The Orlando Business Journal invites you on a photo tour of Storey Park, a new Lennar community with some fun and unique street names. Here’s the “storey” from Jim Carchidi.
You may know not to judge a book by its cover, but what about buying a house based on the address?
Lennar Homes’ Storey Park community, east of State Road 417 at Dowden Road, opened for sales in December. Work crews currently are at various stages of construction on 65 of the community’s 2,700 lots that will offer four different sizes of single-family homes as well as townhomes.
Aside from the activity, nifty new designs and inviting decor, Storey Park boasts more than a few stupendous street names.
I have three words for you: Science Fiction Lane. This hooked me. I own a home and had no desire to brave the horrors of moving – until I saw the sign that read Science Fiction Lane.
But the tale didn’t end with that fantasy. How does Mythology Street grab you? It might sound like an emo band name, but it makes a heck of an address. Writing out Mythology Street on a Christmas card envelope might inspire a twinge of envy. If anyone mails actual cards anymore.
Just down the road, however, there was a street sign to put all others to shame. Even in this neighborhood: Thriller Lane.
No. Way.
You don’t have to be a child of the ’80s or even a Michael Jackson fan to appreciate the awesomeness of this address.
Hey, I’m going to a Halloween party at the house on Thriller Lane, wanna go?
Yes. A thousand times, yes.
