I was actually sort of impressed by Celebration. I mean, granted, I could never live there and the location isn't great, but for a far out suburban development near Disney, it isn't absolutely the end of the world. Also, the oak trees (some live oaks, many actually appear to be water oaks) make the development much much much better. I, too, love mature trees (those aren't quite mature, but a good start) and I am fortunate to have grown up in live oak territory (had an 800 year old oak on my high school's property).

Ybor City also looks quite cool. I have only driven by it, but it is definitely unique in Florida! It has a mixture colonial/Gulf Coast look to it. I much prefer old to new (unless you're going to spend some dough on new to make a truly nice development or build a truly great house).

Thanks for the photos!
