Building in Winter Haven
Residential development has expanded steadily around the city as growth pushes south and west out of the Orlando market, bringing production subdivisions and the infrastructure work that precedes them. The theme park and the hospitality around it add a smaller but steady stream of commercial and lodging construction.
Older Winter Haven, particularly near the lakes and the downtown, is a renovation market of an entirely different character, with an aging housing and commercial stock where the work is repair, replacement and adaptation rather than new building.
Water everywhere
A city built around a chain of lakes puts a lot of property on or near water, which brings docks, seawalls and shoreline work into ordinary residential construction, and brings drainage and elevation into ordinary site work. Those are the elements of a project most likely to be underestimated at the start.
