Tropicana Field (commonly known as the Trop) is a multi-purpose domed stadium located in St. Petersburg, Florida, United States. The stadium has been the ballpark of the Tampa Bay Rays of Major League Baseball (MLB) since the team's inaugural season in 1998. The stadium is also used for college football, and from December 2008 to December 2017 was the home of the St. Petersburg Bowl, an annual postseason bowl game. The venue is the only non-retractable domed stadium in Major League Baseball, making it the only year-round indoor venue in MLB. Tropicana Field is the smallest MLB stadium by seating capacity when obstructed-view rows in the uppermost sections are covered with tarps as they are for most Rays games. Tropicana Field opened in 1990 and was originally known as the Florida Suncoast Dome. In 1993, the Tampa Bay Lightning moved to the facility and its name was changed to the ThunderDome until the team moved to their new home in downtown Tampa in 1996. In October 1996, Tropicana Products, a fruit juice company then based in nearby Bradenton, signed a 30-year naming rights deal. Tropicana Field's location and design (especially the ceiling catwalks) have been widely criticized. Along with Oakland Coliseum, it is often cited as one of the worst ballparks in Major League Baseball. Major League Baseball has cited the need to replace Oakland Coliseum and Tropicana Field as one of the primary obstacles to future MLB expansion.In 2023, the Tampa Bay Rays announced a deal with local politicians to build a new stadium near Tropicana Field at an expected cost of $1.2 billion, half of which would fall on taxpayers. The St. Petersburg City Council blocked a proposal to allow St. Petersburg citizens to express their view on the stadium subsidy in an advisory referendum.

Webb's City was a one-stop department store that was located in St. Petersburg, Florida. Founded in 1926, it claimed to be "the World's Most Unusual Drug Store;" founder James Earl "Doc" Webb has been described as "the P. T. Barnum of specialty store retailing". Sideshows included animal tricks, acrobats, and talking mermaids. At its peak, Webb's City had 77 departments, 1,700 employees, and covered about ten city blocks. It was considered a forerunner to the shopping center. The jingle in its radio ad was: "There'll be no more hoppin' around the town a-shoppin', Webb's City is your one-stop shopping store." As shopping centers became popular, business dwindled at Webb's City, which closed in 1979.Doc Webb's philosophy regarding to Webb City was "stack it high and sell it cheap", a tactic years later picked up by Sam Walton for his Walmart empire. Ronald D. Michman and Edward M. Mazze attribute its success in St. Petersburg, which was "populated by a larger than average number of elderly citizens who desired to patronize an interesting complex to spend their pension money". Because of its location, sales, and low prices its shopping base primarily consisted of senior citizens and African Americans. The store hired from the African American community, though it had whites-only shopping areas and purposely did not allow black workers to rise in rank. This racial glass ceiling and discrimination became the focus of Civil Rights sit-ins and controversies during the 1960s.
