Our family recently spent a lovely afternoon in the bustling community of Tradition. Located in Port St. Lucie, Tradition is a master-planned community of neighborhoods, featuring two retail centers with an array of shopping venues, delicious dining destinations, and over 300 acres of trails and lakes along Florida’s Treasure Coast. We strolled through Tradition Square, the cheerful Town Center that reimagines small town living with fresh, modern amenities and experiences with nostalgic charm. This is located in the heart of the community where residents can enjoy events, concerts, dining and more. We grabbed lunch at one of the restaurants in Tradition Square before moving on to our next adventure.
The highlight of our visit to the charming community was a ride on the Tradition’s
recently welcomed autonomous shuttle, TIM (“Tradition in Motion”). This shuttle
offers residents and visitors a convenient, safe and environmentally friendly way to
get around the community. Two routes are available connecting Tradition Town
Square to the Landing Shopping and Talk in the Park. Olivia thoroughly enjoyed
the ride, and it was such a unique way to navigate around the community and
experience life in Tradition.
We rode through both routes but ended up hopping off TIM at Talk in the Park. With
a focus on wellness, Tradition is home to the T-Trail. This trail network winds through the community and connects people to the outdoors while conveniently leading into the Town Center. The T-Trail connects over 300 acres of gorgeous lakes and parks and is perfect for active families such as ours.
