The Joe's Creek Watershed area that stretches over 9,000 acres and houses dozens of industrial warehouses in unincorporated Pinellas County could be redeveloped into a mixed-use destination.

The Lealman Community Redevelopment Area Advisory Committee unanimously voted Wednesday evening to approve $250,000 in CRA funding to select a developer, serving as a consultant, to study the best future uses for the area, which also includes portions of Kenneth City, Lealman, Pinellas Park and St. Petersburg.

Six city officials decided Land Design's qualifications and vision were best to transform blighted, underutilized areas underneath I-275 in St. Petersburg into park and event spaces that will connect bifurcated neighborhoods. They selected the Orlando-based company over Chen Moore and Associates and Kimley-Horn and Associates at Thursday’s evaluation meeting.
