Sarasota Alliance for Historic Preservation Announces the 2025 Six to Save Properties

The Giving Coast

The Sarasota Alliance for Historic Preservation (SAHP) announced its 2025 “Six to Save'' properties at an event held on November 13 at Luke Wood Park in Sarasota. Now in its fifth year, this initiative highlights the urgent need to save historic resources from demolition in Sarasota County. This year’s list includes the home of one of Sarasota’s first aldermen, the county’s signature swing bridge, and the area’s first commercial garage—structures dating as far back as 1912. “The Six to Save properties reflect what is happening to our community—renowned for its charm and architectural interest—as it faces continued growth,” said Dave Baber, president of SAHP. “This year’s selections range from a mid-century modern showpiece home now on the market to a public park in need of attention and privately held downtown buildings under development pressure.”
