Things to Do in St.Armands Circle

In 1893, St. Charles Amand purchased the land that St. Armands Circle, Sarasota, is currently on and homesteaded the land. It was a misspelling of his name on the deeds to the land that led to the name St. Armand (instead of Amand). Amand, and a few other pioneers, began to farm on the land and lived there for quite some time until the land was acquired by John Ringling, when it became known as St. Armands Key in 1917. He then planned and developed an area that included residential lots and a shopping center that had a circular layout and, thus, St. Armands Circle was born.
