Universal Studio guests will be treated to 2 Mannheim Steamroller Christmas concerts on December 6th, 2008 in celebration of the Holidays.  The concerts, staged in the New York area of the park will be at 6 and 8 p.m.  Concerts will include music from that Grinch show, Steamroller hits and selections from the group’s new CD, Christmasville.  The concerts will be included in regular theme-park admission.

Many Olrando residents are annual pass holders and enjoy the convinence of visiting the theme-parks during special events like the one above.  For those who live in the Southwest Orlando area, its even better because Universal Studios is within a short driving distance to the theme-park.

The Orlando Sentinel reported today that with condominiums selling for less than single-family homes, the condo-heavy MetroWest area racked up more new residential closings than any community in Metro Orlando during the first half of this year.  MetroWest is located in Southwest Orlando, a part of the Orlando real estate.

Baldwin Park in northeast Orlando was the second-busiest for closings between January and the end of June, with 81 properties — condos and single-family homes — sold, for an average price of $441,600 apiece.  Balwdwin Park, a planned Florida community  is located a little over two miles from downtown Orlando.  Its convenient location to the city’s workplaces, restaurants, cultural attractions and entertainment and sports venues makes it a very popular community.

Of the 20 communities with the most new-home or new-condo closings in Orange, Seminole, Lake and Osceola counties and part of nearby Polk, 12 were in Orange County, with two in each of the other counties.
