Pre-leasing is now underway at 3rd & 3rd, a 33-story apartment tower expected to welcome its first residents in mid-December in downtown St. Petersburg.
The 262-unit building is located at 235 3rd Street South across from the Publix-anchored University Village shopping center. Third Lake Partners, along with St. Pete-based developer Echelon, are developing the project.
KAST Construction broke ground on the tower about two years ago.
3rd & 3rd will include one-, two-, three-, and four-bedroom residences, including three four-bedroom penthouses, along with a 330-space parking garage and approximately 15,000 square feet of ground-floor retail space.
One-bedrooms are currently priced from $2,730 to $3,075 a month, while two-bedroom residences start at $4,570 and three-bedroom units start at $8,585.
The development is already 20% reserved, according to Echelon Senior Vice President of Development Cody LeClair.
