There is a construction entrance on the south side of route 466 but will there be another access road even a golf cart path in and out of this new village??????????

It appears the site is bounded on three sides by the Palmer golf course. There may be some access through the course but that remains to be seen. It is bounded on the remaining side by 466 so it is accessible there by car and cart.

I believe it is Bridgeport at Laurel Valley. I may be wrong.

Certainly there won't be any other roads -- look at the district map/master plan. I can't imagine they would interfere with the golf course operations by cutting through with a new multi-modal path when the existing one is right there along 466. It goes directly to Laurel Manor Rec center (about 1 mile) and gives easy access to Lake Sumter Landing (about 3 miles). It's one of the prettiest routes in TV.

I'm glad to learn what's going on there.

A touch of history: the area once was home to some our dear departed buffalo!

It also was the marshalling area for the original Longest Golf Cart Parade challenge on 09/04/2005. Virtually all 3,200 golf carts gathered there before the parade began. What a sight!

Also was the site of a big white tent that was used for the dinner after the Phillips golf tournament.

There was mention of yet another new Bridgeport. Anyone know where that is?

Harmeswood is definitely not Bridgeport, it's part of the Village of Belle Aire.

On the dropdown list of villages on TV's pre-owned website, Creekside Landings, Lake Sumter and Old Mill Landing were briefly listed as "Bridgeport at . . ." -- but then these went away. So we still don't know if these areas (all adjacent to Lake Sumter Landing, two existing and one being built) will be renamed as Bridgeports.

Chacam. I sincerely apologized to you about that. Twice. And in my defense at that time, there were only three.

But as I have said before, you are right and I am wrong. I am sorry.

There are now five. Where is the fifth one? Does anyone know?
