Welcome to Delaney Park, one of Orlando’s classic “old Florida” neighborhoods just south of downtown. Think brick streets, towering oaks, and a real front-porch community vibe instead of cookie-cutter subdivisions.

You’re minutes from the SoDo district, Orlando Health’s medical campus, and all the restaurants, shops, and venues of downtown, but when you turn onto these streets it feels calmer, quieter, and a little bit timeless. The centerpiece is Delaney Park itself, one of Orlando’s oldest parks, with ball fields, playgrounds, and shaded walking paths that stay busy with neighbors, kids, and dogs. Homes here range from 1920s bungalows and classic mid-century houses to thoughtfully updated newer construction, so you’ll see a mix of architectural styles on every block. Many properties sit under mature oaks or near the area’s small lakes, and the neighborhood feeds into highly regarded local schools like Blankner K-8 and Boone High.

If you want a true in-town neighborhood where you can be at your favorite downtown restaurant, the hospital campus, or I-4 in just a few minutes—and still come home to quiet streets and evening walks under the trees—Delaney Park should be on your short list.
