The Quay Sarasota Waterfront District
The Quay will be a walkable extension of our urban downtown. It will encompass outdoor recreation and entertainment spaces, upscale dining and shopping, and of course a venue for the arts and culture for which Sarasota is so well-known. In addition, the project will incorporate and connect the scenic Multi-Use Recreational Trail (MURT) which currently runs along the Bayfront from Selby Gardens on the south end to Ringling Museum on the north end.
The master developer, GreenPointe will invest upwards of $1 billion to complete the horizontal development and is partnering with other developers for construct the vertical structures. The vision is to be completed by 2025.

The Historic Belle Haven
The Belle Haven is an iconic building for the City of Sarasota. Built in 1926, many living in Sarasota today have a personal connection to its history. Over the years it has served as a hotel, an office, and an apartment building. Local residents can take comfort in knowing that it has been fully restored and preserved- and will remain as an architectural jewel in the heart of the new and trendy Quay Development. The building is currently zoned as Downtown Bayfront (DTB), and as such there are many possibilities for it to be transformed for its new purpose- be it another hotel, professional office, multifamily residential, restaurant, retail, mixed-use, or even a private residence.
