It is the large Coleman Federal Correctional complex.
Fenny is adjacent to a gated community called Coleman Federal Correctional Complex (Prison).

The complex has 1,600 acres of space. As of 2010 the complex, the largest correctional facility operated by the BOP, altogether had 7,120 prisoners, and 1,300 employees, making it one of the largest employers in the county. Most prisoners are sentenced for drug-related crimes. Prisoners are male with the exception of those in the female work camp. The prisoners on average have sentences of 10 years.

The complex consists of four facilities:

Federal Correctional Institution, Coleman Low (FCI Coleman Low): a low-security facility.
Federal Correctional Institution, Coleman Medium (FCI Coleman Medium): a medium-security facility with an adjacent satellite prison camp for minimum-security inmates.
United States Penitentiary I, Coleman (USP Coleman I): a high-security facility.
United States Penitentiary II, Coleman (USP Coleman II): a high-security facility.

Don't be scared. Been here 15 years and Coleman hasn't lost any residents over that time.
Probably more danger in going thru the roundabouts,
where some don't have a clue.

It would make for an interesting Stephen King story to have an apocalyptic event happen whereby all of the guards leave the prison unattended causing a mass escape of all prisoners to prey on the elderly residents of the nearby Villages.

All of the pictures were taken using an old Canon T2i with the standard EFS 18-55mm lens. I maintain 1,000 above populated areas and maybe a little less above parts of Fenney with no people or structures below me. If I drop this old camera, no big loss. :icon_wink:

I would enjoy seeing your drone pictures of Fenney taken from a lower altitude. I flew $1,000 RC drones back in Ohio as a Horizon Hobby dealer and enjoyed taking pictures from them.

If I'm correct.....you took this almost directly over Pinellas Plaza.
Top right and out of the pic would be Eisenhower Rec Center. The big lake in the center is Lake Deaton.
So its a picture of....Collier, Pinellas, and lots of other Villages.
Great shots, especially the more recent ones.
What will the Fenney Island be ? Looks like the making of a pitch and putt.

The photo's are fantastic. I'm having a bit of difficulty orienting myself on some of them though. If possible, could you put a simple direction indicator on each of them or anything that would give a clue of N, S, E, or W. If not I certainly understand but they are so interesting I wish I could orient myself on some of them. Especially the one with the security facilities. Can you tell us where that is, (generally speaking).
Thanks again for all you do.

Great pics! What camera do you use?

All of the pictures were taken using an old Canon T2i with the standard EFS 18-55mm lens that if dropped is no great loss. And Yes, I am driving to Oshkosh with four as the Cub only holds two.

Someday, I may use my GoPro to record flights around TV to then place on YouTube such as this flight around Chicago going to Oshkosh 2012.

My aircraft is hangered at the Inverness airport located some 24 miles to the west of TV. As my Cub is non-electric, must hand prop to start the engine and use a portable radio. While Leesburg is closer, tower controllers usually have a hard time hearing my transmission and I am so slow in the pattern. Thus, I try to stay away from airports that are tower controlled.

What I was curious about was if TV had a little airport for small aircraft. Thanks for answering.

I save all these aerial views to a file on my computer and on OneDrive. It’s a different and a great perspective in viewing The Villages.
This, of course, is my favorite. What do they say, “the best Village is where you live?” Although it does get a bit chilly being so far north.:cold:

Thank you, it's hard to believe that so much can be accomplished down here in such a short time. We sold our home up north and left here on 2/20 to empty out the house and load up a truck. There were around 15 homes in various stages of completion in DeSoto when we left and look at it now 5 weeks later, amazing. Thanks again for sharing these with all of us.
