According to the St.Petersburg Tribune, the Development Review Comission(DRC) approved a 16 story, 72 unit condo tower slated to be built on 145 4th Ave N in Downtown St.Petersburg.
The $40 million project would have 13 residential floors above a three floor parking garage.
Many neighborhood associations opposed the proposed project because they believe it is too large for the historic neighborhood. However, the Walker Whitney Plaza condo tower is less than a block away and is of similar size with 56 units on 13 floors.

From the Tampa Bay Times-
"Downtown St. Petersburg seems to have grown a forest of construction cranes in the past few weeks. Several large projects are rising on what were once vacant lots or parking lots. All of the projects, which are in various stages of building, will be rentals and are scheduled for completion later this year or in 2014. Photographer Chris Zuppa took these aerial photos on June 29 to show progress on each."
