1000 North, the members-only private dining club co-owned by Michael Jordan, is opening a second Florida location in Sarasota this October, per the operator's Instagram. The expansion carries the Jupiter concept's model — private dining rooms, a wine lounge, and a tiered membership structure — from Florida's Atlantic coast to the Gulf.
The club's entry cost is built around a $5,000 initiation fee and $5,000 in annual dues, a $10,000 first-year commitment that has defined the Jupiter location's membership profile. The Sarasota outpost, per the same announcement, will carry the full programming suite: private dining rooms, an upstairs lounge, and a dedicated wine lounge.
The announcement offered no Sarasota street address, host neighborhood, or square footage. No design team, local partner, or construction timeline beyond the October target was disclosed. The operator directed Instagram followers to a linked news article for additional detail — that coverage is the only additional sourcing implied by the post.
The Jupiter location, as a membership-gated concept with no walk-in access or public reservations, operates outside conventional hospitality marketing channels. The private dining and wine lounge format belongs to a category of club-format dining that has found traction in Florida markets with concentrated affluent populations. Sarasota's demographic profile — arts-focused, seasonal, and with a significant base of part-time and relocated residents — makes it a plausible second market for a concept whose commercial success depends on recruiting a viable founding membership cohort before the first service.
