OK, I found the map, and this looks just like the area that I see reduced to bare earth, and yes I agree there has been no work at the corner of 462 and 466a.

I think the entire Wholelife Project was some kind of a hoax. I looked up the development names of previous projects when I first read about the new rental development coming on 462 and 466A. I saw pretty pictures but could never find any of their projects actually ever built, not even in Texas. It was mostly about tying up the land.

Bigger minds than mine could figure it all out. Maybe it was to get all the sewer and water lines in place and paid for by Wildwood? Obviously Wholelife isn't going to pay now that they are in bankruptcy. I just can't understand how Wholelife really operated. The other newspaper said Wholelife had one owner.

The citizens of Wildwood may have questions.

The online newspaper has an article about this. The piece that is started is fine no problems. The piece that is not started is the one that's in trouble and filed for bankruptcy protection.
Maybe The Villages will get it's chance yet !

Once again everyone panicking and giving misinformation. These are two separate developments we're dealing with. Everyone take a deep breath.

One thing is for sure, the TV developer isn't filing for bankruptcy.

Photo1902,
You are correct, I made the mistake and confused Trailwinds (the development currently being worked on) and Wholelife (the one declaring bankruptcy).

There were so many potential developments for this location, I had them mixed up. Glad you pointed this out and made me go back and double check.

The other big plot is still being developed by Tailwinds near Sandhill Golf Course. They are already putting in underground fixtures. You won't even be able to move in Brownwood when all these non-Villagers move in.

This is what is currently under construction.

Glad I can get away for a few months from TV. That way when I come back I can see all of the new areas that are being built without having to deal with speculation. Sad however for those who live along the new building site. The dust the noise during building is horrific. We were the third house being built in our area and even with windows closed I had a dirt farm inside our house. Hoping that they make the buildings aesthetically pleasing to those homes surrounding this new building area.

I don't think Wildwood owned that property. They were only involved in approving a development proposal.

No debate yet about when/if these people can use our Golf cart trails?

What happened to the assisted living that was supposed to be going in where now it shows multi family homes? Also did the Villages homeowners realise that big box stores like Lowes would be part of the development. This plan seems quite different to the one I saw before.
When the Villages were in negotiation for land it was for the whole piece including Trailwinds.
The digging that can be seen along the rear of the properties abutting Beaumont property (466A/462) is the laying of utilities

Gee just a maybe thought. Wonder if The Villages will get involved anyways like they are with the new development S/O the Turnpike? As someone else has said they'll never file for Bankruptcy.

Developer's file bankruptcy all the time. Big ones and small ones leave a lot of vendors and investors "holding the empty bag". WholeLife Development was proposing, as part of their project, 400 rental bungalows. That seemed like a bad idea from the word go and some of us thought so on the original thread when the project was first announced.

It appears that Wildwood Commisiioners didn't do their due diligence when approving the WholeLife Development project. Hopefully, they will get better results the next time around. Though it could be a while before they get another chance.

If Wildwood Commisiioners had gone with The Village Developer's proposal, they certainly would have come up with different results.

When due diligence is not done there is usually a trail to who screwed up. Sometimes that trail leads to wrongdoing beyond incompetence.
