Rare Half-Acre Development Opportunity in Gillespie Park | DTN-Zoned Corner Lot Located in Sarasota’s vibrant Gillespie Park neighborhood, this combined half-acre corner site at 624 Goodrich Avenue and 1705 6th Street presents a unique opportunity for infill development in one of the city’s most sought-after downtown-adjacent districts. The property is zoned DTN (Downtown Neighborhood), allowing for multi-unit residential or townhouse development by-right, with approval through the City of Sarasota’s administrative site plan review—no rezoning required. The zoning supports up to three stories (45 feet) in height and an approximate density of 12 units per acre, offering excellent flexibility for urban residential design. Surrounded by mature streetscapes and walkable to downtown Sarasota’s dining, shopping, and cultural attractions, this site combines convenience with strong neighborhood appeal. Gillespie Park continues to attract attention for its mix of historic charm, new construction, and proximity to Sarasota Bay, The Bay Park, and Lido Beach. This is a rare opportunity to design and build within a centrally located district that embodies Sarasota’s evolving urban lifestyle. All zoning, density, and development potential should be confirmed directly with the City of Sarasota Planning Department.
