City of Tampa announces plans to ‘revitalize' north downtown area
TAMPA, Fla. (WFLA) — The City of Tampa announced plans Tuesday to 'revitalize' what the city called 'an underutilized part of downtown.'
The city looks to redevelop around four acres of the northern portion of the Central Business District, an area between North Tampa Street and East Ashley Drive.
Former Tampa Mayor Buckhorn 'really looking hard' at potential 2027 run
The goal is to turn city-owned properties, like the old Army-Navy Surplus Market, into mixed-use commercial and residential development. The Request for Proposal requires a minimum of 750 housing units, half of which must be 'affordable.'
The project fits into existing plans to improve connectivity for pedestrians and those who use public transportation downtown, the city said, as well as other developments in the urban core.
'This long-term planning and teamwork involving state and local partners are the special ingredients that build strong and thriving cities,' Mayor Jane Castor said in a statement. 'We are excited to begin the process of adding much needed affordable housing to this great location in our urban core and cannot wait for the other redevelopment projects in this area that will make it more walkable and accessible for all those living, working, and visiting Tampa's beautiful downtown.'
The Request for Proposal closes on June 13. After that, the city will evaluate the submitted proposals and select a finalist.
