The Orange Avenue Parking Lot, located at the southeast corner of Orange Avenue and Second Street in downtown Sarasota, will be closed from Wednesday, July 9, through the end of the month, the City of Sarasota has announced. The temporary closure is necessary while crews make much needed drainage improve- ments to the flood-prone area and reconstruct and repave the parking lot, a news release explains.
