Prince Gregor Apartments
is a landmark, 12-unit vintage apartment property located at 844 5th Avenue

The Prince
Gregor was built in the late 1940s during St. Petersburg’s initial population
explosion post-World War II by a German immigrant.

The two-story, interior-corridor building was
constructed in an art-deco architectural style and consists of 12-units which
are a mix of studios, small and large one-bedrooms.
Situated on approximately
0.25 acres just south of Interstate 175, the Prince Gregor is directly west of
the All-Children's and Bayfront Medical Hospital complexes and the USF St. Pete
campus, two of the largest demand drivers in downtown St. Pete.
Residents will enjoy
walkability to jobs, direct bus access, private off-street parking, on-site
laundry facility, a private courtyard and shuffleboard courts.
“The Prince Gregor
received considerable interest from local and out-of-town investors due to the
highly desirable location in St. Petersburg’s urban core,” says Baez. “Our
marketing campaign generated 11 offers within a two week period and we were
able to secure a contract shortly thereafter.
“The buyer ultimately
awarded with the deal was from Canada, and is planning a comprehensive rehab in
efforts of preserving the historical significance of the building.”
