When Mayor Dyer first took office in 2003, he convened the Downtown Strategic Task Force, a community volunteer committee to develop a road map for the future of Downtown Orlando. Ten years later, more than 140 of the task force’s original 166 recommendations are complete or in progress, resulting in 47 major projects representing $1.86 billion in investments. The largest of these projects was a package of three new community venues – the Amway Center, the Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts and a renovated Citrus Bowl.
