FROM DOWNTOWN HISTORY TO OLYMPIC LEGENDS
Just 20 miles west of Walt Disney World in Orlando, the city of Clermont was named one of the Top 20 Cities in America “Leading the Way” in economic development and quality of life. With a strong focus on tourism, Clermont has undergone tremendous growth—both in population and in economy. The city also celebrates its history and is the location of the 226-foot-tall Florida Citrus Tower, one of the first constructed landmarks in the state, having been built in 1956.
While Clermont’s historic downtown district hasn’t changed much over the past 50 years, visitors love the variety of unique shops, businesses, restaurants and hotels. In Clermont, FL, other notable downtown locations include the Art League, the Clermont City Center, Clermont City Hall, and the Historic Village at the west end. Nearby, you’ll find the 69,000-square-foot Clermont Arts & Recreation Center—which includes the county’s largest performance hall, and the Clermont Performing Arts Center, with its 1,200-seat capacity Main Stage that has featured Broadway musicals and acts such as Celtic Nights and the New Shanghai Circus.
One of Clermont’s most unique attractions is the 10-mile Clay Loop, which provides a traffic-free, soft surface and scenic views for long-distance runners from beginners to Olympians. Some of the elite athletes who live and/or train in Clermont include Olympic medalists, a Hall of Fame bowler, and the oldest professional woman IRONMAN winner.
