1000 Boulevard of the Arts

Between The Bay and Quay Harbor

1000 Boulevard of the Arts occupies one of downtown Sarasota's most distinctive new waterfront settings. On one side is The Bay Park, Sarasota's expansive public bayfront park; on the other is Quay Harbor, with its marina, waterfront promenade, restaurants, and shopping.

The location creates two different residential experiences within the same 20-level, 117-residence building. Bay Residences are positioned primarily toward The Bay Park and Sarasota Bay, while Harbor Residences emphasize Quay Harbor, marina activity, and western sunset views.

1000 Boulevard of the Arts is planned to combine 117 private residences, extensive amenities, hotel hospitality, waterfront dining, and a distinctive position between park, bay, harbor, and downtown Sarasota.

Why Buyers Love 1000 Boulevard of the Arts

Park on one side, harbor on the other.

The location is the defining feature. 1000 Boulevard of the Arts places The Bay Park on one side and Quay Harbor on the other, while downtown Sarasota's restaurants, cultural venues, waterfront trails, marinas, and shopping remain within easy reach.

The residence collection also provides unusual variety. Buyers can choose from a one-bedroom-plus-den Harbor residence around 1,300 square feet, multiple two-bedroom-plus-den plans, larger three-bedroom homes, or Bay residences exceeding 3,000 square feet.

The amenity program adds both recreation and everyday functionality, with pool and wellness facilities, coworking spaces, private dining, social rooms, pet amenities, concierge-style services, and valet parking — plus the convenience of the on-site Hyatt Centric Harborside for visiting friends and family.

The Story Behind 1000 Boulevard of the Arts

Where the park meets the harbor.

1000 Boulevard of the Arts is part of the continuing transformation of Sarasota's northern downtown waterfront. Developed by Kolter Urban, the project brings together private condominium residences, hospitality, dining, and waterfront access at the point where The Bay Park and the Quay waterfront district meet.

The Design

SB Architects & Two Collections

Rather than orienting all residences toward a single view corridor, the design creates distinct Bay and Harbor collections. That approach responds directly to the site, allowing one side of the building to engage Sarasota Bay and parkland while the other faces the marina, bridge, and sunset horizon.

Anticipated 2028

Residences, Restaurant & Hotel

The project also reflects the increasingly mixed-use character of The Quay. The inclusion of the Hyatt Centric Harborside and ground-level dining adds activity and services below the private residential floors while access-controlled entries maintain separation for owners.

When finished, 1000 Boulevard of the Arts is planned to combine 117 private residences, extensive amenities, hotel hospitality, waterfront dining, and a distinctive position between park, bay, harbor, and downtown Sarasota.

Residences & Amenities

Bay Residences and Harbor Residences.

1000 Boulevard of the Arts offers 117 residences across 17 distinct floor plans, with interior living areas ranging from approximately 1,285 to 3,105 square feet. Bay Residences emphasize The Bay Park, Sarasota Bay, and skyline views, while Harbor Residences look toward Quay Harbor, the marina, Ringling Causeway, and western sunsets.

Terrace size varies substantially by plan and floor — for example, Bay 1 offers approximately 1,366 square feet of terrace on Level 4, while Harbor 4's terrace ranges from approximately 587 to 1,637 square feet depending on level. Because the community remains in pre-construction, plans, dimensions, and specifications remain subject to final condominium documents and developer revisions.

Buying at 1000 Boulevard of the Arts

Find your residence.

With 17 floor plans and two very different waterfront orientations, choosing a residence at 1000 Boulevard of the Arts requires careful comparison. Buyers should consider Bay versus Harbor orientation, floor level, terrace size, ceiling height, park and Sarasota Bay exposure, marina and Ringling Causeway views, parking, storage, and proximity to the private resident amenities. Floor level can materially affect the residence itself. Terrace dimensions vary on certain plans, select lower-level homes offer unusually expansive outdoor spaces, and upper-level residences gain increased ceiling heights and broader perspectives. Because the community remains in pre-construction, buyers should also review the developer documents, construction schedule, estimated Association expenses, warranties, deposit structure, and final ownership policies. With more than four decades of experience representing Sarasota and Longboat Key's finest properties, Pettingell Professionals helps buyers understand these distinctions and make informed, property-specific decisions.
