Don't think it will be quick. Demographics are the key and 28,000 people do not mean much when it comes to commercial development. It's actually sort of interesting " The Villages " acquired the property south of Rte. 44, but not a lot of the frontage. I think " The Villages has it's hands full still trying to develop the commercial property at Brownwood, Grand Traverse, Rowan, etc. If you look around there are still a lot of " out lot " properties all around " The Villages " and no takers. Don't really think they are interested in negotiating with the " big " players. Note that the new Lowes is going in at the Tailwind's development on 466A. Just my opinion.
