It was supposed to be across BV (to the east) from Brownwood at the intersection of 44 and BV. However, didn't I read (perhaps just another rumor) that the plans for the additional hospital were scrapped since it was found to be not cost competitive because of redundancies with The Villages hospital?

Deerfly: I heard the same from a reliable source. The developer doesn't really need the exit off I 75 now at this stage of The Villages development. It would have been nice for some from the middle of TV. State Route 44 provides good access to where development is now taking place and 301 goes right to the turnpike. Looks like "time" has saved TV developer a few dollars.

The hospital will be on the west side of the Brownwood site. Site work has already begun.

The west side??? Isn't that where their planning map shows the Anterim Dell mall?

Unless their plans have dramatically changed, the original site for it was to the east of Brownwood:

I believe the Hospital was approved after the date on the map. Seems to me I heard in 2011 the Hospital was approved for E.side of Moorse Blvd s/o Rt 44a. Should be where the land was leveled behind the entrace on 44 & Morse Blvd

The plans have changed.

We in Laurel Valley were recently told by our CDD rep that the hospital planned for Brownwood wouldn't be built. Instead they planned to enlarge the Sharon Morse Hospital.

A larger hospital has benefits that I can't remember....what he said...

Someone fish me out.

So, are you saying that Anterim Dell Mall is canceled or has it been moved to where the hospital was originally planned?

[gvsulakerfan]

They switched sides

maybe they could not get a CON and need to build a new one
