"We're proud to support JBL Development to bring this vision to life and deliver a community that combines intentional construction, modern amenities and an exceptional resident experience in one of Orlando's fastest-growing areas."

Additionally, The Gateway is directly adjacent to Airport Lakes Park, offering convenient access to soccer fields, a playground, and a scenic nature trail and boardwalk.

“Orlando deserves communities that feel as considered as they are connected,” states Michael Rem, P.E., Managing Partner, JBL Development. “With The Gateway, we set out to create a true retreat — elevated design, a lush natural setting, and amenities that bring people together — and to keep that experience within reach. That’s the standard we’re building to.”
