the system, a company in Orlando can diagnose the problem and estimate how much it will cost to repair. Knowing repair costs in advance can help you determine if you are willing to buy the home “as is.”
Rise to the Rooftop
A leaky roof is a very serious issue that needs to be inspected before buying a home. Old shingles may have significant wear and tear that causes leaks to all upper levels of a house. Inside a home, a leaky roof can be detected if bulges or pockets of water are seen in the ceilings and corner walls. Roof replacement is expensive, so it’s important to negotiate this into the cost of the home.
Pest Problems
A home inspection should also look for signs of pests. Rodents, raccoons, and squirrels can make themselves comfortable in the attic or crawl space of a home. These creatures leave droppings that carry disease. Additionally, such pests can destroy the structure of a home such as insulation and wooden studs or beams. The presence of pests also indicates major openings and cracks in the exterior of a home.
There is an array of possible problems that can exist in a home. Prospective buyers should carefully consider looking at the interior and exterior of a house that’s for sale. Don’t fall in love with a home until a throughout inspection. You want to make sure that your investment will house you and your family for years.
