The first Village Recognition Sign, on the corner of Marigold Avenue and KOA Street in Village 2, is the Estates of Deerwood Village. This project was initiated after the iconic “Welcome to Poinciana” sign was removed. Coming soon will be signs in each of the villages: Reedy Creek Village (Village 1); Cypress Village (3); Pinewood Village (5); London Creek Village (6); Lake Marion Village (7); Timber Lake Village (8) and Broadmoor Village (9). Be on the lookout for these signs.
