Curious about DeBary's Future Main Street?
DeBary Main Street Groundbreaking
On January 24th, about 100 residents and business owners in DeBary gathered to celebrate the groundbreaking of the DeBary Main Street project near the DeBary SunRail station. The approximately 50-acre parcel, initially designated for over 1200 homes, will now feature nearly 750 residences – 40% less than allowed – and over 55,000 square feet of commercial space. The retail area will showcase new restaurants and shops, including a 9000-square-foot outdoor community plaza for residents and visitors to enjoy dining, shopping, and recreation.
Despite the inevitability of growth, DeBary’s leadership has actively implemented requirements for developers, ensuring that any growth contributes positively to the community, introducing amenities such as restaurants and shops. The property, comprising 20 acres of a former mobile home park and another 30 acres with dilapidated buildings and invasive vegetation, is set to undergo a transformation into a vibrant community space adorned with native Florida trees.
