Inside the big plans for St. Pete’s Booker CreekWhat was once a natural amenity for historically Black neighborhoods in St. Petersburg now mostly resembles a drainage ditch; however, Booker Creek is on the cusp of a big moment. The urban stream emerges from a nondescript area near the west side of I-275 and Burlington Avenue North and meanders for roughly three miles in South St. Pete. It flows under Central Avenue, around Tropicana Field, beneath I-175 and through Campbell Park and Roser Park before emptying into Bayboro Harbor on the southern edge of the USF St. Petersburg campus. |
