If you are familiar with the Naples or Collier Country area you may have heard the terms Big Cypress.
Recently, Collier Enterprises announced plans to build a new town in eastern Collier County. The new town is to be called Big Cypress. The current plans call for about 25,000 homes. Total acreage will be about 22,000 or 34 square miles. 14,000 acres will be set aside for preserve areas.
Plans call for access to the area via Immokalee Road, Golden Gate Boulevard, Randall Boulevard. Proposed plans also include an exit from I-75 about two east of the present Everglades Boulevard overpass.
Immokalee and Ave Maria will be its neighboring communities.
If approved, construction is expected to start in 2010 and build-out could take 25 to 30 years.
