Mr. John Ringling, visionary and circus magnate, bought the St. Armands Key property in 1917. His plans for development included residential lots and a shopping center laid out in a circle. No bridge to the key had yet been built, so Ringling engaged an old paddle-wheel steamboat aptly-named the “Success” to help with materials transport. His crews labored by dredging canals, erecting seawalls, and installing sidewalks and streets lined with rose-colored curbs. In 1925, work began on a causeway to join St. Armands Key to the mainland.
