Storm-damaged mobile home park’s redevelopment stalls

Hurricane damage and a complex redevelopment process have left residents at the Twin City Mobile Home Park in limbo.

The flood-prone, 71-year-old community is at 10636 Gandy Boulevard, near Derby Lane. It is also within an isolated section of unincorporated Pinellas County, surrounded by the City of St. Petersburg.

St. Pete advances Gas Plant proposal process

Mayor Ken Welch told the Catalyst in May that St. Petersburg would prioritize creating affordable senior housing around Tropicana Field. That is the sole focus of a redevelopment proposal submitted Oct. 8.

The Pinellas County Housing Authority (PCHA) hopes to construct an 80-unit facility for low-income seniors, particularly those who once lived in the Historic Gas Plant District, at 1659 3rd Ave. S. The site is currently a city-owned parking lot used for Tampa Bay Rays games.
