No other significant named large-scale new construction projects (e.g., major subdivisions or multi-unit developments specifically identified in DeLand Southwest) were found with verifiable details tied precisely to the neighborhood as of the current date. Scattered new single-family homes and small townhome builds by various builders (such as Maronda Homes, Richmond American Homes, Risewell Homes, Hartizen Homes, and others) appear in listings for the area, often on individual lots or smaller sites, but lack project-level naming, scale, or detailed public announcements matching the criteria. Smaller initiatives like the 10-unit tiny-home village (The Neighborhood Center of West Volusia, ~114 W. Walts Ave., under construction with ~2027 completion) are in broader DeLand but not confirmed as Southwest-specific.[3]
