Unicorp National Developments is set to start work soon on a third luxury apartment community within its nearly 350-acre O-Town West mixed-use site near Universal theme parks.

CEO Chuck Whittall told GrowthSpotter that he expects to submit application materials to Orange County in the coming weeks for a “super high-end” multifamily community at the end of Daryl Carter Parkway, on the opposite side of Apopka Vineland Road. Rent for the 200 units will start in the $3,000 range, he said.

In the summer of 2020, the Carter Center for Academic Success, formerly known as the Academic Resources Center, received a facelift thanks to alumnus Maury Carter ’53 and his family.

“Seven siblings from my generation were Ferrum scholars,” said Carter. “Ferrum College provided more than a college textbook education. Taught there was an outstanding education, but equally important: compassion.”

“It is an exciting time for those of us who work in the Carter Center for Academic Success,” said Dean of Student Success and Assistant Professor David Wiggins. “Now the Carter Center is even more beautiful and functional. The students are thankful for a place where they can study individually or collectively, get peer-assisted tutoring, and learn new skills to help them with their academic success. We are very grateful to the Carter family for their gift.”
