Went to the Market today. Very nice and more than the usual vendors. Let's support these vendors on Sat. Growers Market. Nice to see the all of the people out and about. Will be even nicer as the non village owned stores open. All in All; Nice place.

A quick trip to check things out and do farmers market just completed and I echo what has been said. Very nice and as I mosied around I tried to envision things a year down the road. This will be qute the destination I believe but just as anything else, it will take a little time. Smart tio open it at this stage I think and I sm looking forward to watching it grow since it is the closest center to us. I like all things western, and even though this is Florida legacy driven a wonderful job was done. If you came by cart and missed the entreance off of SR 44 you missed the best part. The rider and cattle are a site to behold. I anticipate that the Saturday market will getr the afoementioned support.

My husband & I checked out the new town square and farmer's market via golf ****. Another great town square and so happy that we have a farmer's market, I'm thinking it will be a huge success. The sales office and theatre were exceptionally well done.

Not because of people but because there seemed to be alot of little buildings in a small area. Just my impression. Looking forward to seeing it in its entirety. I have to think it will be at least as much of a destination than LS.
Patience grasshopper.

37 minutes by golf cart from the Dunkin Donuts in Spanish Springs Square. Not bad. Agree with all the good things that have been said !

Hi Shciasamax,
You are right, though let's put it in perspective. It took seven years to build SS Town Square. LSL Market Square was opened just two years after construction began. It took but a single year to open BW.

The progress was and is amazing. It'll take time before the third square is completed; but having it already open for entertainment is quite a feat! It'll be fun to watch it grow and to continually look forward to what's next.

Unhappy Stadium Seating

No back support? Won't your back give out in 10 minutes? Is this what you sit in to listen to the music?

Stadium seating and chairs with backs are both available.

Even if you come by cart the statues are within walking distance, and I agree...they are awesome.

The phrase is from Kung Fu Tv show in the 80s
Many think it was from The Karate Kid in 84. Not so.
