While the building phase of the project is complete, and the Willis Smith Construction trailer has been removed from the site, landscaping and roads still need to be finished to complete the entire project.
Willis Smith Project Manager Supervisor and Vice President Nathan Carr said his crew still is doing some punch work, filling any chips in tile or adding a dab of paint to make everything just perfect. Willis Smith now will work with any tenants who choose them to perform the interior build-outs for their businesses.
Boylston said Waterside Place tenants will submit their build-out plans to Sarasota County and he expects some of those to be open for business in late May and June. He expects most of the 11 buildings to be filled and open for business by the end of the year.

Sen. Del Marsh said today he was disappointed the Senate didn’t allow what he thinks most people in Alabama want, a chance to vote on whether to allow a lottery and casinos in the state.
“Honestly, I’m disappointed,” Marsh said after his bill fell two votes shy of the 21 needed in the 35-member Senate. “Because I think it was the first attempt for the first time in a long time to have meaningful reform in gaming. A very comprehensive bill that I thought treated the state very fairly and was going to do some good things for the state. But it is what it is.”
