Old Pasadena. On the west side of St. Petersburg, this waterfront pocket pairs laid-back residential streets with easy access to everyday essentials and the bay. Classic Mediterranean Revival cottages mingle with mid-century ranch homes, many shaded by mature oaks, while Boca Ciega Bay breezes and dazzling sunsets set the evening scene. Weekend cyclists and joggers roll onto the nearby Fred Marquis Pinellas Trail, and the PSTA SunRunner makes car-light trips to dining and arts hubs along Central Avenue refreshingly simple. Set within Pinellas County, Old Pasadena offers a quiet, residential feel with quick connections to beaches, marinas, and boat launches just beyond the neighborhood.
Daily life is comfortably convenient. Coffee spots and family-owned eateries dot Pasadena Avenue, with larger shopping options and medical services in adjacent South Pasadena. Artsy markets, waterfront trails, and kayak launches in neighboring Gulfport add to the weekend rotation. Families appreciate education options such as the highly regarded choice program at Pasadena Fundamental Elementary, while college-bound learners find legal lectures and community events next door at Stetson University College of Law. Boca Ciega High and magnet programs across the city broaden the academic landscape, and local parks and recreation programs keep calendars active.
