No joke: Side Splitters expanding to St. Pete

The Sundial, an upscale retail plaza in downtown St. Petersburg, is rapidly evolving into an entertainment complex. And that is no laughing matter.

Tampa-based Side Splitters Comedy Club will open a new location in the Sundial, between Forbici Modern Italian and the AMC Theater. Owner Brian Thompson signed a lease for a roughly 6,000-square-foot space near bustling Beach Drive last week, and build-out began Wednesday.

St. Pete homeless housing development needs more time

A St. Petersburg development that prioritizes residents who are homeless, disabled or domestic abuse survivors over money is at risk of losing city funding.

City council members will decide Nov. 6 whether or not to amend a funding agreement with St. Vincent de Paul CARES (SVdP). The nonprofit needs another year to complete construction on Vincentian Village.
