A new residential project is bringing a more intimate style of luxury to downtown St. Petersburg. The Cade St. Pete is a seven-story mid-rise collection of just 15 curated residences overlooking Mirror Lake, designed with a distinctly residential feel that sets it apart from the city’s larger high-rise developments. With only expansive three and four bedroom units, each exceeding 2,100 square feet, the focus is placed on space, privacy and livability rather than density, offering buyers a sophisticated alternative to conventional condominium living.
Thoughtful Design That Stands Apart
The architecture and design philosophy behind The Cade St. Pete emphasize personalization and thoughtful craftsmanship. Residences are intentionally curated to feel refined yet adaptable, appealing to homeowners who value individuality and elevated design. Every primary living space faces east toward Mirror Lake and downtown St. Pete, while the upper floors extend views toward Tampa Bay, blending serene lakefront scenery with the city’s evolving skyline.
A Connection to St. Petersburg’s History
A meaningful connection to St. Petersburg’s history is woven into the building’s identity. The Cade draws inspiration from the nearby Cade Allen House, a historic landmark currently being restored by Backstreets Capital. Salvaged stone from the original home is being incorporated into the building’s entryway, creating a visual and architectural link between past and present. It’s a detail that reinforces the project’s sense of place within the neighborhood and sets it apart from every other new development in downtown St. Pete.
Amenities Built for Privacy, Not Performance
Amenities at The Cade St. Pete are designed to feel private and residential rather than resort-like. The second floor amenity deck features a covered patio area, plunge pool with fountain and a gas fireplace surrounded by seating, an inviting space for quiet gatherings. An expansive fitness center overlooks the deck and includes a yoga area alongside cardio and strength equipment. Inside, a resident lounge offers a catering kitchen, coffee and beverage bar, workspaces and a reading nook with views of the outdoor terrace.
Features That Elevate Daily Living
Practical features further set The Cade apart. Each residence includes owner-assigned storage both on the residential floor and within the secured garage. Assigned parking spaces are prewired for EV charging, with select spaces prepared for optional car lifts. A weekday building steward provides on-site support, while hurricane-rated windows and doors, large-missile impact glazing on all floors and a concrete-and-masonry structure add durability and peace of mind.
A Rare Opportunity in Downtown St. Pete
Set within walking distance of downtown St. Pete’s arts, dining and waterfront experiences, The Cade offers a rare balance of privacy and connection. For buyers seeking boutique scale, timeless design and a more refined lifestyle along Mirror Lake, this thoughtfully crafted development represents a distinctive new chapter in the city’s evolving residential landscape.
