Default LSL market square

Went to LSL tonite. I couldn't believe how crowded it was. Even the cart and vehicle traffic was outta sight. I'm thinking apartment dwellers. When the snowbirds get here in full force, and more apartments are built......well, you know the rest.

During snow bird season when there is a popular group playing do not think apartment dwellers will be happy with traffic.

LSL is always busy. More shops, restaurants, etc. there than the other two squares is one reason. I prefer Spanish Springs; a lot more laid back AND they have Kilwin's.

Isn’t that what we want, vibrant town squares?
Or there are posts that LSL is a ghost town, the developer will close it.

Apartments at LSL??? Hmmm...I must have missed them. Either that or failing eyesight

PS: Rocky and the Rollers were playing there last night, and the weather was perfect.

Yeah, that and the effects of Global Warming and the depletion of the Ozone Layer.

It is not like the good old days:

Apartment dwellers.....hardly.

Without even thinking about apartments.....keep in mind the slow season population of today is larger than the busy season of 5 plus years ago.

The 300 homes per month being sold and closed per month add to the population way....WAY.... More than the apartment factor.

Popular group, great weather and snowbirds back to the villages will always yield crowds.

Rocky and the Rollers usually pack the place.... not surprising it was crowded.

Is LSL that place just this side of Sumter Swamp?

I don't know how I did it...but I think I am on the naughty list for the Village's Real Estate salespeople!

It's not very crowded and almost sparse when the jazz ensemble is there.
