Lee County Civic Center

Lee County Commissioners voted to rename the Lee County Civic Center Complex in North Fort Myers as Mike Greenwell Regional Park in honor of the late commissioner. 

Lee County commissioners voted to rename the Lee County Civic Center Complex in honor of their late colleague, District 5 Commissioner Mike Greenwell. The facility will now be known as Mike Greenwell Regional Park. Commissioners also held a moment of silence Oct. 21 and announced that flags at all state buildings in Lee County would fly at half-staff in his memory. A native of Lee County and former Boston Red Sox player, Greenwell died Oct. 9 at age 62. He was appointed to the board in 2022 and reelected in 2024.
