What's Happening in #Tampa / #StPete: After years of retooling plans for a 29-acre vacant industrial property in west St. Petersburg! Landowner Porter Development LLC, headed by Les Porter, and joint venture partners Falcone Group and Metro Development Group, have submitted funding requests to the City of St. Petersburg and Pinellas County for the project now called Azalea Gateway, a proposed mixed-income multifamily project at 1501 72nd Street North, the former home of Raytheon Technologies. The development group is requesting a $4.9 million contribution from the City of St. Petersburg and $9.9 million from Pinellas County’s Penny for Pinellas funds to help construct phase one of the project. According to the submitted funding requests, Porter Development expects to break ground in early 2025. Construction of the first phase is estimated to cost roughly $104.58 million. https://lnkd.in/eQaRGGQK #stpeterealestate #construction #redevelopment #development #apartments #multifamily #realestate St. Pete Rising Veronica Brezina Anthony Close

True story…. About a month ago, I left a high paying job to take the plunge with my brother into entrepreneurship! Here is what I have learned so far: 1. I don’t like being called a boss. I would rather my team refer to me as their partner. To many leaders think of themselves above others, and that they must be served by their ‘underlings.’ The truth is: you serve your people! 2. Great teams are not just built by finding the most talented people, but rather investing in the RIGHT people. I choose to work with people who are teachable and that want to do great things. True talent is a focus on effort and consistency spread out over a long period of time. 3. I want to transform the construction industry. I have had the priveledge of speaking with so many homeowners and business owners recently. The primary issues I hear are - unreliable contractors, long wait times, and a lack of accountability. My Town Construction is NOT perfect, but we are invested in getting better everyday! Our team is committed to getting better everyday. I am committed to getting better everyday. I am honored to serve this community and to bring visions into reality. So here is my sales pitch today: How can My Town Construction be of value to you? #learning #growing #committedtoexcellence #mytownconstruction #yourtownisourtown

New City of Yes Nugget: Transfer of development rights from Landmarked buildings. Under City of Yes, you will be able to transfer development rights from Landmarked buildings to zoning lots on the same block per COY ZR 75-42: https://lnkd.in/dZhyZvvg Under current zoning regulations the Landmark transfer is confined to adjacent zoning lots or across the street per ZR 74-79 (Special purpose subdistrict East Midtown is an exception to this rule.) Perhaps an even bigger change is Landmark transfers will be allowed in low density R1-R5 districts. Below is an example of a vacant lot (Lot 45) in Midtown. The Landmarks are denoted with a blue circle. Under COY, Lot 45 can purchase development rights from Lot 7, Lot 16, and Lot 20. In PropertyScout you can find these opportunites in a couple clicks.

We are excited to share a monumental stride in infrastructure and connectivity! Our team is working hard on the brand-new "Huntsville Northern Bypass" project, which will redefine the commute in and around northern Huntsville. Here's what's underway: - We're moving an impressive 680,000 cubic yards of material to pave the way for progress. - Laying down 112,000 tons of asphalt to create smooth and durable roadways. - Building a 3.4-mile 4-lane highway, connecting US-431 (Memorial Parkway) to AL-255 (Research Park Blvd.), promises to streamline the flow of traffic, significantly reducing inner-city congestion. This project isn't just about roads; it's about creating a faster, more efficient route to Redstone Arsenal and West Huntsville, supporting our community's growth and enhancing daily commutes! #HuntsvilleHighwayProject #InfrastructureInnovation

Happening now in Kings County, CA. A brand new bridge over Kings River replacing the existing bridge that was built a cool 82 years ago when Franklin Roosevelt was the President of USA and America was well into the Second World War. Tip of the hat to Caltrans and MCM Construction for building a safe passage for all of us for the next 100 years (2024-2124). #civilengineering #sierrageotech #geotechnicalengineering #mcmconstruction #materialstesting
