Construction continues on what will soon be the tallest residential building on Florida’s Gulf Coast — The Residences at 400 Central. When complete in 2024, the 46-story tower will contain 301 condominium units, 25,000 square feet of ground floor retail space, and 45,000 square feet of Class A office space.

With initial sitework and extensive underground testing complete, 400 Central has kicked off construction of the permanent foundation for the new $400 million mixed-use tower in downtown St. Petersburg.
