Really, 301 isn't small and zoom, there goes I-75 and the turnpike.
thoughts? commercial ideas? preservation notions?
I wish I knew what folks there think, hafta find out.
Before I came to The Villages, I lived in a small agricultural town in central FL. I actually lived on property fronting four lane hwy 301. And 301 went through the center of town. The county courthouse in the center of town was totally restored and looked nice. Over a period of time, many of the stores were made to look nice. Many were either turned into antique shops or restaurants.

You want to know what folks there think? They think, duh, this is a boring town.
