I was very surprised by Sawgrass and it seemed to be just a concrete sidewalk that joined a few restaurants.
If you're looking for the real town square type entertainment Sawgrass seems like just part of the parking lot.
I'm a "younger one" at 60, I'm looking to buy north after renting here for 8 months. WAY north into areas close to 42.
To each their own.

Sawgrass reminds me (vaguely) of a miniature Faneuil Hall in Boston. A big foundation yard in the middle, surrounded by commercial venues. The little indoor mall with its own central eating area, but the pizza shop has a walk-up window from outside - is very much like the old Boston Chipyard chocolate chip cookie booth that was in Faneuil Hall's central food hall. The entertainment outside is reminiscent of the buskers who had to audition and pay for the permit to entertain in the outside yard. The covering overhead wasn't like Boston at all but it was a great touch for a warmer climate, where people might like being outside in the late afternoon and evenings for most of the year.
I wish Sawgrass had a little more variety and lower prices, but rents have to be paid, the Morse Family wants their millions.
