Proposed 324-unit 1899 Fruitville apartment project in downtown Sarasota falls through
A plan by Bristol Development Group for 324 apartments, called 1899 Fruitville, near Fruitville Road and Washington Boulevard is no longer moving forward. Landlords told tenant business owners the project was voided. It had partial city approvals and was reportedly close to final permitting.
What it may mean for the marketThe loss of 324 planned apartments removes expected rental supply near downtown Sarasota and leaves the cottage commercial cluster in place for now. The project is about 6 miles west of Seaplace I, elsewhere in Sarasota County.

Sarasota County opens new $100 million administration building at 1 Apex Road
Sarasota County moved operations into a 121,160 square foot administration building at 1 Apex Road off I-75. It replaces the former building on Ringling Boulevard downtown, which was sold to a developer for about $25 million. Total cost was about $100.15 million, including more than $22 million from a voter-approved surtax.
What it may mean for the marketRelocating county services to the I-75 corridor shifts daily government traffic away from downtown and frees the Ringling Boulevard site for redevelopment. The site is about 2 miles northeast of Seaplace I.

The Seaplace buying strategy.
If we were buying in Seaplace today, this is the order of operations we would run for our clients.
Underwrite the condition first. Price the roof, HVAC, and systems honestly before judging any list price; condition swings value here more than square footage alone.
Match the home to real comps. Recent sales of similar condition and lot, not the asking price, tell you what a home is worth.
Move deliberately, not desperately. Neither side has a decisive edge, so a well-prepared, fairly-priced offer wins without overpaying.
Line up financing and inspection early. A pre-approval and an inspection plan let you act fast and negotiate from evidence.
Keep an agent in your corner. The listing agent works for the seller; we represent you and prepare a hand-built valuation before any offer in Seaplace.
A closer look at the Seaplace market
At a median of $435 per square foot, Seaplace prices sit in a fairly defined band, so condition and updates — more than the list price — tend to separate one home from the next.
The housing stock is 13 homes built around 1974, and 15% of parcels are homesteaded — the owner-occupancy proxy in the Florida DOR assessment roll.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Seaplace. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
What it really costs to own in Seaplace
The parts of the monthly number a mortgage calculator leaves out, from the tax roll, the MLS, Citizens and FEMA. Property facts only.
| HOA dues | Median $1,175/month across 169 MLS listings (most billed quarterly; 2026-10-15). Dues cover what the documents say they cover; ask for the budget and reserve study. |
|---|---|
| Home and flood insurance | The average Citizens Property Insurance premium in Sarasota County is $2,126/yr (4,849 policies, Citizens detail by county, April 2026); private-market quotes depend on roof age, wind mitigation and construction. |
| Roof and age | Median build year 1974 across 7 listings. An original roof here would be about 52 years old; under Florida's 2022 reform (SB 2-D) carriers may require an inspection past 15 years, so budget for a roof report, and for replacement where it fails. |
