By the end of 2025, 96 new affordable and attainable apartments, with the look and feel of a market-rate development, will be available when New Trail Plaza opens for occupancy.

The development will be built on 3.5 of 6.2 acres acquired from Sarasota County along North Tamiami Trail between 46th and 47th streets. For now, Blue Sky Communities has no plans for the remaining 2.7 acres east of the development.
