THE GRAND CENTRAL DISTRICT Shady tree-lined sidewalks and warm community vibes can be found at the Grand Central District , the proud home of St. Pete Pride and Come Out St. Pete . The district has also become a hot spot for “all-day stays,” where you can start with a gourmet brunch and end with a late-night neon-lit patio session without ever leaving the block. SHINY CHIPS OFF THE BLOCK: Defy your imagination at the Imagine Museum of contemporary glass art. Enjoy Hallow-een on Central , one of the state’s biggest, most creative street fests, where the costumes are as wild as the energy. A FOODIE AND HIPSTER FAVORITE: For Latin-and-beyond fare that’s as bold as the decor, visit Pulpo Kitchen + Lounge . Pro tip: The craft cocktails are works of art. WHERE TO PLAY: Take a swing at Par Bar , a destination for adults who take their 18-hole mini golf as seriously as their craft beer. Sing your heart out with friends at LALA St. Pete in a private karaoke room, or have a ball playing boules or cornhole. WHAT LOCALS KNOW: Bibliophiles flock to Tombolo Books , a mainstay for local author readings. VISITSPC.COM 41
