The signs are now up and it's the Village of Pine Crest or maybe Pine Ridge

It was probably named after Pine Ridge Dairy Rd., which traversed the property as I recall. I think it sounds better than "Village of Fruitland Park."

I think the title Village of Fruitland Park referred to the entire development. Within it are Villages of different names. I can't think of a single Village here that has 2000 homes.

FRUIT FLIES.

Default Villages of Fruitland Park

I think it's going to be a great fit for both the Villagers & The Town of Fruitland Park, I would like to see the Pine Ridge Dairy stay a big part of the this area of The Villages, The Farm was a Big part of Fruitland Park for many years.
This is a town that is going through a rebuilding stage and with The Villages At the stage of building Homes all will come together as One.
I am a resident of this area for 30 years and what a great Town it was to grow up in. !! And with You Villagers joining this area I feel it's going to be a Fantastic fit For all, But I think that The Pine Ridge Dairy name should be Pridefully Displayed throughout the Farm area just not over Done.
We @ Kling Painting Sincerely Welcome everyone to Our Town

Thanks to the Klings for all the good things you have done in The Villages. I agree, it would be nice see a reflection of past use of the property.

Looks like the Village of Santo Domingo presently has the largest number of homes at 1,580.
