I also think the design of the other two squares is more appealing. Personally, I like the effect of a central entertainment area surrounded by stores.
Like the Dunkin Donuts there?

Not everyone is in agreement with honoring the cattle industry in a Florida retirement setting.
It also lacks the energy felt in the other town squares. I don’t think a hotel and medical facilities will do anything for this brown elephant. IMHO
It might do better as a children’s western theme park. Tear down the stadium seating and add a playground jungle gym. Charge admission so the kids can play cowboys, get deputized and chase bank robbers, build a small water park for summer time fun. The grandkids won’t want to leave.
Full disclosure, we are full time residents south of 466A and frequent LSL & Spanish Springs even though Brownwood is in our “backyard”.

The Brownwood Dunkin Donuts could use a little competition. Another coffee oriented shop would be appreciated.
