Mirada’s site plan has an organic feel as it works around open space and water. The Lagoon and surrounding amenities are centrally located, so they are easy to access from anywhere in the community. Mirada is all ages but includes an active adult area by Lennar that has its own amenity center. Residents of the Lennar active adult neighborhood get to enjoy their own amenities, as well as the larger community amenities. Trails wind through the neighborhoods and connect them, as well as through the open space.

Mirada blends luxury, recreation, and modern design. The wow factor in the community starts with a grand entrance that features multiple entry mounds with fountains.

Metro Development Group has multiple partners in their communities including Streetleaf, a developer of solar streetlights. These streetlights are cost effective, quick to install, and eco-friendly. They are also storm resilient, rated to withstand extreme weather, even Cat 5 hurricanes and the lights stay on even if the electricity goes out. Resiliency, especially against hurricanes, is key in Florida.
