Orange County approved a $49 million plan for the new animal shelter in September.
The building will feature two floors, with dog kennels and play areas on the first floor and feline care and housing on the second.
Officials said the facility will feature a modern design that fosters a "welcoming environment dedicated to the humane treatment, respect and protection of all animals."
It will be the largest animal shelter in Florida once construction is completed.
