Walt Disney World has announced plans to partner with The Michaels Organization to create an attainable housing development in the Horizon West area of Winter Garden, Florida. The development will be located on Harzog Road, next to The Vintage at Horizon West and across from Braxton Waterleigh. Walt Disney World will provide approximately 80 acres of land for the project, which is located west of State Road 429 and just a few miles from Flamingo Crossings Town Center.
As a resident living next to where the development will be built, I believe this initiative will have a positive impact on our community. The development will offer affordable options for qualifying applicants within certain income levels, including Disney cast members, and is expected to include over 1,300 units. The property will be built and managed by The Michaels Organization, a developer with experience in creating affordable housing communities across the United States. The initiative will also create new jobs in the Central Florida community through the construction and ongoing operation of the property.
The development will support and build upon Orange County’s Housing for All action plan to address housing affordability for local residents. The groundbreaking is expected to take place next year, with the first units anticipated to be completed in 2026. This initiative is part of Walt Disney World’s commitment to invest in and care for the local community. Living in close proximity to where this development will be built, I am excited to see the positive impact it will have on our community. The development will not only provide affordable housing options for those in need, but it will also create jobs and support the local economy. I look forward to seeing the development take shape and the positive impact it will have on the Horizon West area of Winter Garden.
