St. Petersburg honors late veteran’s impactful legacy

A historically cold morning in November did not stop dozens of supporters from celebrating a veteran who embodied honor, courage and commitment in his professional and personal life. 

U.S. Navy (Dec.) Seaman Bryant Keith Harrell posthumously received St. Petersburg’s Honored Veteran Award at the 12th annual Veterans Day Ceremony Tuesday. The event returned to the Williams Park Veterans Memorial downtown after moving to City Hall last year following Hurricanes Helene and Milton.

Mayor will extend Trop site proposal timeline

St. Petersburg Mayor Ken Welch will, somewhat reluctantly, provide developers with additional time to submit their vision for a reimagined Historic Gas Plant District, currently home to Tropicana Field.

Welch confirmed Tuesday morning that he will now open a 30-day window in January rather than in the coming days. Two high-profile development firms have requested additional time since the city announced Oct. 21 that it would formally welcome proposals in mid-November.
