Green District Files Master Plan to Redevelop Orlando’s Parramore as a 20‑Acre Smart City

The developer says the Live Local Act filing aims to deliver dense affordable housing and integrated EV and eVTOL transport while the plan awaits city review and financing.

Overview

  • The Green District Smart City Live Local Master Plan was filed with the City of Orlando this week and begins formal review under Florida’s Live Local Act.
  • The developer describes a roughly 20‑acre mixed‑use district with about 2,000 residential units and 700–800 hotel keys, a claim that city approvals and financing must confirm.
  • Two proposed Smart Hub parking structures at 17 N. Westmoreland Drive and 320 W. Clear Lake Street would combine parking, retail, multimodal transit and EV charging.
  • The filing includes a proposed rooftop vertiport and names Eve Air Mobility and i‑charging USA as preferred mobility partners and Cooper Carry as design lead, though federal and local aviation approvals remain separate from the city review.
  • Timothy Green frames the plan as economic and cultural investment for historically underinvested Parramore, and the developer says a summer 2027 groundbreaking is the target if permits and funding close.
