“We shape our buildings, thereafter they shape us.” ~ Winston Churchill ~
The urban landscape of Sarasota is constantly changing. This is very evident as you drive around the bayfront. Everytime I go downtown, I see another building going up. This is what you see as you approach downtown from the John Ringling Bridge.
The newest construction project is to the left as you approach Highway 41 (locally known as the Tamiami Trail).
The building is on the corner and it curves north along the Tamiami Trail.
And if you turn to the right, you will see the “Unconditional Surrender” statue that I featured in my previous blog.
The backdrop from one side of the statue is Sarasota Bay and the opposite view is of highrise condominiums downtown, as the Tamiami Trail turns south.
