The Residences at 400 Central have selected a construction company to build the 46-story mixed-use tower in the heart of downtown St. Pete. Suffolk Construction Company, Inc. has been selected to complete the project. When finished, it will include 301 condominiums, shops, office space, restaurants and a rooftop observatory. Crews are preparing to drill test pilings for the 400 Central tower foundation. This will be immediately followed by the full-scale start of foundation work.
What are The Residences at 400 Central?
The Residences at 400 Central will create a new neighborhood in downtown St. Petersburg. It will tower 515 feet above downtown St. Petersburg’s Central Avenue. This will allow residents and visitors to have panoramic views from Tampa Bay to the Gulf of Mexico. This residential tower will be full service. It will even include a dedicated lifestyle coordinator who will activate the amenities and engage the community.
The 301 condominium homes will consist of one-to-four-bedroom floor plans and a selection of custom penthouse homes. Residents of 400 Central will have access to over 35,000 square feet of modern, private indoor and outdoor amenities.
The current phase of construction is required to accommodate the insertion of 88 steel-reinforced concrete foundation pilings. Some of these will span six feet in diameter and reach depths of approximately 180 feet.
“The Florida economy remains vibrant, with a limited supply of luxury condominium product available in the very desirable City of St. Petersburg. This wonderful project is well situated to fill that demand,” said John Catsimatidis Sr., founder of Red Apple Real Estate and principal of the development company sponsoring The Residences at 400 Central. “We are thrilled that construction crews are already hard at work on the site and are ready to begin drilling our foundation.”
