About Us

The Skyway Marina District Plan is the result of the southern St. Petersburg community and City’s desire to establish a destination district in southern St. Petersburg. The community has been engaged and positive to changes along the corridor that will better ensure its vibrancy and the quality of life for all area residents.  The Skyway Marina District was officially born in October 2013 when the area was named.

District Board

Design Guidelines

As we challenge what a city is and what impact it can have on the lives of those who live, work, and play there, we look to emerging areas to set an example of what that vision should look like. More urban environments are becoming self sufficient, growing economically, drawing residents and visitors, and becoming the front runners for culture, sustainability, and healthy active lifestyles.

The Skyway Marina District has great potential for development and growth with unique amenities, location, and community. Through proper planning the District can become a commercial hub that can compete with neighboring areas.
