The Grapevine creative team designed the Lakewood Ranch Business Alliance’s annual LWR Guide, which includes a directory and information about the rapidly growing region and local businesses. Patrick researched and wrote content for a large feature published in Vol. 4 of the book.

The four-page piece told the story of Benderson Development’s entrance into Lakewood Ranch — now an award-winning, master-planned community — in 1998 with the purchase of an outlet mall that had seen better days. It was the start of the national real estate development company’s long-term vision to create University Town Center, which is now a world-class shopping, dining and entertainment district with incredible appeal.
