Market turbulence threatens affordable housing initiatives 

Affordable housing market headwinds have reached gale force due to tariffs, legislative uncertainty, labor shortages and general cost increases.

The City of St. Petersburg plans to help 33,800 residents secure affordable housing or remain in their homes by 2030. Providing 25,000 people with tenant assistance is a new goal as monthly rents for an 880-square-foot apartment have surpassed $2,000.

Treasure Island’s iconic Thunderbird: Past, present and future

It’s as tall as a medium-sized lighthouse, if not as bright, but it has shone like a beacon across Gulf Boulevard for 68 years.

The Thunderbird Beach Resort’s neon sign, with the hotel name in white, set against a colorful bird with a majestic wingspan (it’s the mighty thunderbird from Aztec mythology), lets motorists arriving from the mainland know they’ve arrived on Treasure Island. Once you’re face to face with the Thunderbird sign, you’re at the main drag and can only turn right (north towards Madiera Beach) or left (south, in the direction of St. Pete Beach).
