The neighborhood's prime urban location makes it truly walkable and allows many to live without need for a car. Historic Burns Square, an eclectic mix of boutique shopping, fine dining and an independent movie theater is only a block west from Cherry Lane Studios. Sarasota's main street is a five minute walk North and Towles Court Artist Colony borders the neighborhood to the North/East. Plus, Sarasota County's SCAT bus system is convenient for easily traveling beyond the downtown core.
