Last October(2016) an announcement was made about a new residential development along 466 just across from Spring Arbor. A sign appeared but no further progress can be seen. Does anyone know the status of this development? Just curious.

I think it is where some Morse family live in some new homes.

That area is now a pasture land.
Gracie I think you are confused with the location. Do a Google search on Hammock Oaks.

Bogie, my friend who I have never met and my friend with whom I rarely disagree.
If I go out my in gate, RIGHT across the street there is a new street sign on the road that leads to Mark's house that says "Hammock Oaks".
That street leads past where some horsie's eat grass and wear pretty coats in the winter, past a newly planted huge stand of pines and back to a barn red biggum house with a metal roof that has Mark Morse's style written all over it.

I thought those were old houses?? Lots of green fields with horses running around. You can see a lot of the area while looking east from the Polo Fields.

The barn red house sitting back from 466 across from Bridgeport at Laurel Valley is new in the past eighteen months.
There is another one being completed further back too, also with a metal roof. You can only catch a glimpse of it as you head west of Morse on 466 .

This is the link tomHammock Oaks which is in Lady Lake. Not the one where the Morse family live.

Well it appears that link cannot be opened on this site but you can Google Hammock Oaks, Lady Lake. This was to be 162 acre development of homes and senior living.

I will check next time I am heading past Bridgeport at Laurel Valley on CR466. I often travel that road on the way back-and-forth to Lady Lake Public Library.

Good question.
And for those who are geographically challenged, the area in question is just east of (and abuts) CR100/NE 90th ST., with 466 the north boundary.
The key is "just across from Spring Arbor."

I see where the OP means now.

I drove past there today.
You may want to take another look at the street sign.
It says... 'Oak Hammock.'

And what, pray tell, is Mark Morse's "style?"

I don't know for sure if the home we watched being built as we went in and out our gates belongs to Mark Morse, but I remember Muncle telling us years ago on this forum that he attended one of the earlier "State of the Villages" yearly presentations held at the Savannah and described Mark Morse in an open collared shirt and jeans, and if I remember said he was a likeable and not pretentious person. That stuck with me.
When Henry and I attended the "State of the Villages" for the first time this year, he joked that he was wearing the same suit he had on last year for the event, that his sisters made him buy it and he hadn't had it on since last year.
The home I am guessing might be his is barn red with a metal roof and white touches. It looks from a distance to be wood sided and has the feel of a large ranch or farm house. The Morses like horses and privacy so another reason why I think it might be his are the hundreds of pine seedlings planted in an area between the home and the road.
I don't know if the home belongs to Mark Morse but he and his sisters were very warm and very articulate and you could sense the affection that connects them at the nicely presented "State of the Villages". Nieces and nephews, children and parents are continuing the business that employs thousands in this area and has changed Sumter County from one of the poorest counties in Florida to one of the lowest unemployment rates.
NO, I don't know any of them and this is the closest to any of them I have ever been; (Henry was first in line to get the first free tickets, thus our front row seats)

I sure miss Muncle and some of our other Eternal Members.
