Historic Old Northeast

The historic Old Northeast district abuts downtown and claims nearly 3,000 historic buildings within its boundaries. It also has a pleasant shopping district, restaurants, and a number of city landmarks. Housing is a mix of Mediterranean and bungalow styles in a lushly green setting rife with jacarandas, pines, palms, and magnolias.

Brick streets and granite curbs add to the charm of the area, which also includes North Shore Park to the east, with its swimming, biking, walking, and playing areas as well as a pretty white sand beach. The area also borders Coffee Pot Bay, famous for its resident manatees. The Gizella Kopsick Palm Arboretum is another bucolic addition to the community. The Palladium Theater presents eclectic performances in a former church also in the area. The St. Petersburg transit system provides bus service through the neighborhood, and the busy urban nightlife of downtown is just minutes away.

Neighborhood Events 

Historic Old Northeast has an active neighborhood association appropriately named Historic Old Northeast Neighborhood Association or HONNA. 

You will find monthly neighborhood porch parties, yard sales, neighborhood meetings, and of course their locally famous Candlelight Tour of Homes where local homeowners open their homes to the public. The people who register their homes for this tour are typically the type who put a lot of work into restoring these 100-year-old homes and let their pride of ownership show through.

If you can appreciate historic homes in the slightest, it is truly awe-inspiring to see how much work and creativity is put into these renovated homes. 

Friendly Atmosphere

Whether you are biking through this neighborhood or hanging out at the local Old Northeast Tavern strip mall, you will notice people here are friendly and typically have a zest for life. I feel like the word strip mall is the wrong way to describe the local neighborhood gathering spot. The Old Northeast Tavern is the anchor tenant in this building which also features a pizza place and Black Crow Coffee. I’ll go into more detail about the Old NE Tavern later on.

What also makes this neighborhood-friendly is the active efforts of the neighborhood association that organize monthly porch parties. It’s not always easy to make new friends as an adult so why not live in a neighborhood that facilitates social interaction to meet the people that live around you? You more than likely will find something in common with those who live around you.

Unique Homes

As I mentioned before most of the housing here is a mix of Mediterranean and bungalow styles. There are a good amount of these homes that are also zoned for multi-family use which means you can buy a home and have a legal rental apartment to lease out and make some passive income to apply to your mortgage payment. The St. Pete rental market is super strong and everyone wants to live in Old Northeast so it’s a great option if you’re willing to accommodate renters.
