There is so much bullsh!te in this posting that it's hard to wade through it all. No idea where this "section 8 housing right under the overpass" is. Are you talking about the projects, where Wesley Snipes used to live, that were inside of the East-West exit spiral? Yeah, that was torn down a...

Church Street - Chillers/Big Belly Brewery/Latitudes is a great spot, the first couple of floors are just OK, but the rooftop bar is a great place to hang out. I also like the German bar right next to it (Schumann's). Orlando City Soccer Club has a bar on the other side of the RR tracks called...

For the record... Traffic into the game will be easy. The stadium only holds about 65K, and it's nearly at the corner of I-4 and a toll expressway. Getting out will be harder, as it will be dark and a lot of the official parking lots are fenced, not well-marked, and often have only 1 exit...

I'm not trying to mess with you, but Google Maps has the walk from the Embassy Suites (south of Lake Eola) to the Citrus Bowl at 1.8 miles. Are you sure it's not taking you to the Orlando City Soccer Stadium, which is also just off Central? From your comment on the "huge *** police station...

Absolutely. One of my best friends from HS lived in ColonialTown (north of Colonial, west of Bumby) in the late 90s when he was a sportswriter for the Orlando Sentinel. He had an easy commute (though he later moved to SoDo, east of Orange, south of Michigan). I go through your area all the...

Look, I LOVE CaneinOrlando, but I think he is underselling the walk quite a bit. From Lake Eola, just walking due west, it is a half-mile to I-4 and then another mile to the stadium. Just check it on Mapquest. Pre-game, you can break it up by heading to Orange Avenue/Church Street first, and...

FYI, Washington crossed the Delaware.

Man, the soccer stadium is a half-mile east of the stadium. You are more like 1.5 miles east and .5 miles north, unless ColonialTown has expanded. There are a few nice spots at the 1-mile edge of the radius, but this guy who says it's Mad Max is ridiculous. I walk to the soccer stadium for...

I think that is the area where a bunch of attorneys bought the land and are building new apartments/condos. See if there is anything along Edgewater, north of Colonial. VERY nice.

Go up to Church Street. It's a bit of a walk, but it will be completely safe. Pedi-cabs if you don't want to walk.

North of Colonial, around Edgewater...people forget that "the hood" gets really nice really quickly. Same in Miami.
