Beacham Theatre
Despite the new recognition for the theater by the City of Orlando, Mr. Juarez saw the building as a liability with many pleasant memories surrounding it, but with little economic potential. Citing maintaining the building and rehabilitation of the area, he first announced plans to raze the building for an unspecified mix-use purpose and later to redevelop the former Beacham Block with a new skyscraper that would be used as a combination office building and hotel. In 1988 Juarez received two successive approval Certificate of Appropriateness permits from the City of Orlando Board of Historic Preservation to demolish the Beacham Theatre within 180 days. The "Bye-bye Beacham Bash" was promptly organized by Orlando Remembered and attended by former theater doormen, ushers, candy girls, and cashiers on December 9, 1988. However, Mr. Juarez's redevelopment plan and the new construction of a 20-story office building and parking garage fell through at the last moment due to poor timing. Additional parking could have contributed to a revitalized downtown area, but the market for office space in Downtown Orlando was nearly saturated in the late 1980s and there was a general lack of interest from prospective future tenants. Had the project materialized, Mr. Juaraz would have been required to reconstruct a replica of the original Beacham Theatre facade using original building materials of brick, stucco, decorative tile, and pastel colors.
Patcham Place
Patcham Place stayed in the Stapley family until 1700, after which it passed through several owners (including George Nevill, 1st Earl of Abergavenny). During this time it was also used as the venue for local law enforcement, where the parish constable could take people suspected of crimes to be charged in the presence of a Justice of the Peace. Stanmer House in nearby Stanmer was also used for this purpose. In 1764, Major John Payne (or Paine) bought the house, and immediately set about extending and rebuilding it, eliminating all traces of the 16th-century structure. (The house has sometimes been incorrectly described as newly built in 1764, such was the extent of the revamp.) Payne and his descendants lived in the house for many years, but in 1926, as suburban residential development began to reach the old village of Patcham, Brighton Corporation (predecessor of the present Brighton and Hove City Council) bought the house and its grounds for £6,000 (£ in ). Two years later, Patcham was one of several parishes to be absorbed into the Borough of Brighton. In 1937 or 1939, the Corporation leased Patcham Place to the Youth Hostels Association; it was used as the Brighton area's youth hostel from then until 2007, when the lease ran out. Brighton and Hove City Council owned it thereafter. In January 2012, the council announced they were selling the lease to a company which would turn the building into a business and community centre.
It was subsequently sold off to Brighton-born businessmen Mark Ratcliffe, Chris Gargan and Peter McDonnell for £1.3 million on 22 February 2013.
