In the early 20th century, John Ringling, the famous circus magnate and art collector, purchased Lido Key as part of his extensive land acquisitions in the Sarasota area. 

Ringling envisioned Lido Key as a glamorous resort destination and invested in its development, including the construction of the iconic Lido Beach Casino in 1940. The casino featured a ballroom, restaurants, and a swimming pool.

Today, Lido Key is a vibrant coastal community known for its pristine beaches, upscale resorts, and a thriving arts scene.
