24-unit apartment building proposed for 3rd Avenue South in downtown St. Pete
/
Construction will soon begin on a 12-unit multi-family building at the southwest corner of 3rd Avenue South and 7th Street in downtown St. Pete. Last week, St. Pete’s Community Redevelopment Agency unanimously approved the three-story building which is being developed by Brad Campbell. Campbell is also developing a similar project at 357 5th Street South which will contain 25 units and ground floor retail space.
Like the development at 357 5th Street South, which is currently under construction, Campbell’s latest project will utilize recent changes to the City’s Land Development Regulations that eliminated the mandatory minimum parking requirements for multi-family developments in downtown.
