initially slated to be complete by 2010 although some residences there were still under construction as of 2013. Mugaon, the second town, may be finished in 2013, and as of May, 2013, construction continues. Work on this town began in mid-2012. In 2013, the chairman of the construction company building the project confirmed that Lavasa will include four large towns. Sports facilities Planned sports facilities include a Nick Faldo-designed golf course and a Manchester City-branded football academy. However, the Nick Faldo website no longer touts the golf course, and a 2010 press release is the sole communication Manchester City has made in reference to a football academy.

Initially partnering with the University of Oxford, by 2010 this British institution detached itself from the project. As of 2010, Symbiosis International University is planning to set up a new liberal arts college campus in the township. As of June 2020, Christ University at Lavasa (Dasve in Mulshi Taluka of Pune District - 412112) offers various UG and PG programmes. The courses include BA-LLB & BBA-LLB (Honours), BBA in Business Analytics, B.Com. in Financial Analytics, BSc in Data Science, BSc in Economics & Analytics, MSc in Data Science, MA in Business Economics, MSc in finance, MBA and PhD in few disciplines.
