The 22 South Food Hall, the revitalization project in the Deuces area of south St. Petersburg, is set to resurrect as new investors have come to the table.
The Callaloo Group, which opened the food hall inside the historic Manhattan Casino building earlier this year, is now working with the Urban Collective group to breathe new life into the project.
The food hall is a combination of several different mini-restaurants. It was also an incubator for culinary startups and entrepreneurs.
During Thursday’s St. Pete City Council meeting, Mario Farias from the Callaloo Group informed the board how the group recently closed the food hall following the death of business partner Vincent Jackson, a former Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver.
Leigh Fletcher, a real estate lawyer and co-founder of the Rising Tide Innovation Center in St. Pete, is also a partner.
