Turner Selected for $500 Million Westcourt Orlando Mixed-Use Development

The 900,000-square-foot project developed by JMA Ventures will create a vibrant destination in downtown Orlando.

Turner Construction Company was selected by JMA Ventures to serve as the general contractor for Westcourt Orlando, a transformative 900,000-square-foot mixed-use development in Orlando adjacent to the Kia Center, home of the NBA’s Orlando Magic.

The $500 million development will offer a Kimpton hotel, high-rise residential units, Class A office space, retail, and a live entertainment venue. Designed to create a lively, walkable district, Westcourt Orlando will enhance connectivity and activity around one of the city’s premier sports and entertainment destinations.

“JMA Ventures has a clear vision for what Westcourt Orlando can become, and we're grateful for the opportunity to help bring it to life. A project like this demands coordination across dozens of trades working simultaneously on very different building types — that's the challenge we're built for. We're looking forward to putting a strong Central Florida workforce behind it,” said Jeff Justen, Vice President and General Manager, Turner Construction Company. 

Construction of Westcourt Orlando is expected to generate significant economic impact across the region. Early site activity is underway as the team moves toward full mobilization. At peak, the project could support approximately 800 workers onsite, representing roughly 1,600 direct construction jobs over the life of the project. In addition, the project will create opportunities for local subcontractors, with many trade partners expected to come from the Central Florida market. Work packages will be structured to encourage broad participation across multiple project components.
