Kobé Japanese Steakhouse-tied group plans 9-story Mills 50 redevelopment

A former Dollar Tree location on Colonial Drive in Orlando’s Mills 50 district is being eyed for a mixed-use village that could include more than 300 dwelling units.

Developers are proposing a nine-story building with 301 apartments, 17 townhomes and 19 live/work units, plus a parking garage, on the lots that encompass 1840, 1904 and 1920 E. Colonial Drive, according to a request filed with the city of Orlando. The request seeks a density bonus of 150 units per acre for the 2.2-acre property.
