The New Mall Coming To University Parkway Sarasota

These are some quick looks at whats being done. Not only is it one of the largest malls on the West Coast of Fl but the Architecture is beautiful. The new bridges for walk ways and bike paths around the Crew lake and boating available. This is not only a mall but a place to have fun enjoy the beauty of everything around the mall also, along with the Mall itself.  I went there to see for myself, skeptical at first how they were to mix the Mall in with NCAA crew and the nature around.  What I found is a site of well mixed beauty, the Architecture,the bike path's, the walking path,s the lake where you can rent a kayak or boat, and yet you can just barely see the mall from the East side and in the Middle is this beautiful Glass atrium.   Yes I was skeptical but that is not the case now.  I do believe this will not only add Jobs but the ability to go biking, walking, boating then stop at the mall for some great shopping.  This is my opinion I know many have their's but I believe this will only enhance our community. Thank You
