40 new townhomes coming to Pinellas Park from D.R. Horton
/
A vacant stretch of land in the heart of Pinellas Park is slated to become a 40-unit townhome development.
National homebuilder D.R. Horton, in partnership with St. Pete-based HP Capital Group, is moving forward with a new project called Townes at Island Lake, located at 4210 78th Avenue North.
The 2.76-acre property sits near the intersection of 78th Avenue North and US 19, close to Ashley Furniture and Walmart Supercenter.
HP Capital Group recently completed the horizontal development of the townhome lots and has handed them over to D.R. Horton to begin vertical construction.

Two years after Hurricane Helene devastated Willy’s Burgers & Booze, the St. Pete Beach watering hole is preparing for a comeback.
The open-air bar and restaurant at 645 Corey Avenue announced recently that construction is beginning following a lengthy permitting process.
A reopening date has not been announced.
“The road back has been anything but easy,” the business shared on Facebook. “We have spent the past 14 months working through the permitting process, navigating delays and obstacles, and doing everything we can to make this day possible.”
“There have been times when the process felt overwhelming, but we have never lost sight of what Willy’s means to so many people,” the post continued.
Known for its burgers, affordable drinks, and laid-back, beachy atmosphere, Willy’s has been closed since the hurricanes of late 2024.
