Pine Island and Burnt Store

Cape Coral’s booming commercial intersection

Formerly thought of as too far away from bridges, too rural and practically useless as home sites, the area around a Pine Island Road intersection is rumbling with construction.

With Cape Coral rapidly filling up from an influx of a reported 10,000 new residents a year, one of the last large areas of vacant land near the crossroads of Pine Island Road and Burnt Store Road has become very attractive as home sites and commercial developments spring up. A Publix store is scheduled to open in two weeks.
