Leesburg is not off the table. There will be two cancer centers, supposedly equal in services. Here's a link to the story in the Leesburg Daily Commercial http://www.dailycommercial.com/local...073010Moffitt-.
There were also online articles in the Orlando Sun.

I think this is a treatment center and not a research center.

Yes?

Probably "yes", Russ. The Daily Commercial article does not mention "research".
It does mention "treatment" and "services" frequently. I would hope it is on a more sophisticated basis than what is currently available here.
I believe the Tampa center is closely tied in with the University of South Florida. That is a big plus where research is concerned.
There are some treatments for rare cancers that would be impractical to duplicate here.
