Like a flower pushing up through concrete, a unique neighborhood is blossoming in Tampa. Water Street Tampa is undergoing development from the ground up on more than 50 acres in downtown Tampa along the waterfront. The developer, Tampa-based Strategic Property Partners (SPP), is putting health and well-being at the forefront of the transformation with innovative urban planning that provides a blueprint for what a city can be.
The Water Street Tampa initiative is revitalizing an underutilized tract of land to create an urban mixed-use waterfront district encompassing about 9 million square feet zoned for multiple uses, including commercial, residential, hospitality, cultural, entertainment, education and retail, totaling over $3 billion in private investment from SPP.
