Another large proposed development on Main Street has the potential to push more commercial activity east in downtown Sarasota with a planned 16-story hotel and condominium project.

SOTA Hotel & Residences would consist of 35 condos and 120 hotel rooms across two parcels of downtown property on the north side of Main Street. Plans call for the demolition of three buildings on the parcels, including the Italian pizzeria Il Panificio.
