We weren't impressed by the mall in Ocala so I don't get to go up there anymore. Not running all that way just for Hobby Lobby. Come on developers!! There is all that nice land next to lowes being worked...whats going in there??
What is Hobby Lobby anyways? We just got one in our town.

Hobby Lobby is a wonderful chain store. Much like Michaels, Jo Ann's fabric and Home Goods wrapped into one.
Great store for decorating ideas etc! Wonderful concept, good quality!

The major demographic that developers and retail stores are seeking is the 25 yrs. and younger. I am using Trader Joe"s as an example. Check their own web site for verification.

There is a huge open mall just off the turnpike heading south. It's at the exit that goes to Disney World. I believe it's in Winter Garden and I think the route number is 429. Huge area and probably 150-200 stores. It's a little over 30 minute drive, but that's about how long it takes to get to Ocala and my wife says it's much better than Paddock Mall.

Antrim Dells
Antrim Dells is a 500,000 square feet power center in the development phase that will neighbor Brownwood on State Rd 44.

Antrim Dells is the same ones that have the Dillard's mall in Ocala. I have heard if we do get a mall it won't be a large or enclosed mall. But who knows, if ... when... or what stores.
Antrim Dells at SR 44/Buena Vista Blvd/Heritage Blvd was a proposed mall at one time. Currently, the property is up for sale. Oxford Real Estate, Oxford Homes, Oxford Investment Property - Oxford Land Company

I think you have identified the wrong parcel. I believe that Antrim Dells is intended to be built in the area west of Brownwood which is incorrectly labeled Central Florida Health Alliance Hospital.

You are correct. Antrim Dells is a section that is west of Brownwood with RT 44 on the south and 44a on the north. It is west of Powell Rd. There use to be a section on TV Commercial web page all about it. I just did a quick search and did not find it now. It was also mentioned in previous posts here on TOTV.

As for whether we need more shopping, if you live near 466a you would find that we are very limited for retail stores and they are all very far away. We have to drive 10 mins to pick up something we need at the grocery. We have to drive 25 mins to Kohls, Best Buy, Home Depot, Target, etc. In a golf cart you can double that time. We spend way too much time in the car and way too much money on gas since the only gas station down here is usually 5-10 cents higher per gallon since they have no competition.I wonder how you would feel if you were in this situation? Sweetbay and Publix will both have stores there which will cut our time in half and hopefully take some of the pressure off the stores at Colony Plaza. The Publix there does a million dollars of business per week and anyone who has ever shopped there can tell you what a zoo it is getting through the store. It is way over crowded, under stocked (probably due to the volume,) and does not have anywhere the selection the Publix stores on 441 have.
I guess the "nefarious" developer is answering some of the request from the people near 446A.
Like it or not, TV has become a medium sized town and the people in that town ALL need their needs met. IMHO maybe when we post here we should consider that there are many need other than our own.
Have a Happy New Year dear Villagers.
Here is a URL you might enjoy Brownwood Paddock Square
I agree with everything said except the part about the publix on 441 having a better selection than colony. they have exactly the same lines of products and selection. As far as being stocked, depends what time of day you shop. If you see something empty just ask a stock clerk and if they have it they get it for you.

2 problems, one is the status of the parcel is 'withdrawn'
and 2, that is not the anterim dells parcel.

Antrim Dells is on the east side of Brownwood. It is also called Unit 966. If you go down Buena Vista past 44a, the next circle turn left that is East Torch Drive. Was panned as shopping mall-plaza deal. It is now all housing like Edgewater Bungalos by the Water Front Inn. Like 175 houses.
