Don just posted in his thread about video 147 showing a better map with the section the Villages has pulled permits for clearing. But his sources aren’t talking about what is going in. It’s very cryptic and secretive. So probably one of those popup Halloween stores. :D

Mister car wash, WaWa gas, and a Vape shop.

There are 2 Asian grocery stores in Brandon that may be closer or easier to get to.

I don't think we have the numbers to support that type of store here but it's nice that Walmart carries a lot of the sauces required like Hoisin and Oyster sauce, unfortunately not Shaoxing cooking wine.

My bet would be Grocery, should be high volume, then again one can never go wrong with a
Mattress place, nail salon, and another 7-11:oops:barf

I agree...yet another Publix...

Not sad at all. Lots of these things, and more, are just a short drive away from every home in The Villages. Even the ones at the farthest corners.

470 speculations:

Costco? Hobby Lobby? 7/11, Citizens First and a car wash?

Will there be a tunnel under 470 from Megisson?

In any case the desert wasteland that is Lake Denham and Dabney may be getting some new life. :D

Of course this is all speculation at this point but if I can be offered a wish list, here is mine:
1. A bridge or tunnel for golf cart access
2. grocery store, publix or winn dixie
3. Gas station.
Everything else would be gravy.

It will surely be a Publix, but I hope for a different grocery store.

Four banks and a Walgreens.

MorTech 08-08-2024 05:45 AM

A Hooters and a Cardiatric center.

Isn't there a publix and a Winn Dixie right up the road on 470 in Okahumpka? Can't imagine they'd build another one so close. But then again, being wrong is like a second job for me, so I dunno.

I agree, both are only about 2 miles away, maybe 3.

Does the area need another independent/assisted living facility?

We are all getting older

I'd like to see a grocery, breakfast restaurant, gas, Applebee's hooters type restaurant, haircut place, fast food but not your usual crap, pizza place...

I'd much rather an independently owned restaurant than a chain.
