I am not familiar with a verified report of a mall (other than a strip mall) being built on 44. There were plans of a mall several years ago, but they appear to have been dropped - at least from The Villages commercial web site.

However, yes, I am concerned about truck traffic on Morse as a result of the new turnpike interchange. Other pooh-pooh it because of the traffic circles, but I still think that a few traffic circles provide a lot less of an impediment to a truck than the red lights that they now encounter coming up 27/441 from the turnpike.
