We’re excited to share one of the most promising new opportunities for future Street Corner franchisees: Catchlight Crossing, located in the heart of Orlando, Florida’s vibrant tourist corridor. This cutting-edge, multi-phase development is positioned to become the largest workforce housing community in the United States—and we believe Street Corner Urban Market could be an essential amenity for its 1,000+ residents and the surrounding community.
Why Catchlight Crossing?
Set along the highly trafficked Destination Parkway near the Orlando Convention Center and Hilton, Catchlight Crossing is more than a place to live—it’s a thoughtfully designed, pedestrian-friendly community built around accessibility, inclusion, and lifestyle.
The 4,225-square-foot retail space available for Street Corner offers prime visibility and access within the development. Construction is already underway, with vertical building beginning mid-2025 and completion projected for Q3–Q4 of 2026.
A Three-Phase Vision to Serve the Community
Catchlight Crossing will roll out in phases:
- Phase 1: 300 affordable apartments with integrated retail and a transit plaza.
- Phase 2: 400 workforce apartments coming shortly after Phase 1.
- Phase 3: 300 additional affordable apartments.
That’s 1,000 residential units in total—all within a walkable, transit-connected community.
A Built-In Customer Base and More
What sets Catchlight Crossing apart is the comprehensive support infrastructure designed for its residents:
- No-charge public parking in structured facilities
- Public art installations and vibrant open spaces
- Community Health Center offering full-service medical care
- Bezos Academy, a tuition-free Montessori school for income-qualified families
- UCF classroom space and additional retail offerings
Plus, adjacent developments will include a hotel, market-rate apartments, and a proposed multi-modal transit station linking Brightline and SunRail—boosting both foot traffic and visibility for retailers.
