What was once a nearly vacant, derelict, one-story warehouse district just a few years ago is quickly emerging as the premier mixed-use residential, entertainment and cultural destination in Tampa. The evolving district is now home to some of Tampa’s most interesting urban architecture, and is dramatically reshaping Tampa’s skyline. Approximately 1,600 residents now call the district home, and once newly completed projects and projects under construction are fully occupied, they will be joined by approximately 1800 additional neighbors. With streetcar access to the amenities of downtown and Ybor City, the restaurants and shops of Channelside Bay Plaza, the Florida Aquarium and the other walkable destinations, the Channel District is well positioned for continued growth.
