A 14-story boutique condominium completed in 1999, this intimate mid-rise contains roughly three residences per floor and a small number of penthouses. Architecturally restrained and waterfront-oriented, the building emphasizes large windows, balconies, and sightlines toward the Vinoy Basin and Tampa Bay. Interiors commonly feature three-bedroom floorplans with open layouts, high and vaulted ceilings, tray/coffered details, stone or hardwood floors, built-in millwork, wet/dry bars, and gourmet kitchens with solid wood cabinetry and stone counters. Many units include multiple outdoor terraces, wraparound windows, private foyers on upper units, and auxiliary spaces such as media/den rooms and walk-in closets. Shared areas are scaled to neighborhood living: a staffed lobby with secured entry and key-controlled elevators, fitness room, billiards/card room, lounge/club rooms, heated lap pool and sundeck, covered guest suite for owners’ visitors, landscaped gazebo/pavilion, and on-site management. Practical amenities include assigned deeded garage parking (typically two spaces), climate-controlled storage lockers, an on-site laundry or full-size laundry in unit, and limited concierge services. The property fronts Beach Drive in downtown St. Petersburg within walking distance of museums, parks, restaurants, the Pier, marina and public transit — offering a cultured, walkable waterfront lifestyle with strong views and a low-density residential character.
