ST. PETERSBURG -- A Publix grocery, a bank, maybe a Starbucks coffee shop and office space are elements in the first phase of construction for the Carillon Town Center in the northern end of the city.
The town center is part of the Carillon office park. Echelon Development LLC, the developer, last year scaled down plans for the town center, canceling plans for a multiscreen theater and entertainment venues and concentrating instead on office space.
White Development Co. bought a site from Echelon where a 28,000-square-foot Publix will be built. The site will contain another 17,000 square feet of retail space where developer Jim White hopes for upscale tenants such as Starbucks. Offices will be built atop the retail space.
There also is about 3,000 square feet for a branch bank yet to be named, White said.
It will be about five months before construction of the grocery store begins and another eight months to complete it, White said.
