Seven teams in total responded to St. Petersburg\u2019s request for proposals; one idea included a 75,000-square-foot mixed-use center that would include mixed-income housing, retail, and public gathering spaces.<\/p>\n<p>The 126-unit development will occupy a 3.03-acre site that is mostly vacant. The venture is planned along 22nd Street South between Fairfield Ave. and Interstate 275, St. Petersburg, Florida, 33707, in Pinellas County.<\/p>\n<p> <a href=\"http:\/\/eepurl.com\/hud0UH\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Subscribe<\/a> to YIMBY\u2019s daily e-mail<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/google.com\/preferences\/source?q=https%3A%2F%2Ffloridayimby.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/1788466582_753_google_preferred_source_badge.png\" width=\"245\" height=\"40\" alt=\"Make YIMBY preferred on Google\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/instagram.com\/yimbygram\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">Follow<\/a> YIMBYgram for real-time photo updates<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/YIMBYFB\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Like<\/a>\u00a0YIMBY on Facebook<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/yimbytweets\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">Follow<\/a> YIMBY\u2019s Twitter for the latest in YIMBYnews<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/floridayimby.com\/category\/uncategorized\" rel=\"category tag nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Uncategorized<\/a><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Florida YIMBY has an update regarding the Deuces Rising project in St. Petersburg.
