On Tuesday, elected officials from St. Pete and Pinellas County broke ground on the Bayou Court Apartments, located at 4201 6th St. S. The site will be home to 60 affordable units.
Officials will also break ground on Innovare, a downtown complex set to open in St. Pete’s Innovation District, located at 850 5th Ave. S, with 50 affordable units planned.
Bayou Court Apartments will offer first dibs to local school and city employees. Others must earn 50-120% of the area median income.
