In Orlando, no outdoor space is as well used as Lake Eola. Since 1888, the park has provided a bit of reprieve for those in downtown Orlando, but as the region grows, the park has struggled to keep up. Now welcoming more than three million visitors a year, the park is in desperate need of a facelift. Orlando is now in the process of developing a master plan for the park that will guide the park’s evolution for decades to come.
