In the meantime, the Publix grocery on 466A near the Lowes is going full bore, moving ahead despite starting later, with a Winn Dixie in a baseball hit distance from it.

I am not seeing The Villages commitment to the infrastructure in this area. I will warn away potential buyers here for this reason.
Why would TheVillages be committed to an area that is not within Villages boundaries? The Villages doesn’t own The Trailwinds area.
