Three Town Centers. One Vibrant Community.
COME EXPLORE THE HEART OF IT ALL.
The town centers at Lakewood Ranch give you easy access to simple luxuries like waterfront dining and spa services. Each has its own personality and charms, but all set the stage for extraordinary moments with friends and neighbors. The energy that fills our streets turns every visit into a celebration.
Waterside Place
Main Street
At the heart of Lakewood Ranch, you’ll find a picturesque town center lined with cafés and boutiques, specialty shops, international restaurants, the Lakewood Ranch Cinemas, and various services and businesses, including the Lakewood Ranch Information Center. The open-air, pedestrian-friendly environment provides a unique place for strolling and shopping, signature community events, and concerts and festivals all year long.
The Green at Lakewood Ranch
The Green is one of our three town centers and is located closest to the northern villages of Lakewood Ranch. The Green is a 37-acre walkable shopping center featuring more than two dozen businesses, including a fitness center, specialty grocery store, retail and dining, gathering spaces for socializing and apartments for town center living.
