ONE Saint Petersburg
If you love the condo lifestyle and are looking for unparalleled views of St. Pete – ONE St. Petersburg might be for you. At 41 stories tall the condo tower will be the tallest building in all of Pinellas County, according to the developer’s website. As of June, 120 units had already been reserved.

The lobby will feel airy and beautiful with a 28 foot atrium. On the second story, residents will enjoy an owner’s lounge just for them where they can hold meetings and be connected at all times with the latest technology. Club One will be perfect for cocktail parties or other member’s only events with its sweeping views of the Bay. There’s also plans for a 40,000 square foot resort deck with a pool, cabanas, workout facilities and more. For the truly distinguished buyer, the building’s penthouse is 4,900 square feet and is expected to sell for around $4 million dollars.
