Description

Own a Piece of History - This is simply St Petersburg excellence at its best
Renovation Play or Land redevelopment Play of 26,400 sf of Land.


This Offering is for the last of the grande dames of St Petersburg's historical past. The Site is currently known as the Play House Theater which was built in 1925 as an open-air venue called The Patio during St Pete boom years.

The complete offering is an entire city block with two main structures, parking, and two-income producing billboards. The front historical building consists of the front entry doors opening up to a theatre type lobby with a former Speakeasy to the right. The lobby has two stairwells, one on both sides. The lobby leads up to the very expansive main floor which has multi-levels that allows for great views of the entire venue.

The main floor looks over the former main stage with a 30-foot archway and orchestra pit. The current stage has been elevated in a previous life to make room for the main bar and kitchen. The second floor consists of an extremely large balcony area and another bar.

This front building will require renovations to bring her up to her original elegance. The second building has frontage on First Avenue South, this building is occupied by a tenant who operates a night club. This second building is newer and consists of two floors with bars, restrooms and dance floor.

The Site has great zoning - CCT-2, which allows an abundance of possibilities including restaurant, retail, bar, office, co-work space, multi-family, boutique hotel or mix use. The Site has two income-producing billboards plus the Night Club tenant.

It should be noted that this Site will be a Destination Place in a Destination District in a Destination Downtown in a Destination city in a Destination state.

What are Real Estate Incentives?

Real Estate incentives range widely and have been overlooked by the Commercial Multiple Listing Services (MLS) for decades. Real estate incentives is a generic term used to group any number of programs, such as tax incentives, that are designated by an agency for a geographic area."

Why are Real Estate Incentives Important and to Whom?

"Incentives" are vital today and in the future because:

  • U.S. Public: Many incentives focus on job creation and Affordable Housing
  • Investors and Commercial Developers use incentives to reduce financial risk, obtain gap financing, etc. Investors and developers look for property listings with incentives available.
  • Commercial Real Estate Brokers, in mass, unfortunately do not know about incentives tied to their listings
  • Entire Supply Chain of Real Estate Development such as small and large companies who will provide goods and services to new and revitalized properties.
