Some on city board criticize downtown project's design

SARASOTA — Three members of a redevelopment advisory board on Monday used the words "cheap," "institutional" and "flat" to describe a project proposed for city-owned land on Palm Avenue.
The Sarasota Herald Tribune story of the Community Redevelopment Agency Advisory Board meeting was "entertaining" but unfortunately I have to laugh at my own "expense" .... really is my expense as a taxpayer... I don't have an opinion on the building as I didn't see them.... and we sort of I guess maybe need the parking spaces .. I am sure the local arts community will like them when the dust settles someday.
