The Parks Province
New Opportunities, Meaningful Connections
Park it Here
As our story unfolds, our core initiatives continue to shape our growth. Our second phase of development, named the Parks Province, celebrates our natural landscape, from untouched preserve wetlands, to parklands that blur the lines between the natural and created landscape, and the Babcock Trail streetscape that links residents to neighborhood conveniences and our one-of-a-kind 3.5 mile linear park amenity. With more homes to choose from, more neighborhoods to love, and more options to play, work, explore, shop, and dine, the Parks Province ushers in a new era of happier, healthier living at Babcock Ranch.
Bluebird Park
At the northern trail head of Curry Creek Park you’ll find Bluebird Park, a neighborhood hangout designed for people (and birds, and butterflies). Planned amenities include an active adult-oriented fitness zone, a play area for little ones, a native pollinator garden, an adventurous play zone for big kids, and a shaded picnic pavilion. There’s so much to do…or not do. Slow down and recharge in peaceful pockets of the park. Relax in the shade grove or head to the main lawn for an impromptu yoga session in the park. However you love to spend time outside, you can do it at Bluebird Park.
Cypress Park North
Surrounded by tree canopy and native landscaping, an expansive 2-acre fishing pond shines at the center of Cypress Park North. This isn’t your old-fashioned fishing hole. Stocked with bass and smaller fish, the pond is equipped with a fishing pier, plenty of waterfront seating, and multiple water access points for non-motorized boats, kayaks, and more. For land lovers there’s also picturesque picnic areas, a waterfront event lawn, and a circular trail that surrounds the lake. Cypress Park North offers all the fun of a lakeside vacation without ever leaving the neighborhood.
Cypress Park South
For the outdoorsy-est of them all, Cypress Park South offers several amenities inspired by Florida’s wild beauty. Kids of all ages can romp through a Discovery Treehouse, “swamp” play areas, and an exciting canal-inspired water zone with fountains, weirs, and splash tables. Cypress Park South is also a great spot for events with it’s grand lawn and a picnic lawn, there’s even an outdoor fitness station.
Bark Park
Sit, stay, run, fetch, tug, and play, there’s plenty of room for it all at Bark Park. With large and small dog runs, a tree-lined trail for leisurely walks, a dog mound, ample seating for humans, and plenty of native landscaping for lots of good smells.
Palmetto Park
Palmetto Park’s proposed amenities are designed to encourage play and exploration, including a basketball court, flex lawn large enough for pickup games, a lake, trails, an insect-themed playground, a ninja warrior park, and several discovery gardens where visitors can learn more about our natural surroundings.
Have You Ever Seen A Park Within a Park?
Introducing Curry Creek Park: your new Saturday morning cycling spot, the best place to throw a birthday party, and where four-legged friends (big and small) have their own place to run free. Spanning a combined 50 acres, this massive linear park is made up of five distinct parks interconnected by our trail system. Planned amenities include themed play spaces, picnic lawns, fitness areas, native plant trails, a discovery garden, fishing pond with a looping trail, flexible lawns for informal sports and recreation, and larger event lawns for community-wide events and festivals that will connect residents of all ages and welcome regional visitors. Designed with sustainability in mind, Curry Creek Park reflects our sensitivity to local ecologies — from native plant communities and wildlife to existing and proposed hydrologic networks — and emphasizes an appreciation for the surrounding landscape. Explore each of the five parks and get excited for this incredible amenity.
Green Marks the Spot
Imagine everything you love about Founder’s Square and Crescent B Commons – places to work and play, waterside and casual dining, green space to gather and enjoy year-round events – all in one amazing spot. A microcosm of Babcock Ranch, the new Village Green will offer next-generation conveniences designed to live in harmony with the natural world. At the heart of it all is a massive seven acres of green space, surrounded by a thoughtful mix of shops, dining, offices, apartments, a proposed biergarten, and more. This destination will sit on the banks of a massive 25-acre lake, offering countless activities, incredible views, and so many ways to experience nature. The Village Green will be an entirely new kind of town center fit for the hometown of tomorrow.
A Rich Tapestry of Neighborhoods
With eight new neighborhoods from seven award-winning builders, Parks Provinces will have something for everyone. From townhomes, villas, and condos, to single-family estates and active adult neighborhoods, we’re offering even more options to help you find your perfect fit.
Did we mention Phase Two plans just might include a potential new elementary school, regional sports field, and even a second golf course? These are just a few of the proposed additions to the Parks Province.
