St. Petersburg, FL – Vector Commercial Real Estate Services is proud to announce its recent mention in a noteworthy St. Pete Rising article, highlighting a prime redevelopment opportunity located at 125 5th Street South, in the heart of downtown St. Petersburg.

The 0.71-acre site, zoned Downtown Center-1 (DC-1), offers unparalleled potential for high-density, mixed-use development. Currently housing an 11,357-square-foot office building, anchored by Wells Fargo Bank, the property stands out as a standout opportunity for visionary developers seeking to contribute to St. Pete’s evolving cityscape. The current lease with Wells Fargo Bank is set to expire in June 2025, clearing the way for prospective development.

Situated just one block from Central Avenue, the property benefits from its location near cultural, retail, and dining landmarks, including proximity to the towering 46-story Residences at 400 Central, set to open later this year.

Insight from Vector Commercial Real Estate Services

The article features commentary from Blakemore Kearney, Vector’s experienced broker, who provides insight into the scarcity of land available for high-density projects downtown.

“Land is scarce for high-density development,” noted Kearney in the piece. “With every new tower that is built downtown, there is one less developable lot available.”

This sentiment underscores the significance of 125 5th Street South as a unique opportunity amid downtown St. Pete’s increasingly competitive development landscape.
