Lake Nona

First light on a cypress lake: mist on still water, a weathered dock and a lone egret at the far edge.

The newest corner of the region: modern houses, a medical campus, long trails and lakes edged with cypress, a short drive from the airport.

The setting

Lake Nona grew up around a cluster of lakes southeast of the city. Much of the shoreline has been left to cypress and grasses, with trails and boardwalks along the water.

Daily life

A medical campus, a large tennis center, a town center with restaurants, and walking and cycling paths that tie most of it together.

The houses

Modern and transitional houses, nearly all built in the last fifteen years, from village streets to lakefront lots with docks.

Drawn by hand, not to survey scale.
