The Twisted Indian is opening a restaurant in the Grand Central District
/
If you are a regular at the bustling Saturday Morning Market (pre-COVID) or found yourself popping into what once was Baum Avenue Market in the EDGE District, the name “The Twisted Indian,” should bring a warm smile to your face. But as outdoor markets and food trucks were put on hold and Baum Avenue Market transitioned into single tenant space occupied by Karma Juice Bar and Eatery, the delicious Indian fare seemed to almost disappear in an instant.
Well, we can all breathe a collective sigh of relief as we gear up to welcome The Twisted Indian into its first brick and mortar location at 2639 Central Avenue, which is slated to host its grand opening in April.

A 16-story apartment tower has been proposed across from the University of South Florida St. Petersburg campus, replacing a larger project approved for the same property last year.
The proposed development would rise at 446 4th Street South, at the northeast corner of 5th Avenue South and 4th Street South.
The 0.7-acre property is currently home to a 105-year-old commercial building previously occupied by Fresenius Kidney Care American Dialysis Center and an adjacent surface parking lot.
The project, which would be developed by Charleston, South Carolina-based The Beach Company, will contain 165 apartments, approximately 3,200 square feet of ground-floor retail space, a 176-space parking garage, and 178 bicycle spaces.
It’s a significant change from the development St. Petersburg City Council approved for the site in February 2025.
