St. Petersburg, Florida – A City of Distinct Neighborhoods

June 13, 2016 by Sharon Fennell Kennedy | St. Petersburg, FL: Pinellas County 7 Comments

St Petersburg SkylineSt.  Petersburg is experiencing tremendous growth and energy in every sector of the city, including its distinct neighborhoods.

Strong civic associations, community pride, unique architectural styles and a wide range of price points make living in St. Petersburg comfortable and convenient.

Within walking or bicycling distance of downtown restaurants, entertainment and waterfront are a number of charming neighborhoods that are experiencing a tremendous revival. Among the most popular are Historic Kenwood, Historic Old Northeast, the Old Southeast, Crescent Lake, Euclid-St. Paul and Woodlawn.

The 1920s era land boom fueled the construction of stunning Mediterranean Revival mansions located in such neighborhoods as the Old Northeast. The 1940s introduced the Craftsman-style bungalows, concentrated primarily in the Kenwood area. And, in 1911, developer Charles Roser created a “streetcar suburb” just south of downtown in an area filled with large oak trees, hilly streets and a winding creek. It has been said that Roser Park has a New England feel because of its hills and trees.

The Council of Neighborhood Associations (CONA), incorporated in July, 1957, is a not-for-profit corporation that represents over 40 neighborhood and civic associations throughout the city. It works cooperatively with local government and the Chamber of Commerce on issues that impact the quality of life for area residents.

For more information on the neighborhoods and CONA, visit www.stpetcona.org

If you are interested in buying or selling in any of these splendid neighborhoods, contact us at the Mesimer Team.

    Je crois qu'à cause de la sécheresse, la Somalie va devoir emprunter auprés de plusieurs institutions de crédit.Une fois rentré dans la spirale de l'endéttement, le pays sera à jamais débiteur et donc sous le contrôle de l'oligarchie financiére.

    ah dentinho. adoro vê-lo a provar a sua estupidez vezes sem conta. "birras da catraia"? só mesmo um parvalhão como você podia dizer tal coisa.você é um jumento que segue a cartilha religiosamente: lei > vida de uma criança. o pior é que a lei é feita por homens, e alguns são certamente feitos do mesmo excremento que você.

    Aah, I should read more carefully, a Minnesota farm. You would think since this is one of the 2-3 blogs I have time to read, I'd get it right. But seriously, travel 20 min from any city in Utah and you will run into that wardrobe too.
