Welcome, Institute Square!

Kudos to Orlando Health Bayfront Hospital for the new Institute Square medical complex. This complex is a transformative addition to St. Petersburg, bringing advanced care to the community.

Spanning roughly 200,000 square feet across multiple buildings, the development includes a state-of-the-art medical pavilion for cancer care, orthopedics, and surgery; a dedicated women’s pavilion; and expanded imaging, diagnostics, and research space.

Built around anchor institutions like hospitals, universities, and marine science hubs, the Innovation District relies on projects like this to drive long-term growth. Institute Square cements Orlando Health Bayfront as one of those key anchors by expanding advanced medical and research capabilities and attracting top talent and investment.
