The Brooks is a golf course community development in Lee County adjacent to I-75 that represents a good example of where development in the Ft. Myers and Naples area has pushed east  up against large natural wetland systems and extensive wildlife habitat (including Florida Panther) . The developer, The Bonita Bay Group (TBBG), has worked with environmental concerns to develop a community that contains flow-ways and wildlife habitat extension across the development that serve natural functions and as amenities for the human community.  To the east, across I-75, is a large area of undeveloped wetlands and floodable “uplands” which is a part of the Corkscrew Regional Ecosystem Watershed and is being considered for part of a planned Density Reduction Groundwater Resource area under the Lee County 20/20 planning (Agri Partners Parcel).
