Cypress Gardens Corridor – Growth and Development
• The CGC has continued to grow in sync with the expansion of the LEGOLAND theme park as it brings new jobs, visitors, and consumers into the area
• In the last several years, a number of national tenants have made their way into the CGC such as Chipotle, Starbucks, Walmart, among others
• All of this has contributed to making Winter Haven, especially in the CGC a more livable destination
• LEGOLAND has recently announced yet another expansion plan encompassing over 50 acres less than a mile from the subject site along Lake Dexter
• Plans include over 160 duplexes, two pools, and a 12,000 square foot clubhouse to lodge guests for the park - http://www.fox13news.com/news/local-news/88982455-story
Legoland and Area InformationLegoland Florida opened in October of 2011 and is the world’s second largest Legoland park. Legoland Florida is a 145-
acre, full two-day interactive family theme park specifically designed for families with children ages 2 to 12. It features more
than 50 rides, shows, and attractions, restaurants, shopping, a breathtaking botanical garden and a water park.
The park has had very strong attendance and, although the park does not release attendance figures, attendance at the
six Legoland parks worldwide rose by 33 percent, from 7.9 million to 10.5 million, in 2012. Estimates put the annual
attendance figures for the Winter Haven location at over 1.5 million annually. The park has expanded twice already, first
opening a water park and later a new “signature land” called the World of Chima. The Central Florida Visitor’s Center reports that 25% of their ticket sales are for the Legoland theme park.

Legoland has recently completed its third
expansion to the park and opened its Lego-
Themed hotel in 2015. By May of that same year,
they had already sold 40% of the inventory
available through the end of year at a rate nearly
triple the County’s average ADR. There is a
strong demand for modern hotels, as over 70
percent of the hotel rooms in the area are substandard.

“Dr. Harris notes 6 key findings from his work studying the corridor:
1. The corridor TODAY could support at least 240 net new limited service hotel rooms given the
existing demand (editorial note: this number is disputed by people in the industry as too low given
the other drivers such as the increase demand in sporting events and business industry growth, but
remember that's TODAY. See next line)
2. There is a significant demand that could be captured such that the need for hotel rooms could
exceed 1,200 net new rooms by 2025. ”

“The hotel's opening completes a significant shift from a day attraction to a multiday destination, Jones said.
Initial hotel bookings indicate there was demand for that change.
Already, the park has sold nearly 40 percent of the available inventory from now until the end of the year.”
