The Bay will include a new performing arts hall, a promenade, a children’s playspace, amphitheater, three pedestrian bridges across U.S. 41 and, most happily, green space to enjoy the bayfront.
Called The Bay, the project will transform 53 acres of underutilized city waterfront that, up until now, has mostly been a vast parking lot for the Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall.
The Sarasota Bayfront Planning Organization and the design firm Sasaki will share three options for the future of The Bay, 53 acres of Sarasota bayfront property.
