A circa-'69 rendering of the mall-to-be. The existing SEMINOLE CENTER is seen on the right. A proposed enclosed concourse extends to the left. The concept of adding an interior mall to an existing strip center had been tried successfully at COLONIAL PLAZA in Orlando, and was also being done in Oakland, California.
Drawing from Seminole Center, Incorporated

In a circa-1971 site plan, the original section of SEMINOLE CENTER is indicated in black. This portion of the shopping hub was completed in November 1965. SEMINOLE MALL, dedicated in February 1970, is shown in gray.
