The City of Cape Coral is considering a plan that would expand development along Burnt Store Road.
While more traffic on a roadway is unwanted most of the time, the possibilities for additional restaurants and grocery stores is welcomed by many community members who normally travel miles for these things.
Burnt Store is the main thoroughfare road from Cape Coral to Charlotte County, and it’s growing fast.
“You have houses coming all over, and if you go back on either side of Burnt Store Road, you’ll see quite expensive houses over here and more modest houses, but a lot of development,” Doug Mason said.

CAPE CORAL, Fla. – When it comes to city parks, it’s hard to find a prettier spot than the site of the future Tropicana Park in northwest Cape Coral.
The land, which sits alongside the North Spreader Canal, doesn’t look like much yet. But it will eventually, and will also be the new home of the Cape Coral Rowing Club.
“We’re very excited about it,” Saundra Weston, the club’s program director, said. “[Rowing] is hugely therapeutic. It’s great, non-impact fitness.”
But getting access to the canal has not been easy for the club.
“I’ve never had to pitch something so hard, that has so many inherent benefits,” Weston said. “I felt a lot like the guy who invented sliced bread but then had to go and market it.”
