The much anticipated Grand Opening of West End Plaza (formerly Galleria Soma), 821 West Minneola Avenue, Clermont took place on Friday, June 16th with a ribbon cutting ceremony hosted by the South Lake Chamber of Commerce.
The rebranding included large handpainted murals on the entryway exterior walls that emulate local landmarks such as the Citrus Tower and the President’s Hall of Fame, both located on US-27 near Grand Highway in Clermont.
The exterior marquee sign has been updated to exhibit the plaza’s new logo. The interior has a fresh feel with a bright and open-air style floor plan that includes plenty of lighting and seating areas for leisurely dining or socializing with friends while enjoying one of the many beverage options that the market has to offer.
While the outside may still seem like a work in progress, the interior consists of many businesses that are open and ready for business. Businesses that are currently open are as follows:
- Lemont Coffee Lounge
- 4 Oak Lane Apparel
- Clermont Wine Outlet
- Cabana Caribbean Chicken
- Cosa Nostra Italian Street Food
