Orlando’s Glow-Up: From Brick Roads to Big City Lights 🌆✨
In the early 1900s, Orlando was unrecognizable.
Brick roads, horse-drawn carriages, and family-run shops filled the streets.
🚂 Church Street was the city’s pulse—where trains rolled in and local theaters lit up the night.
Fast forward to the 1960s–70s:
🚧 Highways came. Skyscrapers went up. Downtown started growing.
Then everything changed in 1971, when Walt Disney World opened its gates.
Orlando didn’t just grow—it exploded.
🎶 Nightlife, food, concerts, culture—this city became more than just a tourist stop.
Now?
High-rise condos
Creative workspaces
Murals and public art everywhere
And Lake Eola, once a quiet neighborhood lake, is now a cultural hub.
Orlando has gone from small-town charm to big-city energy—while still holding onto pieces of its past.
