Ovation, the latest luxury condominium by JMC Development, is rising in downtown St. Petersburg. The 27 story building is expected to be completed by the fall of 2009. It's currently at about 10 stories, and JMC invited a few people to tour the building today. Hardhats on we checked out the views, the floorplans (names of rooms were marked out on the floors), and the construction. I still say - this is THE place to be in downtown St. Petersburg. Located at the corner of Beach Drive NE and 2nd Avenue North, you're in the heart of everything, and could do quite well without a car, though you have two parking spaces. Only two units per floor (3,660 sq ft) with the penthouses having an entire floor, you get both sunrises and sunsets. Let me tell you - the view from the kitchen is gorgeous! Wide water views out over the marinas to Tampa Bay. Look down, and see the tropical pool deck. Watch the boats or the pedestrians..walk to restaurants, cafes, museums, art galleries, colleges, shops, Starbucks, parks, marinas and more. Each luxurious unit has 10 foot ceilings, luxurious amenities, wide glass "walls" with georgeous water views. Learn more and see photos of the tour and the views here ...

Really nice tour and I want the South View over looking the Marina, where I shall moor my little 60 footer ( need to get that as well) there and that should do nicely. The price tag is hefty so I would have to break my piggy bank open but I would expect some nice enhancements thrown in the package.
Nice post Sharon and a really nice way to present. They should pay you for the great publicity you are bringing them.
Later today I'm going to be adding more to the show - I took some building photos this morning and got the photos that Rob took to merge in as well.
William - even though nearly every upgrade you can think of is included as standard, if you act quickly, I think I can convince JMC to "throw in" an additional $100,000 is over-the-top upgrades you might like, such as a superb home entertainment system from Kaleidoscape (where one of my sons works). I'll sponsor you for membership in the St Petersburg Yacht Club, and you can go on the waiting list for one of their slips for your 60 footer, and in the meantime - if you hurry - you can still get a slip at the new dock at the municipal marina, just steps from your door. By the way, JMC has been absolutely fabulous to work with, and does such a tremendous job in customer service "forever" on his developments, that's reward in itself.
Thanks, Bill. When you're here in St Pete I'll arrange a tour for you.
Patricia - every good Realtor® needs to have a hardhat at the ready!
Hi Sharon,
The many posts your done on your beautiful community really show you know your market. Each time I'm amazed at the number of upscale units you have in St. Pete, it must really be something to see. Maybe someday for me...
Wow, what a terrific complex, Sharon. Great presentation. I can;t imagine hoe St. Pete has changed since I was last there...we are talking lots of years here. Hope you find some great clients who want to purchase there.
