SARASOTA, Fla.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Mira Mar Residences, a limited collection of 70 estate-style bayfront residences across two 18-story towers and set to rise above South Palm Avenue, recently celebrated the opening of its new permanent sales gallery located at 1258 North Palm Avenue in Sarasota.
During the event, attendees heard from Patrick DiPinto, the developer of the project, as well as Jeff LaHurd, Sarasota city historian.
“The Mira Mar site is extraordinary,” said DiPinto, of Seaward Development. “It spans nearly 400 feet down South Palm Avenue and encompasses an acre and a half of land. Mira Mar was the city’s first hotel and first luxury residences, and the site had a casino, auditorium and cigar factory. There were so many amazing aspects of the building, and we learned that we were onto something truly special. It’s really exceptional that we have our incredible century old story, plus incredible bayfront views as far as the eye can see. We believe preserving the long-standing century old tradition of the Mira Mar adds incredible long-term value to the community, and ultimately, our owners are the beneficiaries of this vision.”
The Mira Mar Residences will preserve parts of the historic Mira Mar apartments and pay homage to the former hotel and auditorium that was constructed in the early 1920s. The adaptive reuse project is being touted by architects as a case study for the state of Florida in historic restoration.
The collection of condominium residences will feature three- and four-bedroom homes with modern luxury and sweeping water views on the top floors.
Owners will enjoy private access to best-in-class amenities, including an owners’ speakeasy lounge with stunning bayfront views, resort-style lap pool, massage therapy rooms, yoga and social lawn, infrared saunas, steam rooms, entertaining space with bar area and sunset terrace, a dog park and more.
Seaward Development will renovate and restore the historic portion of the existing Mira Mar property that occupies nearly 400 feet on Palm Avenue and add retail, restaurant and office space.
Nationally recognized historic restoration expert Rick Gonzalez, one of the lead architects on the project, was recently appointed by President Donald J. Trump to the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation. The sales team is taking reservations now.
