SARASOTA, FLA. — Southern Realty Trust has provided a $56.4 million mezzanine loan for Aster & Links, a mixed-use development underway in downtown Sarasota. Situated at the intersection of Main Street and Links Avenue, the development will include two 10-story residential buildings housing 424 luxury apartments, 778 parking spaces and 51,000 square feet of ground-level retail space, including a Sprouts Farmers Market grocery store.
