First workforce housing development filed under the Live Local Act in Largo nears completion
/
Global real estate firm Trammell Crow Residential is nearing completion of a new 240-unit luxury apartment community in Largo.
Caspia is being constructed on a 9.5-acre property at 705 Redbud Lane near the corner of 8th Avenue SE and Donegan Road.
The community, which is expected to launch preleasing soon, will contain a mix of affordable and market rate housing.
40% of the units will be reserved for households earning at or below 120% of the area median income (AMI), or roughly $68,400 annually in the City of Largo, while the remaining apartments will be rented at market rates.
Groundbreaking on the development began in 2024. Construction is now nearing completion.

St. Petersburg’s oldest arts institution is preparing for the most ambitious expansion in its more than 100-year history.
New renderings have been revealed for the first phase of Arts Center Association, Inc.’s $34 million expansion of the Morean Arts Center at 719 Central Avenue in downtown St. Pete.
The redevelopment calls for a new five-story arts center on an existing surface parking lot at the corner of 8th Street and Central Avenue, bringing the Arts Center and the Chihuly Collection, currently located across the street at 720 Central Avenue, under one roof.
Designed by Wannemacher Jensen Architects, the new building would feature a largely white exterior wrapped in slender vertical fins.
At street level, a sweeping, wave-like opening would rise from the ground floor and fold into the façade, creating a sculptural entrance inspired by the fluid forms and luminous colors of Dale Chihuly’s glasswork.
