San Remo in Sarasota is a unique waterfront subdivision with a fascinating history. The development of San Remo took several decades to realize its vision, beginning in the mid-1920s but not becoming an established neighborhood until the 1950s. The original idea for the subdivision was conceived by Hattie Campbell, Charlie Belle Collins Lanier, and W.C. Lanier, who sold a parcel of marshy land along Sarasota Bay in 1923.

The initial plans for San Remo were ambitious, with the intention of creating a thriving community with residential and business sections, as well as a luxurious apartment hotel. The name "San Remo" was inspired by an exclusive Italian resort. However, due to the bust of the Florida real estate boom in the 1920s, the development did not proceed as originally intended.

Over the years, the ownership of the land changed hands multiple times. In 1937, Gill-Thomas, Inc. purchased a portion of the San Remo property for investment purposes but did not undertake any development. In 1938, a revised plat for San Remo was filed, but development still did not take place.

It wasn't until 1952 that the Roy Construction Co. acquired the San Remo land and initiated development. The company filled in marshy areas and acquired additional submerged land from the State of Florida, expanding the total area to 50 acres. The development took place in three phases, with each phase marked by the filing of a plat. The homes in San Remo Estates were predominantly modern Ranch Style residences constructed with concrete blocks and featured attached garages.

The Roy Construction Co. played a significant role as the developer, sales promoter, and builder for the subdivision. The company also obtained permission to build a yacht basin, which would eventually revert to the state, allowing all boats to enter while only San Remo Terrace property owners could tie up their boats.

In 1953, San Remo Estates was included in the extension of the Sarasota city limits, following the request of the Roy Construction Co. The annexation faced opposition from some residents but ultimately went through.

San Remo Estates boasted a total of 67 residential lots, with 55 waterfront and 14 inside lots. The streets were paved and had curbs and gutters, and the subdivision featured street lights, city water, and sewer services. Waterfront lots were enhanced with seawalls, providing a beautiful setting for residents.
