St. Petersburg Pier (1973)
- The Pier opened in January 1973 as a five-level, concrete-framed structure in the shape of an inverted pyramid.
- The design was constructed using a tubular steel framework to create large windows for panoramic views of Tampa Bay. The largest top level created an ideal location for the observation deck.
- The 15,000-square-foot facility was home to restaurants, shops, and exhibits, and attracted more than two million visitors per year.
- The inverted pyramid-shaped building was designed by William B. Harvard, Sr., founder of Harvard Jolly Architecture in St. Petersburg.
- The Pier closed in 2013 and was demolished in 2015.
