Citrus Tower

Built on one of the highest hills in the central ridge section of Florida, original owner, Mr. Harper, had a vision for the future. Eventually, that vision became a reality. On July 14, 1956, the official opening of the Citrus Tower was held for the very first time! In the years that followed, hundreds of thousands of visitors ascended the tower to the 360-degree panoramic Observation Deck to see approximately 35 miles in any direction. As years rolled on, there was another man with a vision, Mr. Messer, who had a dream of creating an establishment that would house education, community, and the revival of culture. In 2022, he purchased the Citrus Tower, led by a fabulous grand re-opening!

Enjoy our newly-renovated banquet hall, decked with chandeliers and beautiful decor. The banquet hall was designed to mimic the most luxurious hotel in the State of Israel—the King David Hotel. Invite your guests to a private space at the top of the Citrus Tower, and enjoy the breathtaking panoramic views and sunsets.
