This looks terrific. I love St. Pete and can't wait to go down and check out the new Pier once it's finished.

400 Central's taller tower will become the new tallest for the city and Pinellas County at 515ft.

St. Pete panel approves 45-story condo tower. Would be West Florida’s tallest.

Quote:

Despite the nay-saying, the city’s Development Review Commission on Wednesday unanimously approved site plans for a $300 million mixed-use project on Central Avenue that could include the tallest condo tower on Florida’s West Coast. Although the developer, New York-based Red Apple Group, still must meet several conditions, site preparation work could begin this spring on the 45-story tower, a 20-story hotel and a 842-space parking garage.

Because of the relative proximity to Albert Whitted Airport, Red Apple will need approval from the Federal Aviation Administration for a condo tower proposed at 515 feet. That would exceed the height of ONE St. Petersburg, a recently completed 456-foot tower a few blocks to the east that now holds the height record.

To build as big as it plans, Red Apple also will have to buy development rights from existing buildings. That helps preserve historic buildings such as the Snell Arcade whose owners are limited in what they can do to their own property.

Several people spoke in favor of the project, including a ONE St. Petersburg resident, engineer Mac Roopani..

Can we merge these two threads? I made one earlier this year when first announced.

Very nice.

Love this rendering on a side note.

I don't know if this should be sent to the construction forum so quickly --- I've heard construction hasn't started beside a groundbreaking, but it might've by now. Photos of the site would help, but the social media for the tower provides nothing.

From what I have seen in an rendering and information in this article, it looks like there will be an observation deck open to the public on the top floor of this building. Does anyone here know if this observation deck will be open to the public.
