On November 30, 2019,  sunset behind an ever changing downtown St. Petersburg, Florida was photographed from the Royal Caribbean Rhapsody of the Seas.

This past week, St Petersburg’s Development Review Commission (DRC) unanimously approved the 45-story mixed use tower located at 400 Central Avenue.

The fate of the Tropicana Field and Tampa Bay Rays continues to be an unknown. The City declined to split the season with Montreal. Tampa Bay's baseball fans are caught in the middle.

Tropicana Field has 80 acres and a close proximity to Interstate 275 and a downtown that is busting at the seams with condos, apartments, restaurants and nightlife. The City desperately needs office space. The Tropicana Field property may be more valuable to the City and residents as a business park and mixed used property.
