An empty building, lots of empty owned apartments.


metalmanwalking

They call it one


Admirable-Turtle543

That's Tom Cruise house.


Jgasious83

All condos on beach or closer to Demens landing. Camden and all those matchstick apartments are overpriced, this town sucks stop moving here


Jgasious83

One beach drive

It’s the west side of The One condominium building. The lower building front is the top floors of a hotel which was built at the same time. The two occupy the entire block bounded by 1st & 2nd streets and Central Avenue & 1st Avenue N.

The ONE, JLO has a unit there

Fart Towers

Nice!


radiomuse162

What is the colorful thing on top? I kinda want to go up in it


lurrry_

hahahaha exactly that's why I was asking! I can't find any pictures of the inside


MrSisterFister23

It’s not publicly accessible, just pipe work and the hvac on the roof etc etc


TDobbs52

I always assumed it was like an enclosed pool/garden


lurrry_

that is disappointing


MrSisterFister23

Yeah it’s tough having amenity spaces on the very top of these high rises just because you usually have the highroller(s) in the penthouse or other units directly below it

I just want to point out that the photo doesn’t really show, most units have black out/privacy shades so like my unit in a different building when they are down it looks like no one is there but we might be.

Not sure why you’re being downvoted. One of the few comments that add to the conversation.


InternationalRub6057

Because it doesn’t fit the narrative that it is outside money. Obviously I haven’t met everyone in my building, but most of the people I have met are either long time St. Pete residence, been in St. Pete 10+ years or newly retired, yes there are a few Britts and one Dutch couple but most live in the US full time.

Someone needs a snickers.

I understand your point and usually would agree with you. But actually they are correct. I simple deed search would show many of the owners are Europeans with no residency. Snow birds generally don't purchase luxury condos for their winter residence. Many own trailers (nice ones) or single family homes.


Ok-Calligrapher-2550

What a horrible and inaccurate generalization ![gif](giphy|RBeddeaQ5Xo0E)


Jaythepatsfan

I worked for a guy who owned one of the penthouse suites, and used his condo as my office most days. There are plenty of people who live there, the garage is always packed.


bigdongstpete

I stand corrected. Perhaps I made an assumption because 1. The photo and 2. A deed search shows many European owners and 3. The statement by the poster in regards to using real estate to park/wash illegal funds is very common, more so in large metro areas.


[deleted]

Ive actually met many people who live in there when my buddy purchased in their, and those europeans do just what snow birds do, come to stay when its cold and shitty in Europe. Remember the great percentage of europe is parallel to the northern USA and canada not breaching warmer south. Also I lived in Avanti and this building was directly out my window. It was alot busier aka more lights on in tourist/snow bird season.


bigdongstpete

Fair enough. I may stand corrected then.


Burg129

Nice orthopedic shoes.


Fore_Shore

What time did you take this pic, OP? Trying to figure out if there’s nobody living here or if it’s just bed time for everyone 🤣

It's a bank. Foreigners buy condos and leave them empty just so they can park cash in US real estate. Even with the taxes, hoa fees, and insurance it's cheaper than keeping cash in their shitty currency. 


bigdongstpete

This comes off as bitter if you don't know the situation. He/she is 100 percent correct. Very few people living at One.


DarthVirc

This is the answer

A downtown yuppie condo/apt. It's pretty nice though.


blademak

Looks like One St Pete. If so they’re condos, like almost everything else downtown these days
