December 2, 2022 was the deadline for proposals for redevelopment the 86 acre site that currently houses Tropicana Field (and a whole lot of parking) into a new, mixed use “city within a city.”

St. Petersburg received four proposals, including one from the Tampa Bay Rays.

Some background: Back when the Rays were still promoting their split city plan, former Mayor Kriseman had released a previous Request for Proposals to redevelop this site, asking for concepts with and without a baseball stadium.

The city received seven qualified proposals, and Mayor Kriseman chose two finalists, Midtown and Sugar Hill, eventually giving the nod to the Midtown group just before his term ended last year.
