With vistas of and easy access to Downtown, Ybor City and Channelside, the Central Park area promises to become a new urban neighborhood of residents, restaurants, shops, parks, and businesses. Our long-term redevelopment efforts continue to focus on supporting the vision of Bank of America and the Tampa Housing Authority to transform the former Central Park Village public housing complex into a new 28 acre mixed-use, mixed-income community called Encore. By embracing the culturally rich history of the neighborhood’s past and the best principles of high density urban living, Encore will set the direction for a distinctive rebirth of the Central Park area.
