Not Costco.. Target announcement for tradewinds. Any other store just wishful thinking

Surprised developers would put any big retail in at 466A instead of waiting to provide a Target or Walmart down by Middleton; the wave of the future, where 8200 households consisting of single-family homes, duplexs and apartments (as approved) are going in for under the 55's. (I get the need for workers to care for the oldsters, but it's a sugar coating on what is going to come.) The "bubble" will eventually float away.

Target is being built at Trailwinds, not COSTCO. But a COSTCO will be coming to Clermont, which is about a 50 minute drive away. They are currently behind schedule.

It is not a Costco. The Costco is being built in Clermont.

So wait, Home Depot near Powell and 466A, Winn Dixie at 466A and Micro Racetrack, and now Target in the middle on 466A. Driving near there will be unbelievable.

You can say that again. Sometimes it seems unbelievable now.

Can't be worse than up north, by Spanish Springs, where most of the crime happens.

Your key comment here is ,”wave of the future”. I’ve lived in the Villages 14 years. It’s been my observation that retailers build in locations where there are established homes. They want their shoppers there now.
I’m sure Middleton will eventually get stores for their residents. But 8200 of you might be driving for a while.

Sounds good. Need to get more down by the new Middleton area. Working parents are not going to want to run to this or the Spanish Springs area when little Johnny comes home and says "Teacher wants a poster presentation with colors and sparkles on Thanksgiving. Tomorrow".
