#1. I think the square area is a bit small(for that many homes down there).
#2 The stage roof seems a bit high(shelter from rain?).
#3. The parking(which will be shared by restaurant patrons, Sawgrass patrons, and the Rec Center. Oh, and you have to park, go thru the little mall to get to the golf shop, then go back out and across the road to golf?

On the Trailwinds area. Have you heard anymore about the Ocala hospital? Seems like it died on the vine?



Thanks.
#1 - it's about the same size as the Brownwood area, just no seating.
#2 - agree
#3 - yes shared parking, 420+ car spaces, double or more with just golf carts, there's an outside entrance to the golf shop so you don't need to go through the market area.
#4 - nothing yet, hospitals take a long time to design and build, because of the support systems involved they are some of the most complex buildings to build and take a long time to design (I worked several before retiring from the construction industry).
