BE IN THE KNOW! What's happening around Naples?
- Collier Regional Hospital on 951 (just south of Rattlesnake Hammock) Well under way and possible opening in early Spring.
New Walmart Super Center just south of US41 on 951 already has the walls up so it won't be long before the roof is on! Any bets that they will be open before Christmas?
- Big Cypress Market. 4 miles east of 951 on US41 (north side of road) scheduled to open in September of 2007. Market will have 87,000 sq ft under air, 250 booths, food vendors, entertainment, open Fri/Sat/Sun from 8am-4pm. They will also have an Expo center featuring local events like the Naples Flower & Garden Show, Car Shows and a little birdie told me they could host some events for the mega Naples Wine Charity event. With parking for 5,000 and an air conditioned facility of this size, this is great news for Naples! Exciting NEWS! Premiere Plus Realty Company will have a Branch Office at The Big Cypress Market, managed and operated by The Lanners Group!
- Just announced! A new Collier Library is to be constructed on Lely Cultural Blvd off 951 (by Edison College) and ready some time in 2008.
- Firano at Naples is southwest Florida's newest exclusive community of single-family homes featuring the award-winning designs of Toll Brothers. Located within a few minutes of downtown Naples and its pristine white sand beaches, Firano at Naples offers two to four bedroom home designs ranging in size from 2,058 to 3,024 square feet of living space. The community offers residents a Grand Clubhouse, resort-style swimming pool, and state-of-the-art fitness center. Prices from $530,000 and up. Located on Davis Blvd just east of Santa Barbara (where the outdoor theater used to be).
- New Restaurants' are opening or planned to open all around Naples. A great sign that this area is still booming even in a national slow down in real estate. The 951 corridor is a hot bed for new comers (it's about time!) with Carabba's already open and doing extremely well and a Pinchers Crab Shack and Outback Steak House in the works. There are also several new eateries located in the newly renovated Waterside Shops up on US41 North
