Boutique townhome community, SOMA, announced for 4th Avenue South in downtown St. Pete
/Downtown St. Pete is set to see another luxury townhome development as the real estate market continues to see extraordinarily low inventory and strong buyer demand. Several projects in the downtown area have recently sold out including The Royal, a 13-unit townhome development on 4th Avenue South, and Six Point Row, a 19-unit townhome project on 1st Avenue North in the Grand Central District. This demand is fueling the need for more residential units at all price points.
Coming off the success of their last project, the team behind Driftwood on Central, an 11-unit sold-out mixed-use and townhome development that is currently under construction in the Grand Central District, has announced their latest project – SOMA.

Golden Corral is returning to Pinellas County with plans for its first St. Pete restaurant inside the former Hooters at Tyrone Square Mall.
The popular American all-you-eat buffet chain will open at 2250 Tyrone Boulevard, according to plans submitted to the City of St. Petersburg. An opening date has not yet been announced.
The 8,105-square-foot restaurant will take over the building where Hooters operated for 15 years, from 2006 until late 2021. At the time, the chain cited changes in shopping habits and declining mall foot traffic in announcing the closure.
The new Golden Corral will be operated by franchisee Britt Guyer, who owns Golden Corral restaurants in Winter Haven and downtown Tampa. Guyer was not immediately available for comment.
