Our district runs from 1st Avenue North to 10th Avenue South and 16th Street to 31st Street. For decades, much of this area was industrial (and part of it is still zoned as such), populated with warehouses and small manufacturing companies. But artists saw potential. A warehouse has special appeal to those who like to work large or need heavy duty equipment. There are already approximately 200 artists, arts businesses and organizations within the boundaries including Duncan McClellan Glass, MGA Sculpture Studio and the Morean Center for Clay which has occupied the Seaboard building since 2000. warehouseartsdistrictstpete.com/about
