Globally known Sarasota rowing park seeks to add indoor multi-sport facility

From what was once a borrow pit for Interstate 75 construction has emerged, over the last 12 years, a best-in-class rowing facility in north Sarasota County: Nathan Benderson Park. 

The next phase of its evolution from what once was literally a giant hole in the ground is a planned indoor sports complex and boathouse. The project is a joint effort of Sarasota County Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources and the Nathan Benderson Park Conservancy.
