FIRST LOOK Englewood Florida's NEW Downtown

[@paularroyo3751]

I have to admit that Englewood's appeal is steadily growing with me and my Wife. This spiffy new downtown definitely adds to it's attraction and can only get better. So much potential. I hope it continues to expand with more restaurants, businesses and attractions. Perhaps a future video that explores the Dearborn Street nightlife. Thank you for walking through the area and showing us around. It helps those of us that can't be there. Great content as usual. 👍

We love Englewood! Thanks for the video idea Paul. It would be fun to explore the night life specially with all the live music. We might have to do some sort of “bar-hopping”

You totally overlooked the award-winning Art Alliance of Lemon Bay Gallery & Gifts right next to Joe Maxx Coffee!! It’s an amazing Art gallery featuring 45 of the most talented local artists around . It’s incredible!! Some of the best local art!

I moved in November of 2021…everything was busted up then. 1:43 Tearing down the Blue Pagoda! Mary Lou Evans ran that place for years as a florist and gift shop. Her husband Larry developed many new varieties of Orchids in the greenhouse. 12:23 Comadres…don’t waste your time and money. 12:35 Glad they finally got that doofus to take the junk car off the roof.

The mural is beautiful. A little green grass on those lots would spruce things up.

[@LifeInVeniceFlorida]

It really is. They’re still working on it so who knows they might add grass!

Wish they would have food trucks during the festivals.

I enjoy watching your video! I'm moving to the area so this is very helpful!

[@LifeInVeniceFlorida]

Glad it was helpful! Have you been to the area yet?

@@LifeInVeniceFlorida Only Venice and North Port where I was looking for a house. I decided to buy a new construction in Wellen Park!

[@cindyvitale9515]

Thanks for the video. But every time we go to Dearborn St, everything is closed. I don’t know when to go.

[@LifeInVeniceFlorida]

Try going early in the day. Most restaurants and coffee shops close around 3pm and open again around 5pm. This day we went around 11am on a week day and pretty much everything was open.

Thats the old hardware store

[@katjohnson6412]

I wish they would have had the old brick roads. I don’t like the modern look.

I feel the developers of Wellen Park should develop here too. North Port should just overtake Englewood in my opinion and make it all new to match
