Community of Tomorrow
Today
From farmland to elegant all-encompassing
community, Tradition hailed as model development
There’s a bit of Pleasantville, the mythical movie
town where everything is beautifully perfect,
at Tradition. But unlike the film, where everything
is in black and white, Tradition is most
definitely in vibrant Technicolor. Meticulous landscaping
is enhanced by a West Indies-inspired color scheme
for shops and town houses in Tradition Square, which
is reflected in the beautiful fountained lake across from
Town Hall.
The people smile a little longer and choose to be
more helpful in Tradition. Everything is not perfect,
of course, but residents and shopkeepers seem to try
a little harder. That may be why so many people from
within the city of Port St. Lucie travel there to shop,
play along the shore and bring their friends and families
to attend events.
MANY AMENITIES
“Tradition was really designed as a downtown-of-tomorrow
type of thought process that would incorporate
many of the amenities to be close at hand,” says Port
St. Lucie City Manager Jeff Bremer. “The town provides
many services and opportunities for the residences so
that they do not have to travel.”
Bremer adds that Tradition may not be Port St. Lucie’s
only center since it incorporates 120 square miles
and has other areas of development, but its location
close to Interstate 95 and its space for growth give it >>
