THIRD LAKE PARTNERS COMPLETES CONSTRUCTION OF CLEARVIEW AT ECHELON CITY CENTER

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla., Oct. 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Third Lake Partners announced the completion of ClearView, a 363-unit Class A multifamily community with ground-floor retail space located within Echelon City Center in St. Petersburg, Florida. The community welcomed its first residents earlier this year.

Developed through a partnership between Third Lake Partners and Echelon, a St. Petersburg based developer, ClearView represents a significant milestone in the continued evolution of Echelon City Center, a $1 billion mixed-use destination. The project further reflects the firms' ongoing collaboration, which also includes the redevelopment of the former UPC office campus in downtown St. Petersburg into a dynamic mixed-use community and 3rd & 3rd, a high-rise multifamily development with ground-floor retail that is expected to open in the first quarter of 2027. Together, the partners continue to deliver thoughtfully designed developments that contribute to the long-term growth and vibrancy of the Tampa Bay region.

ClearView offers luxury apartment living with quartz countertops, soft-close cabinetry, floor-to-ceiling windows, oversized balconies, nine-foot ceilings, wine storage in select units and expansive views of the surrounding area. The community includes a mix of one-, two- and three-bedroom apartment homes, as well as three-bedroom townhomes with private garages.  Residents have access to an extensive collection of amenities, including a resort-style swimming pool with private cabanas, grilling stations and fire pits, a clubhouse featuring an entertainment lounge and golf simulator, indoor and outdoor fitness areas, coworking spaces and dry-cleaning lockers.

"ClearView reflects the type of high-quality residential community that continues to attract residents to St. Petersburg," said Luke Thomas, Managing Partner and Head of Real Estate at Third Lake Partners. "ClearView's integration within Echelon City Center provides residents with direct access to retail, dining, entertainment and everyday conveniences, creating a connected living experience that is increasingly sought after in today's market."

Located approximately 15 minutes from downtown St. Petersburg and 20 minutes from downtown Tampa, ClearView provides convenient access to some of the region's largest employment centers. Residents also benefit from walkable access to a Publix supermarket, restaurants, coffee shops, entertainment venues and other everyday conveniences within Echelon City Center.

"ClearView is an important step in the continued buildout of Echelon City Center," said Robert Forsythe, Founder and Senior Managing Partner of Third Lake Partners. "As the community continues to grow, we believe the combination of residential, retail, dining, entertainment and future commercial uses will create a lasting destination that serves residents, businesses and the broader St. Petersburg community for years to come."

The completion of ClearView represents another major milestone for Echelon City Center and advances the broader vision for a vibrant mixed-use destination in St. Petersburg. As residents continue to move into the community, the project further strengthens the area's appeal as a place to live, work, and gather while supporting the continued growth of the surrounding market.

The development team included KAST Construction as general contractor, ARC3 Architecture as architect and Interior Design Group as interior designer. The community is professionally managed by ZRS Management.
