History

The city also boasted its own airport, essentially a single runway grass airstrip for local private airplanes, on the west side of the city on the north side of State Road 434, until it was closed and developed into tract housing that became The Woodlands subdivision in the mid-1960s. The development and opeing of Walt Disney World in October 1971, along with other tourist attractions and the high technology corridor of businesses near Florida Technogical University (FTU), now the University of Central Florida (UCF), fueled even further growth. Henck began making horseback trips to search for a route for a railroad linking Sanford and Orlando, then a mere trading post. As far as American Colonial history goes, Longwood as well as most of Seminole County, shares its frontier beginnings with the early settlement of Orange, Lake, Brevard, Volusia and Osceola Counties that make up the Orlando Metro Area. He also supplied labor and material for buildings at Rollins College.
