Cities across America have them , and they ’ re so well-known , they ’ re destinations unto themselves . From The Magnificent Mile in Chicago to Rodeo Drive in Los Angeles to Times Square in New York City , they ’ re places people want to be and be seen . Even locally , it ’ s Ormond ’ s Historic Arts District on Granada Boulevard and St . George Street in St . Augustine that are among the area ’ s notable destinations .
At the heart of each of these destinations , whether it ’ s a building , tower , theater or bridge , there is one iconic location that serves as the anchor around which all others orbit . With an exquisitely modern architectural design , the clean , crisp lines of the retail , restaurant and office space in the Town Center Development will make it the cornerstone of Town Center ’ s Entertainment District .
Strategically located within the City of Palm Coast ’ s Innovation District , the Entertainment District is part of the designated Opportunity Zone , where Kickstart Innovation District incentives , in place through December 31 , 2021 , have helped to stimulate the desired economic development as identified by the city ’ s ‘ live , work , play ’ vision for Town Center .
With more than a thousand families slated to call the district home within the next two years and the creation of a variety of residential developments either completed or currently underway , the area is primed for groundbreaking retail , restaurant , and office / business opportunities .
The Entertainment District parcel design allows for Phase I , II and III to develop in a way that complements the community ’ s steady growth by offering local business owners and entrepreneurs an opportunity to become investors in their own community .
“ People want to buy and own . You can buy a 20 x 55 square ft . building [ and ] get your construction loan going to own it . You own wall to wall , alley to alley , lot line to lot line with your neighbor ,” said Walker Douglas , broker associate for Douglas Property & Development .
“ What that does is that it keeps money in Palm Coast . Instead of paying rent to Wall Street , your investment stays right here and you control your own destiny .”
Envisioning what is and what can be Town Center Entertainment District plans incorporates feedback from Flagler County ’ s next gen population into the design features to complement the mix of office , business , retail , and dining .
Featured prominently at the four corners of City Place and Central Avenue , a centralized leisure and entertainment space offers visitors and residents a place to meet , relax or gather .
