Wendover Moves Forward on Affordable Orlando Project

Wendover Housing Partners has released new images of Catchlight Crossings, a 1,000-unit affordable and mixed-income housing community in Orlando, Fla. Construction started earlier this month, with the first phase expected to come online in 2026.

The pedestrian-oriented master plan is the result of Universal Destinations & Experiences’ Housing for Tomorrow program, designed to address the need for economically diverse and affordable housing. The theme park company donated the 20-acre land and selected Wendover as developer and manager of the nine-building live-work-play community. A total of 75 percent of the units will be reserved to households earning 60 percent or less of the area median income.
