Sarasota City Commission Gives Green Light for Mira Mar Rehabilitation Project

Government

During its regularly scheduled City Commission Meeting on Monday, July 7, the Sarasota City Commission unanimously approved a rezone request for the Mira Mar building on South Palm Avenue, changing the 1.2-acre site from downtown core to downtown bayfront zoning. The zoning approval comes after the first city commission unanimous approval for the comprehensive plan amendment on May 19, 2025. Today’s vote gave final approval for the Seaward Development plan to renovate and restore the historic portion of the building that occupies nearly 400 feet on Palm Avenue and add new retail, restaurant and office space, plus build two residential condominium towers behind it.
