December 15, 2021/ Anthony Close

This edition of Aerial St. Pete shows the latest progress on several developments in St. Pete’s Grand Central District. 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 team up with Anthony Bove at AB3 Visuals. In the past, Aerial St. Pete has once a quarter; however, in the future we plan on running the column more frequently to cover more projects in more neighborhoods of St. Pete.

In this column, we are looking at four projects in the Grand Central District which is comprised of the area from 16th Street west to 31st Street between 1st Avenues North and South.

These projects include: Six Point Row, Gallery 3100, Driftwood on Central, and the townhomes at 2801 1st Avenue South.

24-unit townhome project proposed for the Grand Central District in St. Pete

May 19, 2021/ Anthony Close

Earlier this year, St. Pete Rising reported on the sale of a quarter-acre site at the corner of Central Avenue and 28th Street in the Grand Central District.

The lot was sold to ASH Developers who plans to construct a 5-story mixed-use building on the site. The project is expected to include 14 residential units and two retail units fronting Central Avenue.

Now, a nearly one-acre lot just south of that site has been sold to a national real estate developer who plans to build a townhome community. Vertica Founding Partners, T. Sean Lance and Max Boehmer, had the exclusive right to sell the property and represented the owners in the transaction. The 0.86-acre site was sold to David Weekley Homes for $1,750,000.
