A new project inspired by jazz legend Duke Ellington is slated for St. Petersburg, Florida. It’s called Ellington Place, and it features two six-story buildings: Ellington Place Downtown and Ellington Place Edge District. They will be located at 770 4th Avenue North and 200 17th Street North, respectively.
The development as a whole offers 220 units. Ellington Place Downtown is the largest of the two, resting on a larger build site and offering 146 homes. The Tampa Bay Business Journal notes that the Class A homes will measure 500 to 600 square feet each, with rent starting at $1,800 a month. The affordability stems from the units’ modest sizes.

Units feature quartz countertops, pendant lighting, and “high-end flooring.” Per St. Pete Rising, communal amenities include electric vehicle charging stations, a fitness center, rooftop pools, and on-site bike storage. The venture’s groundbreaking ceremony took place in June 2023.

Construction is expected to last 12 months, meaning the apartments could be available in 2024 or 2025. Tony Zhukovskyi originally proposed Ellington Place a few years ago. Then, REM Capital, the developer, acquired the parcels and took charge. The Bradenton-based firm currently has 24 properties across six states.
