Venice is one of the few cities on Florida's west coast that is not separated from the Gulf by a barrier island. Preserving the original character of Venice, the city created the Historic Venice District and an Architectural Review Board to ensure that new construction or modification of existing buildings conform to the northern Italian renaissance style of the city's original architecture. Designation as a Florida Main Street City by the state further assures that Venice's heritage will be preserved. The Island of Venice offers the unique opportunity of living on or near the Gulf of Mexico. Residents have quick access to the Gulf. At a time when historic downtown areas seem to be vanishing, Venice, Florida is proud to have one that is very much alive with exciting activities, shopping and dining.
