New mixed-use tower being planned for site of 12-story office building in downtown St. Pete
/
A prime parcel in downtown St. Petersburg could soon be redeveloped, according to a notice sent to tenants of the City Center office building at 100 2nd Avenue South.
The 12-story office building is owned through a joint venture by City Office REIT, Feldman Equities, and Tower Realty Partners. The owners recently announced plans for a multi-million dollar renovation to City Center’s atrium lobby, entrances, and landscaping.
The 242,115-square-foot Class A office building sits on nearly a full city block fronting 2nd Avenue South between 1st Street and 2nd Street. The parcel is located in Downtown Center-1 (DC-1) zoning which allows for intense mixed-use development and a maximum floor area ratio (FAR) of 7.0 with no height restrictions.

A new wine bar and bottle shop specializing in Old World wines is getting ready to open in South Pasadena.
Owners Michael De Salvia and Peter Celli are opening Dolcetto & Co. - Wine Merchant and Wine Bar at 6800 Gulfport Boulevard South, Suite 113, within a large shopping plaza that's also home to Walmart, CVS, Anytime Fitness, and Ace Hardware.
Dolcetto & Co. is expected to open this fall following renovations to the 2,100-square-foot space, which was formerly occupied by Books at Park Place.
The space will be divided roughly in half, with a four-foot barrier separating the retail bottle shop from the wine bar.
De Salvia says Dolcetto & Co. will specialize in traditional Old World wines from France, Italy, and Spain, with selections ranging from moderately priced bottles to premium offerings.
