Managing Partner John SanFelippo of The Block — the name of the group of venues that includes Beacham, The Social, The Corner, Aero, Patio, 64 North and Planet Pizza — has hired Orlando-based Dap Design to help transform the connected venues at the corner of East Washington Street and North Orange Avenue.
A redesign of the façade integrates the now disparate clubs and bars into a unified vision. An exterior rendering shown to Orlando Business Journal conveyed a modern deco style, and SanFelippo said a final version will be released once he has approvals from the city of Orlando. Then, work will commence without delay.
