Long-awaited South St. Pete plaza plans still evolving

While interest in St. Petersburg’s derelict Tangerine Plaza has recently soared, city officials will continue working to facilitate an agreement with the Sugar Hill Group.

The development team submitted its latest - and continuously evolving - proposal in June 2022. City council members requested a thorough project update with a current land valuation in January.

Rays’ opening day: No stadium drama, just baseball

For the past five months, discussions surrounding the Tampa Bay Rays have focused on the team and the city's quest to build a new ballpark in St. Petersburg. That, for at least a few hours, changed Thursday.

The last time the Rays played a meaningful game at Tropicana Field was October 4, 2023, when a historically sparse crowd watched the Texas Rangers cruise to a 7-1 win in the American League Wild Card series. However, baseball is back in St. Petersburg and an enthusiastic crowd of 25,025 fans filled the much-maligned stadium to kick off the 2024 season Thursday afternoon.
