The Archibald Building at 1962 Main Street is one of Downtown Sarasota's most storied and recognizable commercial landmarks — a fully restored, four-story, 19,002 square foot historic building constructed in 1925 and offered for sale at with an established tenant base already in place. Named for Ira G. Archibald, one of Sarasota's founding commercial pioneers, the building has anchored the city's most prominent street for one hundred years. Its comprehensive restoration — guided by an original 1925 Sarasota Times photograph — returned the building to its founding character: original hardwood floors, exposed brick walls, open industrial ceilings, floor-to-ceiling Main Street windows, and the iconic original parapet lettering, discovered intact during reconstruction and proudly reinstated on the building's facade.
Positioned directly across from the Sarasota County Courthouse, Hollywood 20 Theater, and the new mixed-use development Aster & Links in the heart of the downtown core. Sarasota's downtown office vacancy sits at just 4.9%, and the building's occupancy delivers immediate, in-place income with the remaining vacancy representing a straightforward lease-up opportunity in one of Florida's tightest commercial markets. For an investor seeking a landmark asset, or an owner-user who wants a headquarters address that no new construction can replicate, the Archibald Building is a once-in-a-generation opportunity at the center of Downtown Sarasota.
