I looked at the video.

At 6:41, it shows the tennis and PICKLEBALL COURTS very near the villas built just on the other side of the wall.

Everyone knows that no human wants to live near those dreaded courts.

What were the designers thinking?

They were probably the same bunch who put the courts very near the houses at Water Lily.

You do know they are near houses almost everywhere in TV?

You do know that as great as Don's updates are, he doesn't have access into the buildings or information on the plans other that what is available in the public domain. The only folks that have the facts is the Developer. I think the developers videos and Don's videos compliment each other......and I think The Villages is supposed to be a Happy Smiley Clappy place.

Not in Osceola Hills where we live. Not at Truman or Big Cypress or Aviary either.

True but why buy houses near them when you can have peace and quiet?

There are houses backing up to the Big Cypress Pickle Ball Courts, they just don’t happen to be in the Villages.

It doesn’t surprise me they aren’t in Osceola Hills. The Bridgeport rec center is one of the few that has no pickle ball courts.

The Burnsed Rec Center is in Osceola Hills and the pickleball courts are a long ways from the houses.

Maybe the person who designed our rec center has retired and the new designer doesn't understand how irritating that pickle noise can be.

Agreed JoMar. A very informative update that put a zoom lens on Don’s awesome drone shots.

Those houses will sell, just like all the rest of the houses.

Please, please, please Villages leasing department - please get a healthy chopped salad/grain bowl kind of lunch take-away place in the Sawgrass Market. I do like a good burger, but we desperately need clean food/healthy options added.

So, those are aliens living in those homes near Waterlily? Good to know.
