St. Petersburg, FL (November 18, 2025) – European Equities is pleased to announce the signing of a five-year lease agreement with Bouquet & Bordeaux, which will occupy a 2,731-square-foot space at Star Plaza in the heart of St. Petersburg’s dynamic Edge District. The lease was brokered by Chris Niewiarowski, who represented European Equities in the transaction.
Bouquet & Bordeaux is a Paris-inspired floral wine bar and full-day lifestyle destination in the heart of St. Petersburg, created around the simple belief that beauty belongs in the everyday. Blending the romance of European flower shops with the warmth of Southern hospitality, the concept brings together fresh florals, handcrafted coffee, pastries, curated wines, artisanal bites, and creative experiences under one roof.
Designed as a place to slow down, sip, and savor something beautiful, Bouquet & Bordeaux offers something for every part of the day—from morning espresso and pastries to afternoon floral arranging and evening wine with friends. Whether guests are stopping in for a quiet moment, a creative gathering, or a special celebration, the space is intended to feel elevated, effortless, and welcoming.
“Bouquet & Bordeaux brings a creative and elevated concept to Star Plaza, combining wine, florals, coffee, and community in a way that feels fresh and unique to the St. Petersburg market,” said Chris N., who brokered the transaction. “It is exactly the kind of destination tenant that adds character, energy, and long-term value to the property.”
Star Plaza continues to build momentum as a vibrant destination for health, wellness, dining, boutique retail, and service-based businesses. The center is home to an established mix of local operators, including Bank United, Leann’s Nails, and Rare Body Studio, and has recently welcomed a growing roster of new concepts such as Velvet Coupe Wine Bar, Central Express Vet, Peach Pump, and The Burg Nutrition.
Surrounded by more than 101,000 people and over 7,400 businesses within a five-mile radius, Star Plaza offers strong visibility, consistent daytime traffic, and a highly accessible location for retailers and service providers seeking to grow within one of St. Petersburg’s most active commercial corridors.
