Lincoln Property Company Southeast to Market Valencia College’s Chicone Building in Downtown Orlando, FL

ORLANDO, FL (Sept. 19, 2012) – After purchasing a Metrowest property that will assist Valencia College in centralizing and economizing its key administrative functions, Valencia Foundation is offering its historic Chicone Building (top left photo) for sale or competitive lease.

Located on the corner of what realtors refer to as “Main and Main,” the building at Church Street and Orange Avenue – also known as Valencia Downtown Center – is the sole original structure on that corner. The towers of SunTrust, Seaside and the Plaza occupy the rest of the intersection.

Lincoln Property Company is marketing the property, which offers a prestigious address at 190 South Orange Avenue, outstanding access to downtown nightlife and a bit of timeless charm. The 28,716-square-foot space can potentially be used for residences or offices and also is well-suited for ground-floor retail, as it once housed a pharmacy.

“We are excited to have landed this assignment and to be marketing a property that is close to the hearts of so many Orlando residents,” said Joe Rossi (lower right photo)  senior vice president of investment sales at Lincoln. “It is a special building in a hard-to-beat location, and we look forward to talking with potential buyers about it.”

Constructed in 1930, the building is a notable part of Orlando’s downtown history. It is an Orlando Historic Landmark included in the Downtown Historical Preservation District and is a regular stop on walking tours. In fact, it was the site of the city’s very first bank robbery in 1947 when it was the site of First National Bank and Trust Company.
