Indian Springs

The Mount Dora City Commission in Florida has approved plans by Crosland LLC to build a 162-acre traditional neighborhood called Indian Springs. The development, on the site of an old tree farm and nursery in a town of about 12,000, north of Orlando, will contain 402 dwellings, including apartments, townhouses, and detached houses. The community, which includes drought-resistant trees and other water saving measures, is working to be a pilot for Florida’s Water Star program, which recognizes advances in water conservation.
