Community Center and Parade of Homes

 
The last seven to ten days have been big at Gran Paradiso. Last week the Trevi and Oakmont models were completed with furnishings (click links to see some photos). The Princeton is getting closer every day, and the Orchid villa is drywalled allowing for visitors to get a great impression of the finished product. The most momentous event occurred on Monday, though, with the final turnover of the community center building to Lennar.

Ok. It is not like it wasn't inevitable and truly a sure thing, but there were no snags, no hitches, and now absolutely no turning back. It is official. That is always a milestone. It is obvious, however, that there was never any question of this on Lennar's part. Progress on the community center has been underway and ongoing for some time now. The clubhouse itself is estimated for completion at the end of this month. Maybe in time for the annual Parade of Homes, which is scheduled for the February 22nd through March 9th.

According to The Parade of Homes Facebook page, there will be 81 homes participating this year. Specifically which homes and communities are participating will not be released until February 22nd, when the event's publication is released in that day's editions of the Sarasota Herald-Tribune and the Bradenton Herald. I have it on good authority, though, that at least one home in Gran Paradiso will be featured. Being such a fan of residential architecture and interior design myself, I am really anxious for this year's event and plan on checking out as many of the 81 as I can.
