Discover Sparrow: The Rooftop Bar Destination in St. Pete
One of the most highly anticipated features of Moxy St Pete is Sparrow, an expansive 12,500 square-foot rooftop bar and restaurant with a retro theme. Sparrow promises to be the ultimate destination rooftop bar in St. Pete, offering not just incredible views but also a vibrant atmosphere. Alongside Sparrow, the rooftop will also feature a stylish pool and an outdoor garden, creating an urban oasis. An arcade area adds to the playful and engaging environment. The developers envision these rooftop spaces at Moxy St Pete as more than just leisure spots; they are designed to host a variety of art, music, and wellness events, further cultivating a sense of community and inclusivity.
Moxy St Pete’s commitment to the community extends beyond its building. A significant 7,500 square feet is dedicated to communal gardens, situated between the hotel and the neighboring 1246 Central Avenue. This thoughtfully designed green space is intended to be a lively venue for live music, art exhibitions, and various community activities, creating an engaging and vibrant hub for both visitors and St. Pete residents right in the heart of the EDGE District.
The developers of Moxy St Pete aimed to honor St. Petersburg’s rich history and pedestrian-friendly character. Active arcades are incorporated into the design, enhancing the connections between key streets and enriching the urban landscape. This thoughtful approach is characteristic of developers PTM Partners and DoveHill Capital Management, who are known for their dedication to community-focused development projects, making Moxy St Pete a perfect example of their vision.
