Doubt if the population would support a full service car wash. There are two on 441 which provide good washes. 44 business's will grow in due time.....then we will complain about all the traffic

[golfing eagles]

Costco's or BJ's
P.F. Changs
a GOOD pizzeria
a miniature golf course for the grandkids
bowling alley
a night club similar to the original Katie Belle's
a 10 mile long well paved and maintained bicycle only path for the cyclists so they stay out of harm's way
another driving range so we don't have to wait around 1/2 hour at Sarasota to get a place to hit from

There is a bowling alley about 10 min from Brownwood. Go down 44 towards Leesburg. Stay straight where 44 takes a hard right into Leesburg and it will be on your right.

Dairy Queen, Container Store and Nordstrom Rack.

[Boomer]

Golf Courses. Regional and Neighborhood Rec Centers. Outdoor Pools. CC Restaurants. The Squares.......

These are the things you can already see, no matter where you buy in TV. I have always thought that was a major advantage to buying here. The amenities are in place. Not distant promises.

But as TV sprawls south, location can become more of a consideration when it comes to outside commercial development. It might take a while.

To make TV south end the perfect retirement community, I go along with Dairy Queen, Treasure Island Beach and the John's Pass Village and Boardwalk, Trasher's French Fries from Ocean City Maryland, Boog Powell's BBQ, Crab Cakes from Baltimore, a Jersey Mike's Sub Shop, a Championship Golf Course with green fees of $30 all year-round, a 1,500 seat covered amphitheater with Tom Petty playing opening night with ticket prices of $25 and Van Halen, ZZ Top, Journey and similar type acts booked in the future, a first class minor league baseball stadium with the Chicago Cubs or Baltimore Orioles spring training home and a Florida State League Minor League Team the remainder of the year. I could go on, but you all get the idea.

Trashers waiting line is like this all day and night from Memorial Day to Labor Day. They have no ketchup, vinegar only.

A good Boston Market (the one in Ocala is bad at best).

A nice shoe store. A repair shop or two -- alterations, shoe repair, small appliances, computers.

Not the same ole, same ole.

[CFrance]

There is a car wash of sorts at the gas station at the (southwest?) corner of 44 and 301. It's not hands-on, so no people drying your car off. It's in the shopping strip that used to hold the old Winn Dixie.

Spoke with the manager at the Boston Market in Ocala on Wednesday. He said the corporation is looking for a site in TV. He thought it was a done deal.
BTW they have remodeled the interior and our food was good as usual.

[NotGolfer]

There are car-washes in Wildwood--I think 2. There used to be a Dairy Queen on 466 some years ago and it closed, so don't think it would be sustainable now if not then. I think this was about 7 yrs ago it was here.

Saw some activity by the old Winn Dixie in Wildwood the other day. That center has died since Dixie left & then the Bike shop

[charmed59]

An athletic shoe store that sells court shoes. For all the pickle ball I'm surprised how hard it is to find tennis shoes.

Taco Bell, or even Mc Donald's. I'm surprised there are no fast food places other than Subway along 44.

A Trader Joe's would be awesome. I wonder why the company doesn't think the Villages would work for them.

PATIENCE is a virtue!

A few weeks ago after a trip down to the Brownwood area I asked a Village sales person about the lack of businesses and large trees in the area. His response was " just wait 20 years. It will look just as grown up as the other areas". I kinda grinned and asked him how many current residents would actually be here in 20 yrs to enjoy it.

A convenient, full-service hardware store somewhere south of 466A that is golf cart accessible. A large ACE would be perfect.
And a golf cart accessible automobile parts store would also be a nice thing.

Tj max, Home Depot, pollo tropical, costco

[mikemalloy]

The Brownwood area needs a good pizzeria. To make it better they would serve bagels in the mornings.
On 44 we could use a restaurant or two like Appelbees and a Cracker Barrel would do nicely for both breakfast and lunch.
My wife would like a cart accessible Target.
I've written to Costco suggesting that the pilot a new kind of store called Costco Silver that would be aimed at retirement community residents but have gotten no response.

[Rsenholzi]

There is a bowling alley there on Main Street just past where 44 turns towards Leesburg. I would love to see a gas station by Rohan and some of the Dept. stores come in near there also. A fresh market, or a Trader Joe's would be good also. Maybe a dollar tree for quick inexpensive stuff not family dollar or dollar general.

[Rsenholzi]

Home goods, tjmaxx , Tuesday morning, and a good pizza place like Corellis in Clermont ( not the garbage passed off as NY Pizza here), and a good bagel place - bring in someone from NY to do the pizza and bagel place

At least for a start, I would like to see someplace for Breakfast, something for Lunch or light lunch & a nice sit down place for Dinner. As far as recreation for now, that'll come! Personally I like Hooters for sandwiches, they've got the best Steak N Cheese sandwich anywhere. I still think inside TV isn't the cheapest place to eat either. I know a lot of people think I'm crazy but it really does depend on what part of the country you come from. East coast is more expensive & the west. I'm from the Midwest & I can tell you our fast food sandwich places, our steak houses & our pubs (bars) are cheaper! :icon_hungry:

You're right again. It would be so much easier to walk rather than use the golf cart. Or better yet, clutter the road on your bicycle. BTW--- I recently needed a fuse, and simple as that seems, had to wait for a car before obtaining it.

[EnglishJW]

My wife secretly wishes for a Michaels (or Joanns or AC Moore). We'd love a Costco and Trader Joe's. A place like Rae Rae's would be nice but a Cracker Barrel would be fine too. I just think many of these chains are more likely to want to be closer to the intersection of 75 and 44. How about another Bonefish or Carrabbas? It is always nice to dream. For now, we are grateful for the places we do have in Brownwood and for the services along 44.

We are within a couple miles of both TJ's and Costco's and a member of Costco here in NC. The only thing I ever use my Costco membership for is gasoline. I just can't figure out why retirees with 2 in the household need to buy cases of anything at one time?

TJ's, on the other hand, is awesome and that would be a great addition.

If you buy a case as you say, you don't need to go shopping as often, plus things like tires are cheaper. Would not use the gasoline as it is not premium, only 91 octane.

Cheaper to buy electronic equipment and software. Went to Sams today and now have plenty of charcoal to cook the ribs I wanted but they did not have.

[laryb]

I talked to a manager at Costco when I joined in the Altamonte store (to take advantage of their car buying program), and told him that a large group of people want a Costco in or near the Villages. While he said it could happen one day, it won't be in the near future, as corporate doesn't think there's enough businesses to support one now. I told him there are plenty businesses in TV, Ocala, Inverness, and Leesburg, and while he personally agreed, he doesn't see it happening for quite a while. I seem to remember a campaign on TOTV a while back to email Costco to request a store, and I think nothing ever came of that

Most all Corporations have a Business Developement organization with a market research department. If it makes financial sense to go anywhere they usually go......I'm sure all those that have been requested have done the studies and have determined that now is not the time to come here. While there are those that can't stand the growth of The Villages, that growth is exactly what is needed to attract commercial stores. As in most things, they follow the money.

It is the same all over Florida in January, February and March.

Two years ago, Florida became the second most populous State, right behind California.

There wasn't a SINGLE home in The Villages south of 466A SIX years ago.

Many large retail chains are CLOSING brick and mortar stores because of burgeoning internet sales.

Companies depend on information from demographers to choose areas to build new business. Even the demographers are not keeping up with the VERY unusual rapid growth found here. AND the unusual excellent good credit found here.

The Morse huge and powerful building machine will build to suit as soon as the businesses decide to come here.

How many times have friends asked, "Now WHERE is The Villages?"

First of all you need a great car wash near Brownwood. Most important food addition to make someone a Zillionaire would be a White Castle. If you don't know what it is trust me you'll love it.

Cycles. Houses get built, people move in. Services follow. We definitely need more services along 44. Once corporate planners decide that we are ready to spend money on their stuff, they will start building. But we are in the down cycle of the lag.

Rosati's Pizza or Aurelio's Pizza. Both are great pizza chains started in the Chicago area and contrary to what some think, they make great thin crust pizza in addition to deep dish. They have other locations in Florida now so they could locate one in or near TV. On 44 would be great.

The Costco's I have been to carry 87 and 93 octane and their gasoline is also rated as top tier. My car requires at least 91 and I cannot find 91 anywhere. Most stations carry 87, 89 and 93.
