ST. PETERSBURG — Mayor Ken Welch made the biggest decision of his political career on Monday, selecting the team led by the Tampa Bay Rays to redevelop Tropicana Field. With the selection, Welch sought to remake history, trying to keep the Rays in St. Petersburg after the team’s threats to leave, to repay the mostly Black community that was plowed over for a stadium, and to court baseball by building a new district that creates jobs and offers affordable homes.
The cost of a new ballpark on the allotted 17 acres of land in St. Petersburg's Gas Plant District redevelopment has a price tag in the billions, and it is uncertain how it is going to be paid for, according to a spokesperson with the city.
