See this content in the original post

This month’s edition of Aerial St. Pete shows the progress on several real estate developments throughout St. Petersburg.

Aerial St. Pete is a column by St. Pete Rising which features exclusive aerial photography of projects under construction in St. Petersburg, FL. To accomplish this, we have teamed up with AB3 Visuals

In this article we are taking a look at ARK Innovation Center, Domus Urbana, Echelon Site 9, Marina Club Apartments, and Saltaire.

Each of these projects is under construction and at a different stage of the development cycle. And yet, they’re symbolic in that they show that real estate development activity is occurring throughout St. Pete – not just in downtown.

From Echelon’s multifamily project in the Gateway area to Marina Club Apartments in the Skyway Marina District, there’s new development occurring thorough the Sunshine City.

St. Pete Rising looks froward to continuing to be your source for St. Pete real estate development news and we will continue to track these projects as they near completion.
