Homes were built on the north end of Longboat Key in the early 1900's, some of which are still standing.  In the 1920's John Ringling bought hundreds of acres on the south end and planted Australian pine trees along Ringling Boulevard (now Gulf of Mexico Drive) from one end of the island to the other.  He also built the Ritz-Carlton Hotel on New Pass, which was started in 1926 but never finished; it was torn down in 1962 after Arvida bought the land. The area is popular among retirees and is also a popular resort and second home community.  Longboat Key has a population of approximately 8,000 permanent residents and grows to approximately 20,000 during peak tourist season. Gulf of Mexico Drive, also referred to as State Road 789, is the only main thoroughfare and runs north-south throu...
