Waller Plaza on South Florida Avenue gets a facade and sign refresh

Where it is. On South Florida Avenue, about 750 feet from La Pinata and about 0.2 miles from Reececliff Family Diner. Distance measured from map data, October 2026.

Two of the places within a quarter mile, nearest first; the nearest large store is kept when there is one. Straight-line distance between the mapped points. Restaurant locations geocoded from the Florida DBPR active food-service licence file, read Oct 15, 2026.

A downtown-area commercial building owned by Waller Development is getting exterior work and new signs, with a city grant helping fund it.

Waller Plaza at 801 Florida Avenue S is a commercial property owned by Waller Development. Records show a $60,000 remodel permit for work on the building's west elevation, along with two sign face changes that have already been completed.

The property sits in a historic review area, so the sign work went through the city's Historic Preservation Board, which issued a certificate of review. A CRA grant tied to the address shows funds have been disbursed, meaning the project drew on a downtown redevelopment incentive.

The records don't describe a tenant or a change in use — this reads as a building and signage refresh rather than a new development.

What happens next

The west-elevation remodel permit is issued; the sign changes are already finaled. Watch for the remodel work to be finaled.
