The Best Place to Live? Winter Park!

Art and music. History and architecture. Natural charm and vibrant culture. Whether you’re a lifelong “Winter Parker” or an out-of-towner, our city has something for everyone – and lately, it’s been getting better than ever.

Here at The Mayflower, we’ve had a front-row seat to the improvements bringing fresh air and fresh beauty to our hometown: from a comprehensive refresh of Park Avenue to new spaces for recreation, business, and culture.

Among the highlights:

• A more vibrant shopping district. Through new initiatives like the Park Avenue Refresh Project, the city is investing in the charm and vitality of the elegant downtown district—making it greener, cleaner and more walkable, with wider sidewalk curbs and redesigned benches and streetlamps.
• More greenspace. Another “breath of fresh air” arrived earlier this year with the grand opening of the 2.4-acre Seven Oaks Park on Orange Avenue, an outdoor oasis in the heart of the city. The park encompasses lush garden areas, walking paths, and  open spaces for pop-up events and public gatherings.
• A bright future for growth. As economic development and investment fuels growth and opportunity along Orlando Avenue, there’s more to look forward to in the years ahead.

Since The Mayflower opened our doors, we’ve been proud of our community roots and we’ve done our part to keep our historic city thriving. That commitment is at the heart of our lasting relationships with local organizations, from the Winter Park Chamber of Commerce to the Bach Festival Society.

When you live on our campus, you’ll have a front-row seat to the best Winter Park has to offer: guest performers and expert speakers from local arts organizations; behind-the-scenes tours and community excursions; and you’ll be just minutes from downtown and beautiful Park Avenue.

At the same time, you’ll enjoy all the advantages of an environment designed around you: offering world-class amenities, maintenance-free living, and stimulating programs and classes, right at your doorstep.  

“There’s so much research to show that being part of a community helps you feel better physically, mentally, and just gives you a better outlook on life,” says Mayflower resident Jane Lapple. “At The Mayflower, all of that is built in!”
