The Tampa Bay Rays have submitted a bid to redevelop Tropicana Field and the surrounding land on the edge of downtown St. Petersburg.
The bid was made in partnership with a global real estate investment and development firm.
The club said that in addition to a new ballpark, an ambitious plan for the Historic Gas Plant District would include more than 5,700 multi-family units, 1.4 million square feet of office, 300,000 square feet of retail, 700 hotel rooms, 600 senior living residences and a 2,500 capacity entertainment venue.
The Rays have been pursuing a new home to replace Tropicana Field, the domed stadium where the team has played since its inception in 1998, for more than a decade.
