St. Pete school building celebrates 100th anniversary

Community members gathered at the 1701 10th Street S. education building in south St. Petersburg Thursday evening to celebrate its 100th anniversary.

When the facility first opened, it was known as Southside Junior High School. Architect Henry Taylor, who also developed plans for the Vinoy Resort & Golf Club, designed the structure. It cost $400,000 to build, St. Petersburg Museum of History executive director Rui Farias explained at the event.

Charge dropped in fatal garbage truck case

The Pinellas-Pasco State Attorney’s Office has declined to prosecute Nathan Brown, a City of St. Petersburg sanitation worker arrested after a woman was struck and killed by a garbage truck in a downtown alley.

State Attorney Bruce Bartlett filed a “No Information” notice June 5 in Pinellas County court, ending the criminal case against Brown. The filing states that testimony and evidence gathered during the investigation revealed facts and circumstances that “do not warrant prosecution at this time.”
