There is currently a nineteen-acre site adjacent to Buckhorn that will give homeowners easy access to shopping and eateries. With Class A businesses and restaurants in mind, the spaces will compliment the neat, tidy, and well-kept appearance of the Buckhorn area. These new projects are expected to be completed in the third or fourth quarter of 2007. The future restaurants and stores will cater to the shopping and dining needs of the homeowners of the area, as well as provide employment opportunities for area homeowners. In addition to this future plaza, there are several upscale and casual dining options close by. Also available are grocery stores, pharmacies, convenience stores, gas stations, malls, movie theaters and banks. Located a short distance from the interstates, people in Buckhorn have easy commute to Tampa, Brandon Florida, MacDill, or Lakeland Florida.
