Luxury Highrise Penthouse Suite Could Become Orlando’s Newest, Classiest Night Club

ORLANDO, Fla. --- A 9,470 square foot penthouse space and 10,000 square foot sky terrace patio overlooking Lake Eola could become downtown Orlando’s most luxurious night club if Roger Soderstrom, founder and owner of Stirling Sotheby’s International Realty gets his way. Stirling Sotheby’s International Realty currently represents the space on the 16th floor of The Plaza’s North Tower on S. Orange Avenue at Pine Street, and Soderstrom said his group is talking to local, national and international night club operators. “We have had interest in the penthouse and the feedback we’ve been getting from the industry is that the space is one of the best in the region for this type of use,” Soderstrom said. Soderstrom said his nightclub proposal could heat up quickly, especially if any of Orlando’s burgeoning sports entertainment enterprises---from Orlando Magic to Orlando City Soccer to the Orlando Renegades---see their pictures improve. Downtown Orlando’s performing arts center could also kick-start the club, Soderstrom said. “As the local economy improves we believe the Plaza’s North Tower Penthouse could emerge as one of the region’s premier leisure and entertainment venues,” Soderstrom said. Soderstrom said Stirling Sotheby’s International Realty commercial specialist John Kurtz is handling the leasing arrangements for the property. Kurtz said the lease agreement includes a full event kitchen, board room, conference area, TV monitors, patio furniture and bar with elegant elevator foyer, reception center, full prep kitchen, air-conditioned computer room and other features. Lease rate, according to Kurtz, is $28 per square foot plus electric and janitorial services.
