The stadium plans will be discussed in a Committee of the Whole (COW) meeting on June 12th. The Tampa Bay Rays anticipate getting approvals in July and ultimately expect to begin construction in early 2025 with a planned opening in time for the 2028 baseball season.

The Violet Stone, which opened a brick-and-mortar location in 2023 at 2134 9th Avenue North, will relocate later this year to 2609 Dr. MLK Jr. Street North in St. Pete's Crescent Heights community.
The space formerly housed the House of Pipes and Cigars and vegan cafe Neighborhood Joe, which relocated two blocks away to a space next to Trip’s Diner.

Husband-and-wife duo Hope Montgomery and Jason Ruhe plan to open a new Latin-inspired eatery, Pulpo Kitchen + Lounge, at 2147 Central Avenue in mid-June.
Pulpo, which translates to "octopus" in Spanish, will serve a twist on traditional South American dishes and cocktails with bold and robust flavors. The restaurant was first reported by St. Pete Rising in January 2023.
"This concept has been my brainchild for the past three years to fill a void in the area. We started doing the buildout about a year ago," Ruhe said to St. Pete Rising.
