Some exciting news from One Daytona....really can't wait for this great addition to Daytona Beach.
ONE DAYTONA, the proposed mixed use and entertainment destination across from Daytona International Speedway (DIS), is entertaining bids October 15 for an initial construction phase that represents infrastructure improvements on the 190-acre property. Designed by Zev Cohen & Associates, Inc. of Ormond Beach, the early site work plans were issued in September to a short-list of Central Florida firms, many located within Volusia County.
Pending approval by the joint venture and International Speedway Corporation’s (ISC) Board of
Directors, the contractor may begin the first phase of work as early as November. Construction
will include filling existing ponds, excavating new ponds and installing storm water drainage
piping to control site-wide drainage, along with rerouting fiber optic lines. In 2015, work will
commence on underground utility installation in preparation for vertical construction.
“The early site work will vastly improve the value of our land and maximize use of the property
as needed for DAYTONA Rising,” said Derek Muldowney, Executive Vice President, Design &
Development, ISC. “We plan to employ approximately 50 to 100 workers striving for as much
local representation as possible. We will treat this just as we did DAYTONA Rising.”
The early site work runs parallel to a Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) pedestrian
safety project currently underway along International Speedway Boulevard (ISB). A new 12-foot
sidewalk is being installed on the north and south sides of ISB from Williamson Boulevard to
Midway Avenue, along with a beautification project to include new roadway lighting, landscaping
and permanent fencing. The project also features a new pedestrian bridge just west of Ruby
Tuesday.
