Special Instructions
The Lido Casino was an enormously popular complex of restaurants, lounges, shops, a swimming pool, cabanas and lifeguard towers built on Sarasota, Florida's Lido Beach. It was designed by architect Ralph Twitchell and built as a WPA project. Eight foot high seahorses adorned the unique facade. It formally opened in 1940. Sadly, it was demolished a mere 28 years later in 1968. The swimming pool is all that remains.
