When selecting an experience, consider the atmosphere you want to create—lively and social, or intimate and understated.

Being close to marinas and departure points makes the experience feel seamless from arrival to return. #### Where Waterfront Access Becomes Everyday The most memorable gatherings aren’t defined by dates on a calendar, but by how effortlessly they unfold. When waterfront access is woven into daily life, experiences like sunset cruises, impromptu dinners on the bay, and evenings by the marina become part of a natural rhythm shaped by light, water, and connection. It’s this ease that continues to draw attention to the Westshore Marina District as it evolves into one of Tampa Bay’s most desirable waterfront neighborhoods. Within this setting, [Marina Pointe](/ "Westshore Marina District") is preparing to welcome its next generation of residents. ![Docked yachts with modern waterfront buildings behind them](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/marina-pointe-view-from-docks-123025.webp) #### Explore Marina Pointe on Tampa Bay Luna, the community’s newest tower, along with a limited collection of Harbour Homes, introduces a refined approach to waterfront living—one that balances architectural presence with proximity to the bay.

Defined by open water access, protected channels, and destinations reachable within hours, it offers uncommon flexibility for boaters. From Marina Pointe’s private peninsula in the [Westshore Marina District](/the-district-2/ "The District at Marinapointe | Tampa Bay Waterfront Community"), residents sit at a strategic [launch point](/the-marina/ "Waterfront Lifestyle in Tampa Bay") that connects directly to the Bay, the Gulf, and a range of waterfront experiences that shape daily life on the water. This guide outlines key boating routes from Marina Pointe, highlights standout destinations, and offers planning considerations for different boating styles, from relaxed afternoon cruises to full-day excursions. ### Orientation to Tampa Bay’s Waterways Tampa Bay spans more than 400 square miles of open water, channels, and inlets, making it one of the largest natural harbors in the United States. From Marina Pointe, boaters have immediate access to deepwater channels leading south toward Sarasota County waters, west to the Gulf of Mexico, and east into protected rivers and estuaries. Key navigation advantages from this location include: - Direct access to the main shipping channel without extended no-wake zones - Proximity to the Gulf via Egmont Channel - Calm inshore routes ideal for day cruising and entertaining - Easy connections to waterfront dining, beaches, and barrier islands This balance of open water and protected passages allows for year-round boating with minimal repositioning. ![Couple having breakfast on a luxury yacht docked at a marina with waterfront buildings behind.](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/marina-pointe-enjoying-breakfast-on-luxury-yacht-02112026.webp) ### Day Trip Destinations by Boat from Marina Pointe Several of Tampa Bay’s most recognizable boating destinations are comfortably reachable within a half-day round trip. #### Egmont Key Located at the mouth of Tampa Bay, Egmont Key offers clear water, historic ruins, and secluded beaches. It is a popular anchoring destination for swimming and snorkeling, particularly in calmer weather windows. #### **Beer Can Island and Passage Key** North of Egmont, these sandbar destinations attract boaters looking for shallow-water lounging, social anchoring, and sunset views. They are best visited during favorable tides and weather conditions. #### Downtown St. Petersburg Waterfront A direct cruise across the Bay brings boaters to St. Petersburg’s marina network, museums, and waterfront dining. This route is well-suited for day-to-evening itineraries that combine boating with onshore culture. ![Couple walking hand in hand through shallow water along a sandy beach shoreline.](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/marina-pointe-couple-walking-along-shallow-beach-02112026.webp) ### Sandbars, Islands, and Protected Coves Beyond headline destinations, Tampa Bay offers quieter pockets that reward local knowledge. These lesser-known routes and anchorages tend to be favored by local boaters looking beyond peak destinations. - Longboat Pass and nearby coves provide protected waters for relaxed anchoring - Terra Ceia Bay delivers a more natural, less trafficked experience with wildlife viewing - The Little Manatee River offers a scenic inland route ideal for slower cruising These locations are especially appealing for owners who value privacy and variety over high-traffic boating scenes. ![Couple sitting on a yacht swim platform with feet in the water near a palm-lined pier.](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/marina-pointe-yacht-swim-platform-02112026.webp) ### Suggested Itineraries by Boating Style #### For the Social Cruiser - Mid-morning departure from Marina Pointe - Midday anchoring at Beer Can Island - Sunset return along the shipping channel #### For the Leisure Explorer - Late morning cruise to Egmont Key - Afternoon swimming and shoreline walks - Early evening return before dusk #### For the Weekend Boater - Southbound route toward Sarasota - Overnight marina stop or extended day cruise - Return via inshore waters Each itinerary benefits from Marina Pointe’s immediate access to open water, reducing transit time and maximizing time spent at destination. ### Seasonal Considerations and Safety Boating in Tampa Bay is viable year-round, though seasonal awareness is essential. Protected routes closer to shore allow for flexibility during seasonal shifts. - Summer brings calm mornings and afternoon storms, early departures are recommended - Winter offers cooler temperatures and excellent visibility, with occasional cold fronts - Spring and fall provide ideal cruising conditions with lighter traffic Boaters should remain mindful of tidal changes, marked channels, and manatee zones, particularly in shallower areas. ![Luxury yachts docked at a marina with modern waterfront condominium towers in the background.](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/marina-pointe-luxury-waterfront-condominiums-02112026.webp) ### A Waterfront Advantage at Marina Pointe Boating from [Marina Pointe](/residences/ "Marinapointe Waterfront Residences") is not an occasional luxury, it is part of everyday life. Set on a private peninsula with direct marina access and deepwater slips, the community is designed around movement on the water, whether that means a spontaneous afternoon cruise or a longer day exploring Tampa Bay’s inshore and Gulf routes. Luna at Marina Pointe represents the newest waterfront residences within this setting, offering homes that place residents directly within the boating lifestyle outlined throughout this guide. With expansive Bay views, proximity to the marina, and walkable access to the district’s waterfront experiences, Luna reflects the same ease, access, and connection to the water that define life on the peninsula, with residences currently priced from the $1.5 millions. To learn more about available residences at Luna at Marina Pointe and the waterfront lifestyle they support, schedule a private appointment, visit MarinaPointe.com, or contact the Luna at [Marina Pointe](/ "Waterfront Residences at Marinapointe") sales team at [(813) 930-9800](tel:+18139309800 "Phone call"). **Categories:** Blog, Press Releases --- ### [Best Luxury Waterfront Condos in Tampa: Why Westshore Marina District Leads the Market](https://marinapointe.com/best-luxury-waterfront-condos-in-tampa-why-westshore-marina-district-leads-the-market/) **Published:** March 3, 2026 **Author:** Phillip **Content:** ![David Moore Director of Sales](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/marina-pointe-headshot-david-030326.webp) By David Moore, Director of Sales, Marina Pointe Buyers searching for the best luxury waterfront condos in Tampa are ultimately evaluating one question: Is the water simply visible, or is it integrated into daily life? In Tampa, the district that most directly answers that question is [Westshore Marina District.](/the-district-2/ "Waterfront Dining, Retail & Lifestyle in St. Petersburg") Before comparing Downtown Tampa, Water Street, Bayshore Boulevard, or Hyde Park, it is important to begin with the district that most directly answers that question: Westshore Marina District. A private buyer consideration is currently available for purchasers entering during Luna’s early preconstruction phase, reinforcing the advantage of early alignment. For disciplined waterfront buyers, timing is rarely impulsive. It is structural. When preconstruction waterfront ownership begins at $1 million on a private peninsula directly on Tampa Bay, early positioning carries measurable long-term advantage. Not all waterfront in Tampa is created equal. The Westshore Marina District stands as one of Tampa Bay’s most structurally defensible waterfront environments, defined by direct frontage, integrated marina access, and finite peninsula geography. ### Why Westshore Marina District Should Be Evaluated First Westshore Marina District combines five structural characteristics rarely found together within Tampa waterfront real estate: - Direct Tampa Bay frontage - Integrated deepwater marina access - Private peninsula geography that limits future density - Lock-and-leave condominium ownership - Approximately ten-minute access to Tampa International Airport This configuration establishes Westshore as a marina-forward residential environment rather than a vertical urban tower with water views. [Luna at Marina Pointe](/residences/ "Luxury Waterfront Condos in St. Petersburg") residences are oriented toward open horizons and active marina movement. Floor-to-ceiling glass and expansive terraces frame the bay as part of the daily experience, not as a distant amenity. Daily life here is shaped less by traffic patterns and more by water movement. Morning light stretches across the bay, marina activity becomes part of the visual rhythm, and sunset-facing terraces extend living space toward open horizon lines. The setting functions not as backdrop, but as a constant presence. Preconstruction pricing at Luna begins at $1 million. In comparison, completed luxury condominiums in Downtown Tampa frequently trade between $1,200 and $1,600 per square foot, resulting in a starting price of $2 million to $3 million, based on recent MLS summaries. For buyers evaluating replacement cost, scarcity of bayfront land, and long-term defensibility, this alignment is not incidental, it is decisive. ![Map of Tampa Bay highlighting St. Petersburg and marina location.](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/marina-pointe-location-map-blog031026.webp) ### How Does Westshore Compare to Downtown Tampa and Water Street? Downtown Tampa and Water Street deliver: - Walkable density - Restaurant and hospitality concentration - Event-driven environments - Elevated skyline views They also reflect higher per-square-foot pricing in many completed towers. What they typically do not provide is integrated private marina infrastructure within a controlled peninsula setting. Water may be present. Marina-forward living is not inherently embedded. By contrast, Westshore Marina District presents: - Operational deepwater marina and protected yacht basin - Controlled entry and reduced through-traffic - Open bay orientation rather than urban corridors - A composed residential cadence rather than entertainment intensity - A composed residential cadence rather than entertainment intensity For buyers who travel frequently, maintain multiple residences, or value privacy over proximity to nightlife, the distinction is meaningful. ### How Does Westshore Compare to Bayshore Boulevard and South Tampa Waterfront Estates? Luxury single-family estates along Bayshore and South Tampa commonly exceed $5 million based on public records over the past two years. They offer direct lot ownership and architectural scale, but they also require: - Seawall and dock oversight - Storm preparation - Landscaping and exterior maintenance - Continuous property management For many high-net-worth buyers, particularly those balancing business obligations and seasonal living, operational simplicity becomes a determining factor. Luna at Marina Pointe offers: - Direct frontage on [Tampa Bay](/tampa-bay/ "Waterfront Location in St. Petersburg") - Immediate adjacency to an operational marina - Concierge-supported services - Lock-and-leave efficiency It delivers waterfront scale without estate-level maintenance exposure. ### Is Hyde Park a Waterfront Alternative? Hyde Park is frequently included in searches for South Tampa luxury living. It offers historic character, walkability, and retail access. It does not offer direct Tampa Bay frontage or integrated marina access. Buyers prioritizing open water, boating access, and horizon-facing orientation typically narrow their search toward peninsula environments such as Westshore Marina District. **Why Westshore Marina District Is Emerging as Tampa’s Most Strategic Waterfront Address** Westshore Marina District is not speculative, it is established. The district already includes: - A completed and sold-out first residential tower - A fully [operational](https://marinapointe.com/the-marina/ "Private Boat Slips & Waterfront Access in St. Petersburg") deepwater marina - Active waterfront promenades - Marina Landings Town Center - Immediate connectivity to Tampa’s airport and business corridor Luna represents the next phase within a functioning, lived-in waterfront community. Peninsula sites along Tampa Bay are finite. Entitlement complexity and environmental regulation limit replication of marina-integrated projects. As executive relocation and population growth continue across Tampa Bay, controlled waterfront supply becomes increasingly relevant. Within this context, Westshore is not simply another waterfront option. It is structurally differentiated. ![Collage of marina sunset, waterfront dining, and luxury condo tower.](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/marina-pointe-waterfront-lifestyle-collage-030326.webp) ### What Makes Luna at Marina Pointe Distinct Among Tampa Waterfront Condos? Luna offers preconstruction condominiums directly on Tampa Bay within a private, gated peninsula setting. Key distinctions include: - Preconstruction waterfront ownership starting at $1 million - Integrated marina-forward lifestyle - Expansive floor-to-ceiling glass framing open water - Resort-level amenities and concierge services - Architectural continuity validated by a completed and sold-out first tower Buyers are not underwriting a concept. They are selecting a proven waterfront address with operational marina infrastructure and established residential presence. Early entry provides: - Preferred view orientation - Broader floorplan selection - Pricing advantages ahead of future phases - Access to current buyer considerations in the Luna Sales Gallery For those researching luxury waterfront condos in Tampa, condos on Tampa Bay, or preconstruction waterfront condos in Tampa, Luna represents one of the few remaining opportunities to secure new-construction marina-adjacent positioning at this stage of the cycle. ![Glass condo towers with balconies overlooking a marina and yachts.](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/marina-pointe-residences-marina-view-03032.webp) ### Frequently Asked Questions #### What is the best luxury waterfront neighborhood in Tampa for condominiums? For buyers prioritizing direct Tampa Bay frontage, marina integration, and controlled peninsula density, Westshore Marina District currently represents one of the most strategically positioned waterfront environments in Tampa. #### Are there preconstruction waterfront condos in Tampa starting at $1 million? Yes. Luna at Marina Pointe offers preconstruction waterfront residences starting at $1 million within a private peninsula setting directly on Tampa Bay. #### Is Westshore better than Downtown Tampa for waterfront living? Downtown offers urban vibrancy and skyline views. Westshore offers marina-forward integration, open bay orientation, and a more private residential cadence. #### Is marina access important for long-term value? The best waterfront condos in Tampa are not determined by branding or momentum. They are defined by structural fundamentals: - True bay frontage - Scarcity of supply - Marina integration - Replacement cost alignment - Geographic defensibility By these measures, Westshore Marina District leads the market conversation. Experiencing the peninsula setting in person clarifies the distinction immediately. Private appointments are now being scheduled to review positioning, availability, and the current buyer opportunities at Luna at Marina Pointe.

When portfolios are performing well and assets feel productive, the instinct is often to stay put, allow momentum to continue, and defer major decisions until conditions feel more definitive. For many high-net-worth buyers evaluating Florida waterfront real estate, that hesitation is understandable. Waterfront homes are not impulse purchases; they are long-horizon decisions shaped by lifestyle priorities, timing, and long-term positioning. ### FOR BUYERS EVALUATING LUNA MARINA POINTE’S TIMING THOUGHTFULLY, THIS SPRING REPRESENTS A DEFINED MOMENT TO ENGAGE—WHILE EARLY SELECTION REMAINS AVAILABLE AND A LIMITED EARLY-COMMITMENT CONSIDERATION, VALUED AT $10,000, IS BEING EXTENDED IN RECOGNITION OF DECISIVE PURCHASES MADE AT THIS STAGE OF THE CYCLE. Yet history shows that the most successful waterfront decisions are rarely made at the end of the development timeline—when everything is obvious, fully realized, and broadly pursued. They are made earlier, at moments when vision, timing, and discipline intersect. In Tampa Bay, [Marina Pointe](/ "Marina Pointe Apartments | Waterfront Living in Marina del Rey") offers a clear example of how that dynamic plays out. ![Aerial view of boats docked in a modern marina with calm water](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/marina-pointe-boats-02032026.webp) ### Understanding the Cycle Behind Waterfront Ownership [Waterfront](/the-marina/ "The Marina – Private Deepwater Marina at Marina Pointe, Tampa Bay") real estate operates differently from most asset classes. It is finite by nature, slow to replicate, and shaped more by long-term migration, lifestyle shifts, and infrastructure investment than by short-term market noise. In Florida—and particularly along Tampa Bay—those fundamentals have only strengthened. Demand from Northeast and Midwest buyers continues to grow, driven by evolving lifestyle priorities, tax considerations, and a broader reassessment of where—and how—people plan to live over the next decade. What distinguishes experienced buyers in this environment is not speed, but timing. They understand that early points in a development cycle—before visibility is complete, before pricing recalibrates, and before inventory narrows—tend to offer the greatest combination of choice, positioning, and long-term advantage. ### What the First Buyers at Marina Pointe Understood — and How That Perspective Paid Off [Marina Pointe](/ "Marina Pointe – Luxury Waterfront Apartments in Marina del Rey") has already moved through one full cycle. ![Bar chart showing original sale prices compared to resale prices by floor](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/marina-pointe-appreciation-chart-02032026.webp) When buyers committed to the community’s first residential tower during its pre-construction phase, the marina was not yet active, the district was still emerging, and the broader vision required a degree of foresight. Those early buyers were not reacting to a finished product; they were evaluating fundamentals—location, marina access, the private peninsula setting, and long-term waterfront scarcity. That perspective proved meaningful. From the time those buyers entered into contract to the point of completion and resale, select residences experienced significant gains. One early buyer purchased a **15th** floor residence at pre-construction for **$1,580,922** and resold it approximately three years later for **$2,450,000\***. In a second example, a 16th floor residence originally purchased for **$1,267,436**, was sold in **2025** for **$1,800,000\***. For other early buyers, these gains remain unrealized by choice. They continue to enjoy their residences today—paired with a fully realized waterfront Florida lifestyle that they were able to experience while the marina, promenades, and surrounding district matured around them. Importantly, these outcomes were not driven by speculation. They were the result of disciplined timing, paired with confidence in a location and development vision that has since been fully validated. ![Marina Pointe Waterfront Community](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/marina-pointe-waterfront-towers-along-marina-02032026.webp) ### Luna at Marina Pointe: A Similar Moment in the Cycle Unlike the community’s first tower, Marina Pointe is no longer conceptual. The private marina is fully operational. Waterfront promenades are active. Marina Landings Town Center is open and serving residents daily. The peninsula setting, access points, and residential character of the community are clearly defined and functioning as intended. What remains early is the opportunity within Luna itself. As the second residential tower at Marina Pointe, Luna offers a limited collection of new-construction waterfront [residences](/residences/ "Marina Pointe Waterfront Living – Luxury Condos & Harbour Residences") ranging from approximately 1,100 to over 3,500 square feet, including one-, two-, and three-bedroom layouts as well as a small number of larger-format residences. Pre-construction pricing currently begins at approximately $1 million, positioning Luna favorably relative to both completed waterfront condominiums in Tampa Bay and comparable new-construction offerings across Florida’s major coastal markets. When viewed alongside pricing in markets such as Miami, Palm Beach, Naples, and Sarasota—where new waterfront condominiums often command materially higher entry points—Luna’s pricing reflects a disciplined early-cycle alignment rather than a late-stage premium. For buyers evaluating value not just in absolute terms but in relation to replacement cost, location, and long-term scarcity, this stage of the Luna release offers a compelling point of entry. ![People walking across a palm-lined street in a coastal marina retail area](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/marina-pointe-landing-activityy-02032026.webp) ### The Advantage of an Emerging Waterfront District—With Proof Already in Place Equally important to the residence itself is the context in which it sits. The[ Westshore Marina District](/the-district-2/ "Marina Pointe Westshore Marina District – Dining, Shops & Waterfront Lifestyle") is one of Tampa Bay’s most intentionally planned waterfront environments—defined by marina access, controlled density, and long-term residential orientation rather than short-term activation. Unlike more congested urban waterfront areas, the district has been designed to mature gradually, with infrastructure, amenities, and residential components evolving in parallel. For early buyers, this distinction matters. Emerging waterfront districts with clear planning frameworks and natural boundaries—particularly those anchored by private marinas and peninsula settings—have historically demonstrated strong long-term resilience. As the district matures and surrounding development completes, the value of being positioned early within the residential core becomes increasingly evident. Luna benefits directly from this trajectory. Buyers are not underwriting an untested neighborhood; they are securing a position within a waterfront district that is already active, increasingly established, and continuing to evolve with intention. ![Couple standing on a balcony overlooking a waterfront community](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/marina-pointe-balcony-02032026.webp) ### Why Spring is the Timeline for Buyers Who Think Long-Term For many waterfront buyers, **spring** is when long-term decisions move from abstract to tangible. Time spent in Florida during the season provides clarity—about lifestyle priorities, daily routines, and the role waterfront living may play over the coming years. It is also a moment when capital decisions are revisited with greater perspective, particularly for buyers whose portfolios have performed well and who are evaluating thoughtful ways to rebalance without sacrificing enjoyment or long-term positioning. Within the lifecycle of a pre-construction community, **spring also represents a distinct moment**. Construction planning advances, later-phase pricing frameworks come into view, and early selection remains available—creating a narrow window where choice, positioning, and timing are still aligned. In recognition of this early-cycle moment, **a limited-time consideration** is being extended to buyers who formalize their purchase during this window. Rather than serving as an incentive, it reflects acknowledgment of decisiveness at a point in the development cycle where early commitments continue to shape long-term outcomes. For buyers who think in cycles rather than seasons, **this spring at Luna at Marina Pointe** offers a rare convergence: a proven waterfront community, an emerging district with visible momentum, and an opportunity to engage early—before the next phase begins. If you’d like, I can also create a **slightly tighter luxury editorial version** (about 15–20% shorter), which tends to perform better for brochures and email campaigns. ![Yachts docked in a marina with modern residential towers in background](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/marina-pointe-luxury-waterfront-residences-02032026.webp) ### A Moment to Act with Perspective Private appointments are now being scheduled at the Marina Pointe sales gallery for buyers seeking to explore Luna at this early point in its release. An on-site visit provides the opportunity to experience the fully realized waterfront environment firsthand, review historical performance from Marina Pointe’s first residential tower, and understand how Luna is positioned within the broader evolution of the [Westshore Marina District](/the-district-2/ "Marina Pointe District Waterfront Shops, Dining & Lifestyle in Tampa"). To learn more or to schedule a private appointment, visit [MarinaPointe.com](/ "Marina Pointe | Premium Apartments on the Marina") or contact the Luna at Marina Pointe sales team at [(813) 930-9800](tel:+18139309800 "Phone call"). **Categories:** Blog --- ### [Why Tampa Bay’s Waterfront Is No Longer a Secondary Market](https://marinapointe.com/why-tampa-bays-waterfront-is-no-longer-a-secondary-market/) **Published:** March 5, 2026 **Author:** Phillip **Content:** For years, Florida’s luxury waterfront hierarchy felt fixed. [Tampa Bay](/tampa-bay/ "Marina Pointe Tampa Bay"), while economically strong, was often viewed as adjacent to the premium conversation rather than central to it. That distinction no longer applies. Corporate relocation into Tampa has accelerated across financial services, healthcare, and technology sectors. Airport connectivity rivals larger coastal markets. Infrastructure investment has matured. At the same time, true marina-adjacent residences along Tampa Bay remains inherently limited. When economic growth and constrained waterfront inventory begin to move together, markets recalibrate. On the west shoreline of the bay, that recalibration is becoming visible at Marina Pointe. ### A Private Peninsula Becomes a Market Signal Marina Pointe is a [2025-26 Americas Property Awards Winner](/tampa-bays-marina-pointe-wins-three-americas-property-awards-for-excellence-in-luxury-waterfront-living/ "Marina Pointe Wins Three Americas Property Awards for Luxury Waterfront Living in Tampa Bay") and the sole occupant of a private peninsula in Tampa’s [Westshore Marina District](/the-district-2/ "Waterfront Retail & Dining in Tampa Bay"). Designed around a deepwater marina and a walkable town center, the development introduces true marina-front condominium living within a highly-amenitized setting. The first residential tower overlooking the marina is complete and fully sold out. BTI Partners is now launching Luna at Marina Pointe, the second of three towers, and the center point of the marina landscape. Today, the deepwater marina is active. Retail and dining within the district are open, and the community is receiving rave reviews for its proximity and boating lifestyle. ![Luxury waterfront condominiums with glass balconies overlooking a marina](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/marina_pointe_tampa_waterfront_luxury-01222026.webp) ### The Marina’s Centerpiece — Now Entering the Market [Luna](/residences/ "Luxury Waterfront Condos in Tampa Bay") has entered pre-construction sales. The collection includes one-, two-, and three-bedroom residences, along with a limited number of four-bedroom penthouses. Floorplans range from approximately 1,100 to 3,400 square feet, designed around expansive private terraces overlooking the marina and Tampa Bay. Floor-to-ceiling glass defines the architecture, while ceiling heights enhance spatial clarity. Kitchens feature European-style cabinetry, premium integrated appliances, and stone surfaces. The emphasis is disciplined design with direct water orientation. This early release introduces residences from $1 million — a notable entry point for new-construction, marina-front living within a functioning waterfront district. As Tampa Bay’s broader waterfront gains recognition, that pricing alignment is unlikely to remain static. ### **Designed for Executive Mobility** Tampa’s evolution from secondary market to primary business corridor has been driven in part by Northeast migration. Financial firms, healthcare systems, private equity groups, and technology companies have established operations across the region. For many New York executives, Tampa has become a practical base for combining business pursuits with waterfront living. Geography plays a decisive role. Marina Pointe sits approximately ten minutes from Tampa International Airport, one of the most efficient major airports in the country, with direct connectivity to New York and other primary markets. That proximity allows owners to attend meetings in Manhattan while retaining daily access to Tampa Bay. Luna’s structure reflects that dynamic. The building is designed for maintenance-free ownership with 24-hour staffed lobbies, concierge services, secure parking, and on-site management. Two elevated resort-style pool decks overlook the bay, complemented by spa areas, fire features, and outdoor entertaining spaces. Fitness and wellness facilities include a glass-enclosed movement studio, strength and cardio equipment, steam and sauna rooms, and private treatment spaces. Residents’ lounges, private dining areas, co-working spaces, a theater room, and a virtual golf simulator extend usability beyond the residence itself. [Marina access](/the-marina/ "Private Deepwater Slips in Tampa Bay") remains integrated but flexible. Private slips accommodate select vessels within the protected basin, while nearby facilities offer dry storage and flexible boat club options. Owners can arrive, access the water, and depart without the operational burden associated with single-family estates. ![Couple standing on glass balcony overlooking bay and long bridge](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/marina-pointe-tampa-balcony-03052026.webp) ### A Market Repositioning in Real Time Tampa Bay’s waterfront is no longer peripheral to Florida’s luxury conversation. Corporate migration, airport connectivity, and sustained population growth have altered its trajectory. What remains finite is true marina-adjacent supply along the bay. In addition to Luna, a limited collection of seven [Harbour Homes](/harbour-homes/ "Waterfront Luxury Townhomes in Tampa Bay") — multi-level townhomes positioned directly along the marina promenade — has also been released, with pre-construction pricing from $4 million. The first tower’s sellout established proof of demand. The second tower reflects a market that has moved beyond secondary status. Along Tampa Bay’s west shoreline, repositioning is no longer theoretical. It is measurable.

Yet in recent years, a quieter shift has been underway. As sustained population growth, corporate relocation, and inbound migration reshape Florida’s west coast, Tampa Bay is emerging as one of the country’s most compelling waterfront destinations. Communities such as [Marina Pointe,](/ "Marina Pointe") located within Tampa’s Westshore Marina District, illustrate how this transformation is already taking shape. Set directly along Tampa Bay on a private peninsula, Marina Pointe reflects how demand for true waterfront living is beginning to converge with limited supply, particularly in environments where marina access, walkability, and proximity to major infrastructure already exist. ### A City Defined by the Water The geography of [Tampa Bay](/tampa-bay/ "Marina Pointe Tampa Bay Waterfront Residences & Marina Living") has always shaped the region’s identity. Expansive open water, protected inlets, and miles of navigable coastline have long supported an active boating culture. Sailboats, sport fishing vessels, and cruising yachts move steadily across the bay, connecting marinas, waterfront restaurants, and barrier island destinations along Florida’s Gulf Coast. Unlike many coastal cities where waterfront access is limited or fragmented, Tampa Bay maintains broad visual and physical connection to the water. Long sightlines across the bay, shifting light throughout the day, and the constant presence of marine activity create an environment where the water becomes part of everyday life. Morning paddleboard sessions, sunset boat departures, and evening walks along waterfront promenades are not occasional luxuries here. They are simply part of the rhythm of living on the bay. While the region’s boating culture has existed for decades, Tampa’s broader transformation over the past ten years has elevated its national profile. Corporate relocations, population growth, and continued investment in the city’s infrastructure have expanded Tampa’s economic and cultural reach while preserving the coastal qualities that make waterfront living here distinctive. ![Two people carrying paddleboards along a marina dock](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/marina-pointe-paddleboard-waterfront-lifestyle-03232026.webp) ### The Rise of Marina-Centered Living Across coastal markets, the idea of waterfront living itself is evolving. Buyers are no longer drawn solely to water views; they are seeking environments where the water actively shapes daily routines. [Marina-centered](/the-marina/ "Deepwater Slips & Tampa Bay Boating") communities reflect this shift. Instead of treating the waterfront as scenery, these neighborhoods organize residential life around it. Boat slips, protected yacht basins, waterfront promenades, and pedestrian access to dining and daily conveniences become part of the neighborhood’s structure. The appeal is both practical and emotional. For boating enthusiasts, immediate access to the water transforms a weekend activity into something that can be enjoyed spontaneously. For others, the presence of an active marina reinforces a sense of place, where the movement of boats, the changing horizon, and the calm rhythm of the bay become a constant backdrop. This lifestyle shift has become particularly visible in cities experiencing strong inbound migration. Buyers relocating from the Northeast and Midwest increasingly seek waterfront environments that combine coastal living with access to major airports, business centers, and cultural infrastructure. Tampa Bay sits at the center of that convergence. ### The Role of Growth in Waterfront Demand What is happening in Tampa Bay is not purely lifestyle driven. It is also structural. Over the past several years, the region has experienced sustained population growth, driven by corporate relocation, executive migration, and shifting work patterns that allow more flexibility in where people choose to live. Many of these buyers are arriving from coastal markets where waterfront access is either constrained or priced at significantly higher thresholds. As a result, demand is concentrating in locations that offer both authentic waterfront access and long-term livability. Marina-oriented communities, particularly those with existing infrastructure and direct bay frontage, are becoming increasingly difficult to replicate. In Tampa Bay, the number of sites that can support true waterfront residential development with integrated marina access is inherently limited. As those opportunities are absorbed, the gap between available supply and buyer demand continues to widen. ![Palm-lined street with people walking, cycling, and shopping](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/marina-pointe-palm-lined-street-retail-district-03232026.webp) ### Tampa’s Emerging Waterfront Districts While waterfront homes can be found throughout the Tampa Bay region, the most interesting developments are occurring in districts intentionally designed around marina access and walkable waterfront living. These neighborhoods combine residential architecture with waterfront public space, curated dining, and pedestrian connectivity that allows residents to move through daily routines close to the water. One of the most notable examples is the Westshore Marina District, located along the southern edge of Tampa Bay in South Tampa. Positioned between downtown Tampa and [Tampa International Airport](https://www.tampaairport.com/ "Tampa International Airport | Flights, Parking & Travel Information"), the district occupies a rare peninsula setting where open water, marina activity, and residential life converge. Waterfront promenades trace the edge of the bay. Restaurants and cafés are positioned within walking distance of residential buildings. A protected deepwater marina provides direct access to Tampa Bay and the Gulf beyond. Unlike high-density urban waterfronts, the district maintains a quieter residential character shaped by its relationship to the marina and the natural boundaries of the peninsula. For many residents, this balance between proximity and retreat defines the appeal. Downtown Tampa’s cultural venues, sports arenas, and business centers remain minutes away, yet daily life unfolds in an environment defined by open horizons and the presence of the water ![Aerial view of luxury pool deck with marina and palm trees](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/marina-pointe-pool-deck-amenities-aerial-03232026.webp) ### Where the Waterfront Becomes Daily Life Within the Westshore Marina District, Marina Pointe represents one of the most fully realized examples of marina-forward waterfront living in Tampa Bay. The community was designed around a simple idea: that architecture, daily routines, and the waterfront should feel seamlessly connected. Positioned directly on Tampa Bay and anchored by a private deepwater marina, Marina Pointe allows residents to experience the bay not as a distant view but as a constant presence. The development’s first residential tower has already been completed and sold out, demonstrating both the appeal of the location and the demand for marina-oriented waterfront living. The next phase of the community is [Luna at Marina Pointe](/ "Link Text Luna at Marina Pointe"), the second residential tower now selling in preconstruction. Designed to build upon the success of the original tower, Luna continues the architectural approach that defines the community, expansive glass walls, generous waterfront terraces, and interior spaces oriented toward wide views of Tampa Bay and the marina basin. Beyond the residences themselves, the community supports a lifestyle shaped by the water. [Resort-style](/amenities/ "Marina Pointe Amenities | Waterfront Pools, Fitness & Luxury Living") pools overlooking the bay, wellness spaces, waterfront walking paths, and social gathering areas encourage residents to spend time outdoors and remain connected to the surrounding environment. The result is a setting where boating, waterfront walking, and open-air living naturally shape the cadence of daily life. ![Modern condos with balconies overlooking a marina with boats](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/marina-pointe-waterfront-residences-marina-view-03232026.webp) ### Why Buyers Are Paying Attention According to Luna Brown, Sales Advisor with Premier Sotheby’s International Realty, interest in marina-oriented communities has grown steadily as Tampa Bay gains national visibility. “Many of our buyers are relocating from markets where true waterfront access has become increasingly difficult to find,” Brown explains. “What makes Tampa Bay compelling is the authenticity of the waterfront experience. The marinas are active, the bay is part of daily life, and the city itself continues to grow around that foundation.” That dynamic is particularly appealing to buyers who travel frequently or maintain multiple residences. Tampa International Airport, consistently ranked among the country’s most efficient airports, sits just minutes from the [Westshore Marina District](/the-district-2/ "Dining, Shops & Waterfront Living at Marina Pointe"), allowing residents to arrive, settle into their waterfront residence, and return to life on the bay with remarkable ease. For early buyers, Luna at Marina Pointe represents a distinct moment within that broader market shift. As one of the few remaining opportunities to secure new-construction waterfront ownership directly on Tampa Bay, the preconstruction phase offers access at a point in the development cycle where pricing, selection, and long-term positioning are still aligned. With ownership beginning around the $1 million range, the offering reflects an early entry into a waterfront environment that is already functioning, established, and increasingly difficult to replicate. As construction progresses and remaining inventory narrows, that positioning is expected to evolve alongside both demand and replacement cost. ![Couple boarding a yacht at a sunny marina with modern condos](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/marina-pointe-luxury-yacht-lifestyle-couple-03232026.webp) ### The Future of Waterfront Living in Tampa Bay As Tampa Bay continues to grow, its relationship with the water will remain central to the region’s identity. Unlike many coastal cities where the waterfront has been fully built out, Tampa still has the ability to shape new residential environments that respect the scale and rhythm of the bay itself. Marina-forward communities, thoughtfully planned waterfront districts, and residential architecture designed around open horizons are all part of that evolution. For buyers and residents alike, the appeal of Tampa Bay is increasingly clear. The region offers the lifestyle qualities associated with established coastal destinations while maintaining a sense of openness and authenticity that is difficult to replicate elsewhere. In a place where the marina, the horizon, and the movement of the bay remain part of everyday life, waterfront living becomes more than a view. It becomes the way the city is experienced. For those evaluating where to live on the water in Tampa Bay, Marina Pointe offers a rare opportunity to experience this lifestyle firsthand.

The terms “waterfront” and “water view” are often used interchangeably, but for buyers evaluating quality and positioning, the difference is significant. At Marina Pointe, and within Luna, that distinction is clear. Set on a private peninsula with direct adjacency to Tampa Bay and an [active deepwater marina](/the-marina/ "Marina Pointe Private Marina | Tampa Bay Boating & Waterfront Access"), the community provides a clear reference for what true waterfront living represents. ### What “Water View” Actually Means in Practice A water view property offers visibility to water, often from select rooms or upper floors and frequently across other structures or development. While the view can be appealing, it is dependent on elevation, angle, and surrounding density. In these environments, buildings compete for sightlines, and future development can alter the experience. The water remains visual, not integrated into how the residence functions. ### What Defines Waterfront Waterfront is defined by direct relationship and uninterrupted proximity. At [Marina Pointe](/the-towers/ "Marina Pointe Luxury Towers | Waterfront Residences in Tampa Bay"), residences sit along Tampa Bay and the marina basin with no separation by roads or intervening structures. Views are consistent and unobstructed, and the water becomes part of the living environment rather than a distant feature. At Luna, this relationship is further refined. Residences align directly with the bay and marina, with expansive terraces and, in select three-bedroom layouts, more than 2,000 square feet designed to maximize waterfront exposure. The marina is not an adjacent amenity. It is embedded in the setting, visible and accessible as part of daily life. ![Couple with drinks on balcony overlooking calm waterfront and pier](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/marina-pointe-balcony-couple-waterfront.webp) ### Why the Distinction Matters For buyers, the difference affects both daily experience and long-term positioning. True waterfront establishes consistency. Views are not dependent on future development, and the relationship to the water remains stable over time. From a market perspective, properties with direct bay frontage and marina integration occupy a limited category. As available sites narrow, access to this type of positioning becomes increasingly constrained. “Buyers often assume a water view delivers the same experience as being on the water, but the distinction becomes clear in how the residence functions over time,” said Dominic Pickering, Executive Director, West Coast of Florida at BTI Partners. “Opportunities where the residence, marina, and open bay are fully integrated are limited, and they tend to become more difficult to access as the market evolves.” Marina Pointe’s private peninsula setting adds an additional layer of control, limiting future density and preserving the character of the waterfront environment. ![Man relaxing on yacht with drink overlooking marina and buildings](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/marina-pointe-lifistyle-04102026.webp) ### Where Location Reinforces Lifestyle – The West Shore Marina District What happens beyond the residence is part of the appeal. At Marina Pointe, that extends directly into the [Westshore Marina District](/the-district-2/ "Westshore Marina District | Dining, Retail & Waterfront Living in Tampa Bay")—a waterfront neighborhood that offers a level of activity that complements the waterfront without competing with it. You can start your morning with coffee and a walk along the marina, watching boats move in and out before the day picks up. Grab a casual breakfast at Palio’s or meet friends later in the day at Salt Shack, where everything opens out to the water and sunsets tend to turn into longer evenings than planned. Dinner doesn’t require leaving the neighborhood. Newer spots like Rio Izakaya bring something more refined into the mix, while the waterfront setting keeps everything relaxed and easy. It’s the kind of place where your day can stay local—moving from the marina to coffee, to a walk, to dinner—without ever feeling like you need to get in the car. ### Why Luna Stands Apart Right Now Luna represents something increasingly rare: new waterfront construction within a community that is already fully realized and in motion. It’s not just that the lifestyle exists—it’s visible, active, and established the moment you arrive. The marina is active. Boats are moving in and out. Residents are here—walking the waterfront, heading out for the day, settling back in as the sun drops. Nothing about it feels staged or waiting to happen. This isn’t a future version of waterfront living. It’s already in motion. And with a limited number of true waterfront sites remaining in Tampa Bay, opportunities like this don’t expand—they narrow. ![kitchen, interior, dining, modern, sunset, windows, waterfront, cityscape, furniture, luxury](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/marina-pointe-modern-kitche-sunset-view-041026.webp) ### Living on the Water, Your Way Living at Marina Pointe isn’t just about being on the water—it’s about how easily you can use it. For some, that means keeping a boat in the marina, stepping out in the morning and heading straight into the bay. For others, it’s the flexibility of nearby dry storage at Port 32, where your boat is ready when you arrive and taken care of when you’re away. And for those who prefer variety, memberships like the Gulfstream Boat Club make it just as easy—different boats, different days, no ownership responsibilities. There’s no single way to do it. That’s what makes it work. You can spend a full day out on the water, or just an hour before dinner. You can plan weekends around it, or let it be something you decide in the moment. Over time, that kind of access starts to change things. Your schedule loosens. Your time opens up. Florida stops feeling like a place you visit—and starts feeling like a place you actually live. ### Explore Luna at Marina Pointe Luna, the second tower at Marina Pointe, is now selling luxury pre-construction condominiums in this emerging lifestyle center. Positioned along the edge of the peninsula, Luna captures wide, uninterrupted views across Tampa Bay and the marina, with residences oriented outward toward the water rather than inward toward the building. The collection of waterfront residences includes a range of thoughtfully designed [floorplans](/the-towers/tower-ii/ "Tower II at Marina Pointe | New Luxury Waterfront Condos in Tampa Bay"), from expansive two-bedroom residences to larger three-bedroom layouts, many exceeding 2,000 square feet. Each residence is structured to maximize its relationship to the water, with primary living spaces and terraces positioned outward toward the bay, not inward toward the building. Floor-to-ceiling glass and deep, livable terraces extend the interiors outward, creating a continuous connection between inside and out. In many residences, the terrace becomes a true outdoor living space—large enough for dining, lounging, and spending extended time overlooking the marina and open water. Kitchens are designed as central gathering spaces rather than secondary rooms, with integrated appliances, clean-lined cabinetry, and oversized islands that anchor the living area. Primary suites are positioned for privacy and views, often waking directly to the water, with spacious bathrooms and walk-in closets that reflect a more residential scale. [Amenities](/amenities/ "Marina Pointe Amenities | Resort-Style Living on Tampa Bay") are designed to extend the waterfront experience rather than compete with it. A resort-style pool deck overlooks the bay, with lounge areas positioned to follow the sun throughout the day. A private fitness center, resident lounge, and social spaces are designed for both everyday use and casual gathering, while maintaining a sense of calm and separation from busier environments. As the community progresses, availability continues to narrow and pre-construction opportunities become more limited. The Sales Gallery is open daily for walk-ins, or by private appointment for a more detailed review of current residences, pricing, and view orientations.

In spring, mornings begin along the Riverwalk, where the water moves steadily beside a mix of runners, walkers, and early coffee stops. By midday, that rhythm builds. Tables fill at waterfront restaurants, boats pass through the channel, and the city settles into a pattern that feels active without being hurried. What starts as a way to spend a day often becomes routine. The Riverwalk is not defined by a single destination, but by how seamlessly it connects the waterfront experience. From the open-air energy of Sparkman Wharf to the quieter stretches near the Tampa Museum of Art, each point along the path feels tied together by proximity to the water. Lunch extends naturally into the afternoon, and a walk along the river often becomes dinner at Ulele, without much planning required. ### From the Riverwalk to Tampa’s Waterfront What becomes clear over time is how easily this experience could move from occasional to routine, and how Tampa waterfront living begins to feel less like a visit and more like a way of living. Just minutes away, along the southern edge of Tampa Bay in South Tampa’s [Westshore Marina District](https://marinapointe.com/the-district-2/ "Discover the district"), Luna at Marina Pointe introduces a more composed waterfront setting. Positioned directly along the bay, the tower is designed to capture light, openness, and uninterrupted views, with residences that extend outward through expansive terraces and floor-to-ceiling glass. As the next residential tower within Marina Pointe, [Luna](https://marinapointe.com/residences/ "Learn more about the residences.") builds on an environment that is already established, where the first residences are complete, the marina is active, and the surrounding district is functioning day to day. The energy of the Riverwalk remains close, accessible for an evening out or a day in the city, but it no longer defines the entire experience. That contrast reframes the waterfront experience. Living near the waterfront does not require being in the center of it. The experience becomes more complete with a degree of separation, where access to the city is balanced by a more private, residential environment. Unlike waterfront locations shaped by density or proximity alone, Marina Pointe’s private peninsula setting limits future development and preserves both views and residential character over time. ![Modern condos with balconies overlooking a marina with boats](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/marina-pointe-waterfront-residences-marina-view-03232026.webp) ### A More Composed Approach to Waterfront Living in Tampa At Marina Pointe, that balance is built into the setting. Residences are oriented toward the bay and marina, with floor-to-ceiling glass and expansive terraces that extend living spaces outward. Living spaces and primary bedrooms are positioned to capture wide, uninterrupted views of Tampa Bay and the marina basin. The water is not a backdrop, but a constant presence, visible throughout the day as light shifts across the horizon and boats move through the basin. Within the Westshore Marina District, the environment is defined by [a marina-forward](https://marinapointe.com/the-marina/ "Learn more about the Marina.") residential environment rather than density or through-traffic.The pace is quieter, defined less by activity and more by the consistency of the waterfront itself. For those who have spent time along [Tampa’s](https://marinapointe.com/tampa-bay/ "Discover the Tampa Bay Area.") waterfront, the transition feels natural. As one Marina Pointe sales advisor explains, many visitors arrive having already experienced the Riverwalk, waterfront dining, and the broader rhythm of Tampa Bay. What changes is the realization that it does not need to be limited to a visit, it can become part of daily life, with more privacy and less friction. At Marina Pointe, that shift is already visible, in the daily movement of boats through the marina, the presence of completed residences, and a waterfront district that continues to evolve with intention. ![Collage of waterfront lifestyle with dining, walking, and marina views](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/marina-pointe-tampa-bay-lifestyle-collage-042426.webp) ### When a Visit to Tampa Bay Starts to Feel Less Temporary That realization tends to happen toward the end of a stay, when the experience no longer feels new, but repeatable. An afternoon along the Riverwalk, dinner overlooking the water, and a return home that feels separate from the activity, yet still connected to it. For many spending time in Tampa Bay this season, the appeal is immediate. The pace, the climate, and the access to the water settle in quickly. What shifts is how long it feels sustainable. What begins as a short-term visit starts to feel like something that could extend further, not as a departure from daily life, but as a version of it that feels more aligned. In Tampa Bay, that shift is rarely driven by a single moment. It builds gradually, shaped by time spent near the water and the realization that the waterfront experience along the Riverwalk can extend beyond it. For those beginning to consider what that next step might look like, the Marina Pointe sales gallery offers an opportunity to experience the setting more directly.Located at 4900 Bridge Street in Tampa, the on-site team provides current availability, floorplans, and a deeper look at how this waterfront environment translates into daily living. Appointments can be scheduled at [(813) 930-9800](tel:+18139309800 "Phone call") or through [MarinaPointe.com.](https://marinapointe.com/ "Marina Pointe home page") **Categories:** Blog --- ### [When to Buy a Waterfront Condo in Tampa Bay](https://marinapointe.com/when-to-buy-a-waterfront-condo-in-tampa-bay/) **Published:** April 29, 2026 **Author:** Phillip **Content:** The best time to buy a waterfront condo in Tampa is during the phase when pricing and selection remain favorable, but the community itself can already be evaluated in real terms. That is where the market sits today. In a category defined by limited inventory and long development timelines, timing is less about external market conditions and more about entry point within a specific property. For buyers currently visiting Tampa, touring residences, and narrowing decisions, that distinction is becoming clearer. ### A Market That Can Be Evaluated in Real Time The Tampa waterfront market is no longer something buyers need to interpret from plans or projections. At [Marina Pointe](https://marinapointe.com/ "Marina Pointe homepage"), within the [Westshore Marina District](https://marinapointe.com/faq/ "Frequently asked questions."), the environment is already in place. The first residential tower is complete and sold out. The marina is active. The waterfront setting, views, and daily activity can be assessed directly. For buyers who have spent time researching remotely, this changes the decision process. What was once theoretical can now be confirmed through firsthand evaluation, from sightlines to orientation to how the property functions day to day. ![Couple walking along marina dock with boats](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/marina-couple-boardwalk-blog-042826.webp) ### A Narrow Window Between Early Pricing and Full Maturity In most waterfront developments, buyers choose between early pricing with limited context or full visibility after pricing and availability have shifted. Early phases offer better pricing and broader selection, but limited context. Completed projects provide certainty, but pricing and availability have already shifted. What distinguishes the current phase at Marina Pointe is the overlap of those conditions. Luna, the [next residential tower](https://marinapointe.com/faq/ "Frequently asked questions about Marina Pointe."), is being introduced within an established setting. Buyers can walk the property, understand positioning, and access the waterfront environment while still accessing preconstruction pricing and a wider range of available residences. That alignment is temporary and tied directly to the project’s current stage. ### Why Entry Point Matters in Waterfront Real Estate Waterfront opportunities with direct bay frontage and marina access are inherently limited. As projects advance, pricing adjusts and options narrow. The decision is not simply whether to buy, but where to enter. At Marina Pointe, buyers considering Luna still have access to preconstruction pricing and current availability across multiple [floorplans](https://marinapointe.com/the-towers/tower-ii/ "view floorplans"). The first tower’s sellout has already demonstrated demand, giving buyers clearer context as they evaluate the opportunity. ![sunsetting over the horizon at Marina Pointe](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/marina-pointe-terrace-sunset.webp) ### What Buyers Are Doing Right Now Many buyers arriving in Tampa this season are not beginning their search. They are refining it. Research has already been done. The focus now is on confirming what aligns, from views and layout to how the residence will be used over time. The ability to walk the property, observe activity on the water, and understand the surrounding district has become central to that process. Decisions are being made based on direct evaluation rather than assumption. ![Couple Relaxing on Yacht Overlooking Water](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/marina-couple-yacht-blog-042826.webp) ### When to Buy a Waterfront Condo in Tampa Bay In a supply-constrained waterfront market, timing is best understood as positioning. The question is not whether Tampa Bay supports long-term demand. It is whether to secure a residence before pricing and availability shift as development progresses. At Marina Pointe, that position is still available. The setting is established, the next phase is active, and buyers can review the opportunity with a level of clarity that is not typically available at this stage. ### Explore Marina Pointe For those evaluating waterfront ownership in Tampa Bay, the most effective way to understand this moment is to experience it directly. The Marina Pointe Sales Gallery is open daily offering the opportunity to review availability, explore floorplans, and walk the [waterfront setting](https://marinapointe.com/the-marina/ "More about the Marina.") firsthand.

The buzz we’ve garnered from local media is a flattering sign of our momentum, and we would like to highlight a few of our favorite mentions.   **Content:** ![Lady Coral Rendering](/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/Untitled-design-12-e1645643373996-768x478.jpg) As our deepwater marina begins to take shape, businesses start to flourish in Marina Landings Town Center, and construction of Tower One nears completion with owners due to move in this year, it’s hard to miss the incredible progress we’ve made. The buzz we’ve garnered from local media is a flattering sign of our momentum, and we would like to highlight a few of our favorite mentions. The most recent recognition came from a behind-the-scenes tour with BTI Partners’ Dominic Pickering. Pickering shared what future residents can expect from Marina Pointe upon completion later this year. He talked about the vast amenities and our benefit to the growing Tampa Bay community.

Tampa Bay, while economically strong, was often viewed as adjacent to the premium conversation rather than central to it. That distinction no longer applies. Corporate relocation into Tampa has accelerated across financial services, healthcare, and technology sectors. Airport connectivity rivals larger coastal markets. Infrastructure investment has matured. At the same time, true marina-adjacent residences along Tampa Bay remains inherently limited. When economic growth and constrained waterfront inventory begin to move together, markets recalibrate. On the west shoreline of the bay, that recalibration is becoming visible at Marina Pointe. ### A Private Peninsula Becomes a Market Signal Marina Pointe is a 2025-26 Americas Property Awards Winner and the sole occupant of a private peninsula in Tampa’s Westshore Marina District. Designed around a deepwater marina and a walkable town center, the development introduces true marina-front condominium living within a highly-amenitized setting. The first residential tower overlooking the marina is complete and fully sold out. BTI Partners is now launching Luna at Marina Pointe, the second of three towers, and the center point of the marina landscape. Today, the deepwater marina is active. Retail and dining within the district are open, and the community is receiving rave reviews for its proximity and boating lifestyle. ### The Marina’s Centerpiece — Now Entering the Market Luna has entered pre-construction sales. The collection includes one-, two-, and three-bedroom residences, along with a limited number of four-bedroom penthouses. Floorplans range from approximately 1,100 to 3,400 square feet, designed around expansive private terraces overlooking the marina and Tampa Bay. Floor-to-ceiling glass defines the architecture, while ceiling heights enhance spatial clarity. Kitchens feature European-style cabinetry, premium integrated appliances, and stone surfaces. The emphasis is disciplined design with direct water orientation. **Categories:** Blog --- ### [The Best Fall Activities in Tampa Bay](https://marinapointe.com/fall-activities-in-tampa-bay/) **Published:** October 12, 2022 **Author:** Phillip **Excerpt:** If you’re looking for ways to take advantage of the season change and enjoy fall activities the Tampa Bay way, look no further! **Content:** ![Tampa Bay Fall Activites](/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/GettyImages-536458693-768x801.jpg) While the weather in Tampa Bay is beautiful this time of year and could easily be mistaken for a beautiful summer day, you can still catch a glimmer of autumn in our pearly white sand; a pleasant gust floats off the ocean and wafts the scent of pumpkin spice lattes as they’re churned out from every nearby coffee shop; friends enjoy food and wine at outdoor festivals and families shop for pumpkins after a day picnicking on the beach.

For today’s sophisticated waterfront buyer, value is no longer defined by view alone, but by whether a residence offers direct, controlled access to the water itself. In [Tampa Bay](/tampa-bay/ "Luxury Waterfront Living & Lifestyle"), Luna at Marina Pointe has emerged as a clear reference point for this shift, illustrating how marina-integrated living is being evaluated, priced, and secured early by buyers who understand long-term scarcity. Located on a private peninsula within the [Westshore Marina District](/the-district-2/ "Waterfront Living, Shops & Dining in Tampa Bay"), Luna builds upon an already functioning waterfront environment. The private deepwater marina is active today, not planned or conceptual. For buyers assessing waterfront opportunities through the lens of durability and relevance, this distinction separates symbolic proximity from true access ### What Private Marina Access Means in Residential Real Estate [Private marina access](/the-marina/ "Private Deepwater Marina in Tampa Bay") refers to direct, resident-controlled integration between a home and a marina environment. In marina-integrated communities, the marina is not an off-site amenity or a public facility. It is physically embedded into the residential setting, shaping daily routines, arrival and departure patterns, and the overall rhythm of life on the water. At Luna at Marina Pointe, private marina access includes immediate adjacency to a protected yacht basin, direct navigation to Tampa Bay, and a residential layout oriented around the marina rather than around density or transient activity. The water is not a backdrop; it is the organizing element of the community. ### Why Marina-Integrated Living Now Functions as an Asset Class Luxury asset classes are defined by three conditions: scarcity, defensibility, and sustained demand. Marina-integrated residential communities meet all three. Across coastal markets, the entitlement and construction of new marinas has become increasingly constrained. Environmental regulations, shoreline limitations, infrastructure costs, and permitting timelines make replication difficult, particularly for projects that integrate marina access directly into residential life. As a result, new marina-forward communities are finite by nature. This scarcity is structural rather than cyclical. It is further reinforced by rising replacement costs, as the financial and regulatory barriers to delivering new marina-integrated developments continue to increase. Buyers evaluating long-term positioning increasingly recognize that these environments cannot be easily recreated. ![Aerial master site plan of waterfront marina with labeled buildings](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/marina-pointe-waterfront-development-02162026.webp) ### How Marina Pointe’s Peninsula Setting Reinforces Scarcity This asset-class scarcity becomes tangible at Marina Pointe. Set on a private, gated peninsula, the community benefits from natural boundaries that limit future density and preserve long-term waterfront character. Controlled access, protected sightlines, and marina adjacency are not subject to future infill or reconfiguration. The peninsula setting safeguards both the residential experience and the marina’s functional relevance over time. For buyers concerned with defensibility, this physical constraint matters. Peninsula-based marina communities offer a level of permanence that open-ended waterfront corridors cannot. ### Who Private Marina Access is Designed For While private marina access is highly functional for active boat owners, its appeal extends well beyond boating alone. Many buyers are drawn to the calm rhythm, protected water views, and visual order that marina environments provide. Daily life is shaped by movement on the water, open horizons, and a sense of control that public waterfront settings often lack. Second-home buyers, frequent travelers, and those planning long-term Florida residency also value marina-integrated living for its lock-and-leave ease. The combination of scale, service, and access allows owners to enjoy waterfront living without the maintenance demands of a single-family estate. ![Glass balcony of waterfront condo overlooking marina and boats](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/marina-pointe-balcony-overlooking-marina-02162026.webp) ### Why Luna at Marina Pointe Represents an Early-Cycle Opportunity [Luna at Marina Pointe](/ "Waterfront Condominiums & Marina Access in Florida") is currently offered at the preconstruction stage, with pricing starting in the $1 millions. Within marina-forward developments, this phase often represents the most disciplined alignment between pricing, selection, and long-term positioning. Unlike speculative waterfront offerings, Luna is not asking buyers to underwrite an unproven concept. Marina Pointe’s first residential tower is complete and sold out. The marina is operational. The Westshore Marina District is active and functioning as intended. What remains early is the opportunity within Luna itself. Early buyers benefit from preferred residence selection, stronger marina and bay-facing orientations, and pricing that reflects development-stage fundamentals rather than fully matured scarcity. ### How Timing and Marina Access Compound Value In marina-integrated communities, timing is not driven by urgency. It is driven by alignment. Buyers who enter early secure positions within a finite asset class before broader visibility and demand recalibrate pricing. This dynamic has already played out at Marina Pointe, where early buyers in the first tower committed before the marina and district were fully realized, then enjoyed a fully functioning waterfront environment as the community matured. Luna presents a similar moment, now within a more established and observable setting. As part of this preconstruction phase, a limited $10,000 consideration is currently being extended to buyers who formalize their purchase during this window. This consideration is tied to early entry and preconstruction commitment, recognizing decisive buyers at a point in the cycle where selection and pricing alignment still converge. ### Why Luna Should be the Starting Point for Evaluating this Asset Class For buyers assessing private marina access as a long-term lifestyle asset, Luna at Marina Pointe offers a rare convergence of proof, timing, and defensibility. Key attributes include: - True Tampa Bay frontage with direct private marina integration - A private peninsula setting that limits future supply and density - Preconstruction ownership with pricing starting in the $1 millions - Early selection within a community that is already operating as intended Rather than speculating on whether marina-forward living will retain relevance, buyers at Luna are entering a category that has already demonstrated its durability, now extended through a new residential offering. ![Maina Pointe Luna](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/marina-pointe-luna-social-081125-min.jpg) ### A Waterfront Decision Grounded in Foresight Private marina access is increasingly recognized as one of the most durable components of luxury waterfront living. As coastal supply tightens and marina development becomes harder to replicate, buyers are shifting from view-based decisions to environments where access to the water is functional, protected, and permanent. Luna at Marina Pointe represents a clear early opportunity within this asset class. It is not a future promise, but a continuation of a proven waterfront environment, offered at a moment when early positioning, selection, and pricing alignment remain available.

Cannons echo across the water. The horizon sharpens. And the billowing sails of the Jose Gasparilla II signal what locals already know: [Gasparilla weekend](https://gasparillapiratefest.com/ "More about the event weekent - opens in new tab") has arrived. Yes, it’s a citywide tradition—but for those who do it well, it’s also a masterclass in vantage point. This Gasparilla Tampa guide is designed for readers who prefer the weekend with a little more space, a little more access, and a little more intention—whether that means watching the Gasparilla Pirate Invasion in Tampa Bay from the water, slipping into a private viewing party, or resetting somewhere timeless once the parade energy fades. #### Quick Answers: Gasparilla at a Glance - **What is Gasparilla best known for?** The Gasparilla Pirate Invasion and the city’s signature parade festivities that follow. - **Where are the best places to watch Gasparilla in Tampa?** From the water (private vessel), elevated clubs with panoramic views, or select waterfront venues on and around Harbour Island and Bayshore. - **Is it better to watch from the water or from Bayshore Boulevard?** If your goal is comfort and spectacle, watching Gasparilla from the water in Tampa Bay is hard to beat. ![Boats and spectators on Tampa Bay during the Gasparilla Pirate Invasion](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/012326-marina_pointe_tampa_gasparilla_parade-copy.webp) #### 1) The Art of the Private Flotilla If you ask seasoned locals for the best places to watch Gasparilla in Tampa, the answer often starts on the water. Following the pirate ship as it moves into the channel is a time-honored tradition—but the experience changes entirely when you’re part of the flotilla instead of the crowd. Private yacht charters during Gasparilla are the ultimate vantage point: open-air views, controlled energy, and the kind of comfort that turns a chaotic spectacle into something curated. ***Private option to know: Florida Yacht Life*** For a more elevated approach, [Florida Yacht Life](https://floridayachtlife.com/gasparilla-boat-yacht-rentals/ "more about the yacht rentals - opens in new tab") offers an experience aboard the *Star Sapphire*—a superyacht charter that pairs sweeping 360-degree views with white-glove hosting, chef catering options, and a polished onboard pace. ***A local lifestyle note*** When you live on the water, Gasparilla feels less like an event you “commute” to—and more like something that arrives at your doorstep. Waterfront ownership in Tampa Bay at residences like [Luna at Marina Pointe](https://luna-marinapointe.com/ "Learn more about Luna - opens in new tab") quietly changes your relationship with weekends like this: fewer logistics, more spontaneity, and a stronger sense of being in the city’s flow. #### 2) High-Altitude Hospitality Not everyone wants to navigate the bay—and that’s the point. Tampa’s most composed Gasparilla viewing party experiences unfold above the street-level energy, where the view is wide and the atmosphere is controlled. ***The Tampa Club*** Perched high above downtown, The Tampa Club is a standout for anyone looking for a VIP invasion experience with panoramic sightlines and a more refined tempo—ideal if you want to watch the spectacle without living inside it. ***Jackson’s Bistro on Harbour Island*** If you prefer a slightly more social scene with a waterfront edge, [Jackson’s](https://www.jacksonsbistro.com/events/gasparilla-at-jacksons "more about Jacksons Gasperilla - opens in new tab") remains a perennial favorite. The appeal is the access: prime views, a celebratory atmosphere, and the feeling that you’re close to the action without being swallowed by it. ![Aerial view of a pool deck with lounge chairs beside bright blue water](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/012326-marina_pointe_tampa_pool-min.jpg) #### 3) The Reset After the Cannons Gasparilla is exhilarating, but the mark of an elevated lifestyle is knowing exactly how to come down from it. ***Epicurean Hotel*** For visitors and locals alike, the [Epicurean](https://www.epicureanhotel.com/relax/ "Epicurean website - opens in new tab") offers a post-event pivot: spa time, calm corners, and a polished bar scene that feels like an exhale after the weekend’s peak energy. ***Bern’s Steak House*** Some traditions don’t need reinvention. A late reservation at [Bern’s](https://bernssteakhouse.com/ "Bern’s Steak House website - opens in new tab") remains one of Tampa’s most iconic ways to close the loop—especially with an ending in the Harry Waugh Dessert Room, where the city’s timeless side takes over. #### 4) A Tradition Made Yours At its best, Gasparilla isn’t about beads—it’s about Tampa Bay itself. The water. The ritual. The sense that the city still knows how to celebrate a story. Whether your version of the weekend is a luxury Gasparilla experience in Tampa, a rooftop-style gathering, or a refined dinner after the parade, the common thread is always the same: vantage point. And over time, that’s what defines how you live here—especially if your home life is anchored to the waterfront. ![People boarding a boat near luxury waterfront condominiums in Tampa](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/012326-marina_pointe_tampa_luxury_waterfornt_condos.webp) #### Explore the Waterfront Lifestyle Behind the Weekend If Gasparilla reminds you why Tampa Bay is so magnetic, it’s worth seeing what life here looks like when the celebration ends—and the water stays.

There’s a rare, quiet prestige in checking the tides before checking a reservation and knowing that the evening’s commute involves a gentle cruise across the water rather than the stress of a highway. As Tampa’s culinary profile ascends to meet its flourishing skyline, a new standard for “waterfront dining” develops. Today’s discerning palate demands an effortless segue from the deck to a dining room. Here’s the current rotation for those who live a life led by the water. ![Man and woman dining outdoors at waterfront restaurant with plants and marina in background.](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/marina-pointe-outdoor-dining-couple-terrace-02192026.webp) ### Casa Santo Stefano Nestled along Ybor City’s historic brick-lined streets, [Casa Santo Stefano](https://casasantostefano.com/ "Casa Santo Stefano | Elegant Boutique Hotel in Rome") – an authentic Sicilian restaurant – is a popular destination for those docking at nearby Water Street or the Channel District. It provides an experience of “Old World” opulence that is increasingly rare. The menu is a sophisticated homage to Sicilian heritage, featuring salt-crusted snapper and rich, complex pastas that pair beautifully with their specialized reserve list. At the rooftop terrace, panoramic views of the shipping channels and the city’s glowing silhouette remain the top spot for an evening espresso or a vintage cigar. ### Anchor and Brine Located at the base of the JW Marriott, [Anchor and Brine](https://www.anchorandbrine.com/ "Anchor & Brine – Waterfront Dining & Seafood Market") is the quintessential “see and be seen” destination for the Water Street crowd. The aesthetic is crisp and maritime, mirrored by a menu that emphasizes raw-bar purity. The crudo and cold-water oysters are non-negotiable starters. It is a space that understands the modern resident, someone who enjoys an energetic and sophisticated environment where the service is as sharp as the plating. ### Salt Shack on the Bay Despite its purposefully unpretentious name, [Salt Shack](https://salt-shack.com/ "Salt Shack – Fresh Seafood, Drinks & Ocean Views") has become the definitive waypoint for the Westshore yachting set. It serves as a natural gathering spot for [Marina Pointe](/ "Marina Pointe – Tampa Bay Waterfront Living & Homes") residents to catch up over fresh oysters and salt-air breezes, often acting as a casual extension of the neighborhood’s social life. Because the entrance is within a brief walk of the property, it is an easy destination for a sunset drink or an impromptu dinner with neighbors. ![Couple wearing sunglasses relaxing on marina dock with high-rise building behind them.](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/marina-pointe-waterfront-lifestyle-couple-dock-02192026.webp) ### Slowing the Pace The ultimate luxury here is found in the absence of a commute and the quiet presence of the tide. In Tampa, the finest tables are always best reached by water as it remains the city’s most elegant passage. **Categories:** Blog --- ### [Coastal Contemporary Design Priorities for Today’s Luxury Buyer](https://marinapointe.com/coastal-contemporary-design-priorities-for-todays-luxury-buyer/) **Published:** February 19, 2026 **Author:** Phillip **Content:** ![Adam Kaufman Premier Sotheby’s International Realty](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/marina-pointe-adam-kaufman-headshot-02192026.webp) **By [Adam Kaufmann](https://www.linkedin.com/in/adam-kaufman-671a7a3/ "linkedin profile")** Senior Vice President, New Development Services Premier Sotheby’s International Realty Luxury waterfront buyers today are not motivated by spectacle or urgency. They respond to clarity, precision, and the rare alignment of timing and opportunity. Across Florida’s premier coastal markets, and particularly in Tampa Bay, the strategic purchase decisions are being made at the pre-construction stage, when pricing remains aligned with early-cycle positioning and buyers can evaluate fundamentals before scarcity reshapes the landscape. These windows never stay open long. [At Luna at Marina Pointe](/residences/ "Residences at Marina Pointe | Modern Waterfront Living"), buyers have the opportunity to secure true Tampa Bay waterfront residences during the project’s pre-construction phase, with pricing currently starting from the $1 millions. This opportunity exists within a community that has already proven itself. Marina Pointe’s first residential tower is complete and sold out. The private deepwater marina is fully operational. [The Westshore Marina District](/the-district-2/ "MMarina Pointe - Shops, Dining & Waterfront Living") is active, established, and thriving. What remains early is entry into Luna itself. This article explores how today’s most discerning buyers are evaluating coastal contemporary design, early-entry strategy, and risk mitigation – and why Marina Pointe stands as a definitive example of where these priorities converge. For buyers who view real estate through the lens of replacement cost, long-term scarcity, and daily lifestyle use, this phase of Luna represents a compelling and disciplined point of entry. ![Penthouse living room with curved sofa and ocean view windows](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/marina-pointe-penthouse-great-room-water-view-02192026.webp) ### What defines coastal contemporary design for today’s luxury buyer? Coastal contemporary design prioritizes proportion, light, views, and effortless livability over trend-driven finishes or decorative excess. For luxury buyers, this translates to: - Architecture that quietly frames the view rather than competes with it - Floor-to-ceiling glass drawing the eye to the open water and horizon - Residences designed for daily living, not just occasional escape - Materials and layouts selected for longevity and enduring relevance Design clarity has become one of the most important risk-mitigation tools for buyers planning to hold waterfront property across multiple market cycles. At Marina Pointe, the design philosophy is unmistakably view-first and marina-forward. Residences orient naturally to Tampa Bay and the private marina, with expansive terraces conceived as true extensions of the interior. This is design shaped around real daily life – morning rituals, entertaining, extended stays, and effortless transitions between home and travel. ### Why are experienced buyers prioritizing early pre-construction purchases? For experienced buyers, early entry is not simply about being first, it is about being strategic. At a project’s beginning, developers are typically most aligned with creating momentum. Pricing reflects this alignment, offering buyers early access before values begin to rise alongside construction progress, demand, and reduced uncertainty. Pre-construction offers three clear advantages: 1. **Early pricing with built-in upside.** Historically, buyers who secure early positions benefit from appreciation as the project advances, construction milestones are met, and remaining inventory tightens. 1. **Best selection and view orientations.** Early buyers have access to the most desirable floorplans, elevations, and view corridors. These options are rarely available once a building approaches completion. 2. **Limited upfront commitment with maximum positioning.** Measured deposit structures allow buyers to secure premier waterfront real estate while maintaining liquidity and minimizing early capital exposure. At Luna, this combination offers meaningful long-term value creation. As the community continues to mature and the building takes shape, early purchasers are often positioned ahead of later buyers who enter at higher pricing with fewer choices. To acknowledge the strategic timing of this moment, ownership has extended a limited $10,000 purchase consideration for buyers who formalize their decision in February 2026. ### How does early entry create an advantage that builds throughout the construction period? One of the most important dynamics in luxury pre-construction is what happens as a building moves closer to completion: demand rises. This shift typically results in: - Upward Pricing adjustments as inventory narrows - Greater competition for remaining premium residences - Increased market attention as the project approaches completion At Luna, this dynamic is amplified by the strength of the surrounding community which is established, activated and desirable. As a new tower rises, visibility and demand will follow. Early entry is not about accepting uncertainty. It is about securing advantage before the market focuses its full attention. ![Waterfront residential towers overlooking marina filled with yachts](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/marina-pointe-exterior-towers-waterfront-view-0219202.webp) ### How does marina access influence long-term value and lifestyle? Few amenities create more enduring value in waterfront real estate then true marina integration. [True marina integration](/the-marina/ "Premium Waterfront Dock & Yacht Services at Marina Pointe") offers: - Direct boating access, not symbolic water adjacency - Daily visual activation through marina life and open water - Long-term scarcity driven by regulatory and environmental constraints At Marina Pointe, the marina access is not an ancillary amenity, it is the organizing principle of the community. From a lifestyle perspective, this shapes daily routines. From a value perspective, it creates defensibility that dense urban waterfront towers and retrofitted developments cannot replicate. ### Why is Tampa Bay attracting long-horizon luxury buyers now? [Tampa Bay](/tampa-bay/ "Waterfront Living & Coastal Lifestyle") has evolved into a mature luxury market, without losing its relative value positioning. Key drivers include: - Sustained executive relocation and corporate expansion - Immediate access to Tampa International Airport - Limited true waterfront development sites - A rising preference for lock-and-leave waterfront living Unlike markets where pricing has already fully matured, Tampa Bay continues to offer early-cycle opportunities within established infrastructure. Marina Pointe sits at the center of these dynamics, positioned on a private peninsula with natural supply constraints that protect long-term value. ### How does lock-and-leave design factor into purchase decisions? Time has become the ultimate currency for high-net-worth buyers. Lock-and-leave design supports: - Frequent travel without operational burden - Seasonal living without maintenance complexity - High security, privacy and concierge-level service Luna residences and comprehensive amenities allow buyers to enjoy waterfront living without the responsibilities associated with single-family ownership. ### What role does capital allocation play in early waterfront decisions? Buyers in this segment are rarely restricted by affordability. They are guided by capital efficiency. Early pre-construction allows them to: - Preserve liquidity through staggered deposits - Deploy capital gradually rather than abruptly - Secure a hard waterfront asset without disrupting performing portfolios For buyers evaluating capital placement over a five- to ten-year horizon, this combination creates an attractive balance of financial strength and lifestyle return. ![Modern waterfront condo towers beside marina with boats at sunset](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/marina-pointe-exterior-marina-boat-view-sunset-02192026.webp) ### How does Luna compare to other Florida waterfront options? Relative to Miami, Palm Beach, Naples, and Sarasota, Luna at Marina Pointe delivers a rare blend of value and exclusivity: - A private peninsula setting - An integrated, protected marina - A fully completed and sold-out first tower - Immediate access to Tampa’s business, cultural, and travel centers Buyers are not underwriting speculation. They are underwriting continuity, scarcity and proven demand. ### Is now the right time to act, or is waiting more prudent? For buyers who think in cycles rather than headlines, Luna represents a disciplined opportunity. Early pricing remains in place. Premium views and floorplans are still available. Evidence of success surrounds the project, yet competition has not fully intensified. This is the stage where alignment exists between value, selection, and timing, a window that never lasts. Private appointments are now being scheduled at the Marina Pointe Sales Gallery, where buyers can review availability, pre-construction timelines, and learn the details on the $10,000 limited time February incentive.

It’s easy to fall into the trap of the “required” grand gesture, the overbooked dining room, or the predictable bouquet. But for those of us who live with the Bay as our constant companion, the most memorable evenings are usually the ones that feel entirely unforced. They’re the nights that start on a quiet dock and end on a private terrace, far from the city’s hustle. If you’re looking to move through the weekend with a bit more grace, here’s how we’d suggest spending it. ### The Sunset Run There is something genuinely restorative about being on the water just as the day begins to settle. While the usual spots on the Riverwalk start to buzz with crowds, the Intracoastal Waterway offers a much-needed breath of space. If you have a boat at the ready, cast off an hour before the light turns. There is no better view of the skyline than from the deck of a vessel, watching the horizon soften into those Florida shades of amber and violet. If you’d rather not be at the helm, look toward [Craft Tampa](https://crafttampa.com/?gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=23418868773&gbraid=0AAAAA-hiNWnhHG09GIJaSe1KDfep6K8MZ&gclid=CjwKCAiA1obMBhAbEiwAsUBbIvW4_lu-eo7ISree6kPQ-XSlwcmtHXAVo9cUC7INZlGOr5yiMnG8OxoCVeQQAvD_BwE "Experience Tampa’s Scenic River Dining Cruise at Craft Tampa"). It’s a polished river cruiser that actually takes its kitchen seriously, offering an intimacy that feels like a private dinner party rather than a tour. ![A well-dressed couple sits at a modern restaurant table enjoying wine and plated dishes. The softly lit bar and arched shelving filled with bottles create a refined evening dining atmosphere.](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/marina-pointe-dinning-scape-02122026-iStock-2226472334.webp) ### A Table for Two The culinary landscape in Tampa has become so impressive lately that the choice has shifted from “where is good?” to “what’s the mood?” - [Lilac (The Edition)](https://www.lilacrestauranttampa.com/ "A Taste of Michelin Magic: Inside Lilac’s Modern Mediterranean in Tampa"): This is the place for a slow, contemplative evening. It holds its Michelin star with a certain effortless poise and the four-course menu is paced so you actually have time to talk. It’s Mediterranean, it’s meticulous, and the wine pairings are consistently surprising. - [Rocca](https://www.roccatampa.com/ "Rocca Tampa: Discover One of Tampa’s Michelin-Star Italian Dining Experiences"): If your idea of romance involves a bit more soul and some truly incredible handmade pasta, Rocca is the answer. The tableside mozzarella is a lovely bit of theater, but the real pull is the view of the river and the warmth of the room. It feels grounded, even at its most elegant. - [Haven](https://haventampa.com/ "Haven Tampa: A Sophisticated Wine, Whiskey & Small Plates Experience"): For something a bit more modern and high-energy, Haven is excellent. It’s home to one of the best whiskey libraries in the Southeast and a charcuterie program that feels more like an art form. ![Smiling couple in white bathrobes relaxing inside a wooden sauna.](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/marina-pointe-wooden-sauna-02122026-iStock-2241980182.webp) ### Slowing Down at SOHO Wellness Sometimes the best gift isn’t a reservation at all, but a few hours where the phone is off and the world is quiet. We’ve found [SOHO Wellness](https://soho-wellness.com/spa-packages/ "Ultimate Relaxation in Tampa: Discover SOHO Wellness Spa Packages") to be a perfect retreat for this, especially with their seasonal “SOHO with Your Sidekick” package. It’s a beautifully choreographed two-and-a-half-hour ritual that starts with time in the infrared sauna before moving into a couples’ massage with foot and back scrubs. They end the experience with a Valentine’s-inspired facial, making it the easiest way to reset and find a bit of stillness before the evening begins. ![Modern penthouse building with glass balconies overlooking coast at sunset.](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/marina-pointemodern-penthouse-02122026.webp) ### Home Becomes the Destination Some places don’t need reservations or grand gestures to feel romantic, they simply are. At Marina Pointe, Valentine’s Day unfolds with a quiet intimacy amplified by coastal views and the calm of a place designed for privacy. Romance here is personal with the privilege of enjoying a glass of wine on a private terrace as the bay turns pink or an evening walk along the waterfront. This isn’t a destination for an evening, but a way of living, reserved exclusively for those who call Marina Pointe home. ### The Beauty of the Weekend The goal this February shouldn’t be to follow a checklist. Instead, one should naturally lean onto the ease of the coast. South Tampa is at its most beautiful when you look past the standard holiday offerings and create something that feels like yours alone. Let the water dictate the pace and the rest usually falls into place. **Categories:** Blog, Press Releases --- ### [Tampa’s Job Growth is Changing](https://marinapointe.com/tampas-job-growth-is-changing/) **Published:** February 6, 2026 **Author:** Phillip **Content:** ### Tampa’s Job Growth is Changing Who Moves Here and Where They Live ![Studio headshot of a bald man with a beard wearing a dark blazer](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/marina-pointe-headshot-dominic-02102026.webp) Written by Dominic Pickering Source: [Tampa Bay Business Journal](https://www.bizjournals.com/tampabay/news/2026/02/06/tampa-job-growth-moving.html "How Tampa’s Job Growth Is Changing Migration Patterns") Post Date: February 6, 2026 For years, Tampa has been described as an “emerging” business market. In 2026, that label no longer applies. What’s happening now is sustained, measurable growth driven by companies relocating to or expanding in the region, and by the high-paying jobs that follow. According to the [Tampa Bay Economic Development Council](https://tampabayedc.com/tampa-bay-edc-is-future-ready-and-celebrates-2025-fiscal-year-accomplishments-at-annual-meeting/ "Tampa Employment Trends: Job Growth and Relocation Insights"), 29 companies chose to expand or move to the Tampa Bay area in fiscal year 2025, bringing a record $273 million in new investment. That momentum builds on more than a decade of activity. Since 2009, the EDC has worked with more than 400 businesses to support relocations and expansions. Those efforts have produced more than 44,000 direct jobs, an additional 52,000 indirect and induced jobs, and $4 billion in capital investment in Hillsborough County alone. Cumulatively, those projects have generated $23.4 billion in total economic output and added $114 million to the county’s tax base. These numbers help explain why Tampa’s growth feels different today. The companies arriving are not simply opening satellite offices. Many are building leadership teams, investing in infrastructure, and committing to long-term operations. Finance, professional services, health care, technology and advanced industries are all contributing to a more diversified and higher-wage economy. That shift is reflected in how people are relocating. Increasingly, executives and senior professionals are moving to Tampa full time. They are not buying seasonal homes or testing the market. They are planting roots, enrolling children in schools and seeking housing that reflects their living standards while offering everything Tampa has to offer, from waterfront living to proximity to major employment centers. As a result, the housing market, particularly at the higher end, is evolving alongside the job market. Demand is rising for primary residences that offer luxury, privacy, efficiency, and proximity to business centers. Access to Tampa International Airport, walkability, security and waterfront settings have become practical considerations rather than indulgences. This dynamic is especially visible in Tampa’s limited waterfront market. With few new waterfront sites available, well-located condominium developments are seeing increased interest from buyers focused on long-term value rather than short-term market timing. Luna at Marina Pointe is one example of a waterfront community that has seen demand grow in 2025. At the same time, the region is thinking proactively about what comes next. The EDC’s newly launched Future Ready: Tampa Bay Strategic Action Plan for fiscal years 2026-28 is designed to strengthen three core pillars — business development, talent development and place-based development – while advancing new catalyst initiatives focused on artificial intelligence, digital infrastructure and blue technology. Together, these priorities will continue to raise Tampa’s position as a globally competitive market, rather than a fast-growing one. What’s happening in Tampa today is not simply population growth or lifestyle migration. It is economic maturation, driven by companies, capital and talent moving in the same direction. As more high-paying jobs come online, demand for housing that reflects permanence, proximity and quality of life will continue to shape the city’s real estate landscape. In many ways, Tampa is no longer asking whether growth is coming. In this new year, the more relevant question is how it continues to accommodate that growth thoughtfully, strategically and for the long term. **Categories:** Blog, Press Releases --- ### [Why Tampa Bay’s Luxury Lifestyle Is Capturing Attention](https://marinapointe.com/why-tampa-bays-luxury-lifestyle-is-capturing-attention/) **Published:** October 6, 2025 **Author:** Phillip **Content:** ### Why Tampa Bay’s Luxury Lifestyle Is Capturing Attention ![Couple enjoying drinks on a private balcony overlooking Tampa Bay at Marina Pointe](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/hp-marina-pointe-geo-article-luxury-lifestyle-10032025-min.jpg) Miami and Palm Beach have long led the coastal luxury living story, but Tampa Bay is writing the next chapter. Tap to see why Florida’s dynamic west coast is winning the favor boating enthusiasts and luxury lifestyle aficionados. For years, Miami and Palm Beach have been synonymous with Florida luxury. Yet as the spotlight intensifies and the crowds expand, a new coast is quietly rising in appeal. [ The Tampa Bay luxury lifestyle](/tampa-bay/ "Miami and Palm Beach have been synonymous with Florida luxury") is attracting discerning buyers with its rare balance of Florida waterfront real estate, vibrant cultural offerings, and a sense of lasting livability. Let’s explore why it has many rethinking their next chapter in Florida. ![Evening street view of historic City in Tampa with lights and restaurants](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/hp-marina-pointe-geo-article-tampa-city-10032025-min.jpg) #### A Tampa Bay Luxury Lifestyle Without Compromise Today’s Florida waterfront real estate buyers are not simply seeking a home; they are curating a way of life. Those on Tampa Bay are central to the best of it. To the east, [Tampa’s downtown](https://www.visittampabay.com/map/ "Those on Tampa Bay are central to the best of it.") is alive with the Straz Center for Performing Arts, the Tampa Museum of Art, and the scenic Riverwalk lined with dining and nightlife. To the west, [St. Petersburg](https://www.stpete.org/ "St. Petersburg offers world-renowned museums and a bustling pier district") offers world-renowned museums and a bustling pier district. Or, right in the middle, Tampa Bay itself invites morning sails across the water, followed by indulgent lunches at Michelin-starred waterfront destinations. Every option – whether cultural, culinary, or coastal – is close at hand. ![Man sitting by the window overlooking the Marina Pointe marina from a luxury condo](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/hp-marina-pointe-geo-article-florida-financial-10032025-min.jpg) #### Florida’s Financial Edge for the Future Lifestyle, however, goes hand in hand with legacy. Florida’s favorable business climate has attracted a growing number of corporations to establish roots here, and Tampa Bay is at the center of that momentum. Global names such as Citi, JPMorgan Chase, and Moffitt Cancer Center continue to expand their presence, creating a dynamic business landscape. Coupled with no state income tax and no tax on retirement income, such as 401(k) withdrawals, it’s no surprise that more people are settling into the Tampa Bay luxury lifestyle. ![Airplane reflection on glass at Tampa International Airport terminal](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/hp-marina-pointe-geo-article-tampa-airport-10032025-min.jpg) #### The Gateway to Global Destinations For those who travel often, Tampa offers no shortage of connections. Tampa International Airport, consistently ranked among the nation’s best, provides direct service to more than 90 domestic and international destinations. Private and corporate travelers also benefit from nearby options such as Peter O. Knight, Tampa Executive, and St. Pete–Clearwater airports. Adding to the accessibility, Port Tampa Bay offers a wide selection of cruises just minutes to the west. ![Woman sitting on the dock with paddleboarders in front of Marina Pointe residences](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/hp-marina-pointe-geo-article-gateway-global-destination-310032025-min.jpg) #### Where Lifestyle Is Defined by Leisure It’s not only about convenience and connectivity beyond the doorstep—discerning buyers are also seeking Florida waterfront real estate that delivers comfort and exclusivity at home. The newly released [Luna at Marina Pointe](/residences/ "The newly released Luna at Marina Pointe eflects this evolving lifestyle.") reflects this evolving lifestyle. Set on a private peninsula, the community pairs modern condominium living with resort-style amenities and white-glove services. A 150-slip private marina on a 13-acre deep-water basin, state-of-the-art fitness centers, resort pools, curated social lounges, and 24-hour concierge service are just the beginning of the planned amenity lineup. Together, they create a residential setting that feels both dynamic and distinctly private. **Categories:** Blog --- ### [Waterfront Condo During Preconstruction](https://marinapointe.com/the-strategic-advantages-of-entering-a-waterfront-condo-during-preconstruction/) **Published:** January 22, 2026 **Author:** Phillip **Content:** ### The Strategic Advantages of Entering a Waterfront Condo During Preconstruction ![Black-and-white professional portrait of a man wearing glasses, a suit jacket, and white shirt against a dark background.](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/marina-pointer-noah_breaskstone_bti_partners-01222026.webp) *By* [*Noah Breakstone*](https://www.linkedin.com/in/noah-breakstone-97ba576/ "Noah Breakstone") *Managing Partner and CEO BTI Partners* As a developer, I’m often asked why preconstruction plays such an important role in how luxury waterfront communities come to life. My answer is rarely about timing alone—it’s about positioning. In markets like Tampa Bay, and particularly in walkable waterfront districts, the most strategic opportunities often appear before a building ever rises above the shoreline. As [Marina Pointe](/ "Marina Pointe, a luxury condominium community within the Westshore Marina District") evolves, we’re seeing strong interest in Luna, the community’s second tower, along with an exclusive collection of Harbour Homes. This next phase reflects how early decisions around planning, design, and timing shape long-term value in waterfront communities. ![Luxury waterfront condominiums with glass balconies overlooking a marina](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/marina_pointe_tampa_waterfront_luxury-01222026.webp) ### Why Does Timing Matter in Luxury Waterfront Condo Cycles? From a development standpoint, timing matters because luxury waterfront communities are designed, delivered, and absorbed in phases. Preconstruction represents the earliest point in that lifecycle, when the vision is fully defined, but the physical building has yet to be completed. As construction progresses, certainty increases—around design execution, amenities, delivery timelines, and how the community integrates into its surroundings. That evolution naturally influences how a community is perceived within its market. In Tampa Bay, where waterfront land is finite and walkable marina districts are rare, new residential opportunities are limited. Marina Pointe reflects this reality. With the first tower complete and sold out, Luna represents the next phase of an established waterfront community rather than a standalone or speculative concept. ### What Are the Pricing Advantages of Buying a Condo During Preconstruction? During preconstruction, pricing is established to reflect both the building’s long-term vision and the realities of timing. Buyers who enter earlier in the process are committing further in advance of completion, assuming a longer wait period and greater exposure to potential market shifts during the construction cycle. As a result, early pricing phases are typically structured to acknowledge that added time horizon. As construction milestones are achieved and the delivery timeline becomes more defined, the pool of potential buyers often expands to include those who prioritize certainty and immediacy. Pricing at later stages tends to reflect that reduced uncertainty and the appeal of near-term occupancy. At Marina Pointe, this progression is visible as Luna moves through its development lifecycle. Residences currently begin from the $1 millions, which is relatively uncommon for new waterfront condominiums of this scale within [a walkable marina district in Tampa Bay](/the-district-2/ "The District at Marina Pointe – Waterfront Living & Lifestyle in Tampa Bay"). As the building advances and completion comes into clearer focus, pricing is expected to evolve to reflect both the project’s maturation and broader market demand—rather than a single moment in time. ![Luxury waterfront condo interior with modern kitchen, dining area, and expansive bay views](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/marina_pointe_tampa_interior_view-01222026.webp) ### How Does Early Entry Affect Residence Selection and Customization? As construction progresses, finishes and materials must be finalized for the general contractor, limiting the ability to accommodate individual preferences. Buyers entering later in the process evaluate availability based on the interior packages selected by the development team rather than personalized options. However, during the early phases of preconstruction, buyers generally have access to a broader range of options. Early purchasers have the ability to consider: - A wider selection of available floor plans - More choice in elevations, views, and orientations - Greater flexibility in interior finishes, while selections remain open At Luna, [residences](/residences/ "Marina Pointer Residents") are planned to range from approximately 1,100 to 3,400 square feet, with expansive floor-to-ceiling glass and generous private terraces. Entering earlier allows buyers to better align layout and views with how they intend to use the residence. ### Can Preconstruction Condos Appreciate Before They’re Completed? While real estate appreciation is never guaranteed, completed projects can offer useful historical context. In many cases, pricing evolves as construction milestones are reached and uncertainty around delivery, design execution, and market acceptance is reduced. ![Resort-style waterfront pool deck with palm trees and marina views](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/marina-pointe-tampa-waterfront-lifestyle-01222026.webp) ### Why Is Marina Pointe Well Positioned in Tampa’s Current Market Cycle? Marina Pointe is not a speculative concept—it is part of an active, master-planned waterfront district that is already established and growing. The surrounding Westshore Marina District has also matured. Marina Landings is now open and active, with retail shops, restaurants, and neighborhood services, contributing to a walkable daily lifestyle. The adjacent deep-water marina accommodates vessels up to 90 feet and provides an array of amenities and services, reinforcing Marina Pointe’s identity as a true waterfront community connected to Tampa Bay. With the first residential tower complete and occupied, Luna represents the next phase of an existing waterfront environment—one that buyers can see, experience, and evaluate today rather than imagine. This level of completion and activity provides context, confidence, and transparency that are not always available in earlier-stage developments. ![Marina Pointe sales gallery exterior with outdoor seating and signage](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/marina-pointe-sales-gallery-01222026.webp) ### Frequently Asked Questions About Preconstruction Waterfront Condos #### **Do I need to live locally to buy preconstruction?** No. Many purchasers in waterfront communities like Marina Pointe are based out of state or are planning for second-home or future relocation use. The preconstruction process is structured to accommodate that. #### **Can I tour anything before the next tower is completed?** Yes. In addition to the Marina Pointe Sales Gallery—which includes an architectural model and full-size designer kitchen—buyers can also experience the completed first residential tower. Touring the finished building allows prospective purchasers to gain a firsthand understanding of the level of construction quality, finishes, ceiling heights, and overall execution that define the Marina Pointe residences. #### **Is preconstruction only for investors?** Not at all. Most preconstruction buyers are lifestyle-driven – planning ahead for retirement, seasonal living, or future relocation. #### **What is the longer-term outlook for the Tampa Bay Waterfront Market?** Tampa Bay continues to emerge as a national waterfront destination, driven by population growth, infrastructure investment, and limited availability of developable waterfront land. As more buyers from established coastal markets seek lifestyle-driven alternatives, demand has increasingly shifted toward walkable, mixed-use waterfront districts. From a development perspective, projects that integrate residential, marina access, retail, and public space—while limiting future supply—tend to hold long-term relevance within their markets. Marina Pointe reflects this evolution, positioning itself within a district designed for year-round living rather than seasonal use alone. ### **Final Thoughts** Preconstruction plays a critical role in how waterfront communities are planned, delivered, and ultimately experienced. For buyers who value early access, long-term planning, and clarity around a project’s vision, entering during the preconstruction phase offers a way to engage with a community before it reaches full maturity. At Marina Pointe, Luna represents the next chapter of an established waterfront district—one that is already active, occupied, and evolving. Buyers considering this phase are able to evaluate not just plans and renderings, but a real place taking shape along Tampa Bay. To explore current pricing and availability, I invite you to request details at [MarinaPointe.com](/ "Marina Pointe, a luxury condominium community within the Westshore Marina District") or visit the Marina Pointe Sales Gallery, open daily at 4900 Bridge Street, where you can experience the architectural model and full-size designer kitchen in person. **Categories:** Blog --- ### [Marina Pointe Earns Three Americas Property Awards](https://marinapointe.com/tampa-bays-marina-pointe-wins-three-americas-property-awards-for-excellence-in-luxury-waterfront-living/) **Published:** January 23, 2026 **Author:** Phillip **Content:** ### Tampa Bay’s Marina Pointe Wins Three Americas Property Awards for Excellence in Luxury Waterfront Living ![Executive director holding three Americas Property Awards in front of International Property Awards backdrop](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/marina-pointe-dominique-award-012302026.webp) *Dominic Pickering, Executive Director of Marina Pointe* *Post Date: January 9, 2026 Source : [PR Newswire](https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/tampa-bays-marina-pointe-wins-three-americas-property-awards-for-excellence-in-luxury-waterfront-living-302657482.html "Tampa Bay's Marina Pointe Wins Three Americas Property Awards for Excellence in Luxury Waterfront Living")* Setting a new benchmark for luxury waterfront living in Florida, Marina Pointe, a state-of-the-art condominium community located within Tampa Bay’s 52-acre Westshore Marina District, has been honored with three Americas Property Awards by the International Property Awards organization.

Marina Pointe’s first residential tower has sold out, while Luna at Marina Pointe, the second phase, is now offering pre-construction waterfront residences ranging from 1,100 to over 3,400 square feet, priced from $1 million to more than $4 million. Each home features floor-to-ceiling glass, designer-curated finishes, and open layouts that showcase sweeping views of Tampa Bay.

For those drawn to waterfront living, this optionality is what sets Tampa Bay apart. It’s also why [waterfront condos in Tampa Bay](/ "Marina Pointe – Luxury Waterfront Condos in Tampa Bay") have evolved beyond scenic overlooks, placing greater emphasis on how residents interact with the water itself. The most compelling waterfront lifestyles are designed around how people actually use the water—frequently, casually, and often without advance planning. ![Couple walking along a marina dock with boats and palm trees](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/marina-pointer-couple-walking-along-marina-dock-01282026.webp) ### Why Marina Access Along Tampa Bay Matters More Than Ever Modern waterfront luxury is no longer about formality or scale alone. It’s about convenience. Boating access that removes barriers—long drives to marinas, scheduling challenges, maintenance logistics—allows time on the water to feel like an extension of daily life rather than a production. This level of access has become a defining element of today’s luxury waterfront living. In [Tampa Bay](/tampa-bay/ "Slip Into Paradise — Marina Pointe in Tampa Bay Waterfront Living"), this ease is supported by geography. The bay’s inland waters offer protection and smooth cruising, while deepwater channels provide direct access to the Gulf. From early-morning fishing runs to evening cruises past the skyline, boating here adapts to the moment. ![Aerial view of marina with boats and waterfront buildings](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/marina-pointer-aerial-view-of-marina-and-waterfront-residences-01282026.webp) ### Slip Ownership and the Value of Keeping Your Boat Close Having a marina directly on-site simplifies boating in a way off-site storage never can. Residential marinas along Tampa Bay offer the advantage of proximity—boats are stored where you live, not miles away. For owners, this means less preparation and more spontaneity. At Marina Pointe, [the private marina](/the-marina/ "The Marina – Private Deepwater Marina & Waterfront Living at Marina Pointe") includes a limited number of deepwater slips ranging from approximately 40’ to 90’, accommodating a wide range of vessels. The marina is designed to support both cruising and sportfishing lifestyles, with protected access that allows for frequent use rather than occasional outings. ![Boats stored on racks inside a warehouse](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/marina-pointer-Indoor-boat-storage-facility-01282026.webp) ### Inside PORT 32: Dry Storage with Full-Service Support For boaters who prefer a hands-off approach, [PORT 32](https://www.port32marinas.com/p32marinas/tampa "PORT 32 Marinas Tampa – Premier Dry & Wet Slip Marina on Old Tampa Bay") offers on-site dry stack storage designed for quick launches and easy returns. Dry stack storage is a popular option throughout Tampa Bay, allowing boats to be stored indoors and protected from sun and weather. Boats are stored indoors on multi-level racks, protected from sun exposure and weather, and launched by trained staff upon request. The advantage is immediacy without ownership burden. Boats can be in the water quickly, maintenance is professionally managed, and return is just as seamless. For many, dry storage provides a way to enjoy boating regularly without the long-term responsibilities associated with dockage. ![Aerial view of yacht on open water](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/marina-pointer-aerial-view-of-yacht-on-open-water-01282026.webp) ### Gulfstream Boat Club: Boating Without Ownership Another option reshaping waterfront living in Tampa Bay is the rise of private boat clubs. [Gulfstream Boat Club](https://www.gulfstreamboatclub.com/ "Gulf Stream Boat Club – Premium Florida Boat Club Membership & Fleet") offers members access to a fleet of professionally maintained vessels, reserved in advance and ready to use without the costs or upkeep of ownership. For many, a boat club offers access to multiple vessels without the responsibilities of ownership, making it easier to enjoy the water on short notice. It’s a model designed for those who value time and variety over long-term commitment, and it has become an increasingly popular way to experience Tampa Bay from the water. ![Waterfront lifestyle moment](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/marina-pointe-tampa-lifestyle-waterfront-01282026.webp) ### How Optionality Shapes Everyday Waterfront Living What makes Tampa Bay distinctive is how easily boating fits into daily routines. A midweek sunset cruise doesn’t require a special occasion. Visiting friends can turn into an afternoon on the water. Charter fishing, dockside dining, and marina walks all exist within the same ecosystem. Communities like Marina Pointe reflect this broader shift in how luxury condos with Tampa Bay access are planned. Rather than treating the marina as a separate destination, its location within the [Westshore Marina District](/the-district-2/ "The District – Waterfront Living, Shops & Dining at Marina Pointe Tampa Bay") was created to be surrounded by walkable waterfront neighborhoods, dining, fitness, and other amenities. ![Waterfront condominium overlooking marina](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/marina-pointer-waterfront-condominium-overlooking-marina-01282026.webp) ### Seeing the Bay from a New Perspective From waterfront residences overlooking Tampa Bay, boating becomes part of the visual landscape as much as the lifestyle itself. At Marina Pointe, [planned residences](/residences/ "Marina Pointe Residences – Luxury Waterfront Homes & Bayside Living in Tampa Bay") feature expansive terraces and floor-to-ceiling glass that frame views of the marina and open water below, reinforcing the connection between home and harbor.

According to Ryan Shaw, first vice president of investments at Marcus & Millichap, “waterfront development in Florida is shifting away from traditional, single-use zoning, instead evolving into multi-functional destinations where people can live, work, relax and socialize in one integrated space.” These waterfront developments in Florida are attracting both residents and tourists by offering vibrant, sustainable communities that cater to modern lifestyles. The appeal of these waterfront spaces has grown in the post-pandemic era, with tenants prioritizing amenities like food, beverage and entertainment as key features of new projects, Shaw added further. Florida continues to attract a significant number of residents, especially from the Northeastern U.S. Many newcomers are downsizing from single-family homes and seeking access to resort-style amenities without the burden of maintenance, elaborates Dominic Pickering, executive director at BTI Partners. This trend, coupled with growing demand for waterfront living in Florida, has led to a shift in the types of commercial developments that are taking root along Florida’s shores. The natural human connection to water also plays a critical role in driving demand for Florida’s waterfront development. “Waterfront spaces offer relaxation, connection to nature and a unique sense of place, making them ideal for dining, leisure and community interaction,” said Andrew Hellinger, principal at URBAN-X. However, in areas like Miami-Dade County, limited available waterfront land has increased competition and demand among developers. Despite a recent slowdown in demand due to rising construction costs, increased supply and the impacts of natural events, the overall outlook for Florida waterfront commercial developments remains strong. Mika Mattingly, executive vice president at Colliers, emphasizes that Florida’s business-friendly environment and high livability ratings continue to support demand for premium waterfront properties, particularly in South Florida, where luxurious new projects remain highly sought after. In response, developers are adapting to these market shifts by creating Florida waterfront developments that blend convenience, walkability and vibrant amenities, while prioritizing long-term sustainability in the face of climate challenges. ## Florida’s transformative waterfront developments This adaptability is evident in Florida’s waterfront commercial developments. The state’s coastline is undergoing a remarkable transformation, with an influx of commercial waterfront developments that blend office, retail, hospitality and entertainment spaces with scenic waterfront access. From Miami to Tampa, these waterfront developments are harnessing the state’s natural beauty and booming growth to create vibrant, mixed-use destinations that appeal to both businesses and residents alike. In Miami, the Miami River Landing project exemplifies this shift, offering a dynamic combination of office, retail and residential spaces along the river. Its proximity to key urban amenities and waterfront views makes it a highly desirable location for businesses looking to establish a presence in Miami’s growing commercial waterfront development district. Similarly, the $2 billion Bahia Mar redevelopment in Fort Lauderdale is positioning itself as a commercial waterfront hotspot, offering luxury amenities, a marina and retail outlets. This ambitious project aims to transform the area into a “Mini Monaco,” further enhancing its appeal as a waterfront commercial development destination, while hosting events like the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show, which draws millions annually. ![View of Marina Pointe's new construction waterfront condos in Tampa's Westshore Marina District, featuring modern architecture, luxury interiors, and resort-style amenities with deepwater marina access.](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/OTOH_Marina-Pointe_Ext_Hover_Final01-scaled.jpg) On Tampa’s waterfront, the Water Street Tampa project stands out as a major Florida commercial waterfront development. This mixed-use project combines office spaces, retail, hospitality and public areas with a walkable design, aiming to become the city’s new economic hub. Nearby, 401 East Jackson is an office tower offering sweeping views of the waterfront and proximity to downtown amenities, reflecting Tampa’s increasing appeal as a commercial waterfront center along the Gulf Coast. The Westshore Marina District in Tampa also blends commercial and luxury waterfront living, featuring high-end retail, dining and office spaces. This 52-acre development is anchored by the exclusive Marina Pointe, with a private marina offering access to the Gulf of Mexico, making it a prime location for businesses that value both luxury and waterfront accessibility. North Bay Village, situated between Miami and Miami Beach, is another area drawing significant commercial waterfront development interest. MG Developer’s revitalization of this location includes a variety of new office, hotel and restaurant concepts that cater to the area’s growing demand for Florida waterfront commercial spaces. ## Tackling challenges, seizing waterfront opportunities Florida’s waterfront development is a balancing act, with developers navigating a complex landscape of rising costs, environmental concerns and evolving regulations. According to Alex Zylberglait, executive managing director of investments at Marcus & Millichap’s Miami office, Florida’s waterfront development faces significant challenges due to escalating land prices, rising construction costs and higher insurance premiums. Additionally, the demand for infrastructure improvements—such as upgraded transportation and water systems—adds complexity to projects, often resulting in impact fees. Stricter building codes, implemented after the Surfside building collapse, are also reshaping how developers approach planning and execution, further influencing the development landscape. Environmental sustainability is a critical factor influencing Florida waterfront projects. Developers must protect fragile ecosystems like mangroves and coral reefs, which play vital roles in biodiversity and storm protection. Shoreline stabilization and sea-level rise adaptation are now standard considerations in project planning. MG Developer emphasizes the importance of incorporating eco-conscious features, while also ensuring compliance with stringent environmental regulations. Pollution control is another pressing issue, with initiatives to maintain clean waterways becoming a priority for long-term project viability. At the same time, waterfront commercial projects are evolving to meet growing demand for vibrant, multi-use destinations. Developments like Tampa’s Water Street and Riverwalk are setting new standards by integrating retail, dining and entertainment into dynamic urban spaces. Miami River projects similarly combine hospitality, nightlife and marina access, offering both functionality and luxury. The focus is expanding beyond traditional oceanfront locations to include riverfronts and bayfronts, as seen in Jacksonville and Fort Lauderdale, which offer untapped potential for innovative Florida commercial waterfront hubs. Looking ahead, resiliency will shape Florida’s waterfront developments. Elevated construction, stormproof designs and sustainable materials are becoming the norm, ensuring projects can withstand rising sea levels and extreme weather. As Shaw notes, emerging markets like Cocoa Beach and North Bay Village are poised for growth, driven by improved infrastructure and accessibility. According to Hellinger, “rising sea levels and extreme weather events are reshaping development strategies, with a focus on resiliency and long-term viability.” Florida’s waterfronts are not just about scenic views—they are evolving into dynamic commercial waterfront centers that balance economic opportunity with environmental responsibility, setting the stage for sustainable growth over the next decade. **Categories:** Blog, Press Releases --- ### [Dining Experiences in Westshore Marina District](https://marinapointe.com/dining-experiences-in-westshore-marina-district/) **Published:** November 30, 2023 **Author:** Phillip **Content:** ![New construction waterfront condos for sale at Marina Pointe in Tampa's Westshore Marina District, featuring modern architecture, luxury interiors, and resort-style amenities with deepwater marina access.](/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/Romeo_Durshar-300x251.png "Romeo_Durshar - Marina Pointe")Romeo Dursher Nestled along the glistening shores of Tampa Bay, the Westshore Marina District is a vibrant hub of activity, offering a captivating blend of upscale living, outdoor recreation, and, of course, delectable dining options.

They’re woven into the fabric of the city, creating an environment where generosity, connection, and refinement coexist. ![Rendering of waterfront residential towers overlooking a marina.](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/marina-pointe-luna-rendering-123025.webp) #### Waterfront Living at the Heart of Tampa Bay’s Cultural Core Within this lifestyle, waterfront communities play a quiet but influential role.

What begins as a sports weekend often becomes a deeper introduction to [Tampa’s waterfront lifestyle](/tampa-bay/ "Tampa’s waterfront lifestyle") — one shaped by sunshine, easy movement between districts, and the calming presence of the bay. ![Buccaneers game at Raymond James Stadium with players on the field and the large pirate ship behind the crowd.](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/marina-pointe-tampa-international-soccer-players-120925.webp) ### International Soccer Keeps Finding Its Way to Tampa Even without hosting official [2026 FIFA World Cup](https://www.fifa.com/en/tournaments/mens/worldcup/canadamexicousa2026 "FIFA World Cup 2026™ – Canada · Mexico · USA: Official Tournament Hub") matches, Tampa continues to secure meaningful fixtures on the global soccer calendar. The U.S. Men’s National Team meeting Uruguay at Raymond James Stadium brought in supporters from across the country, and the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup added another high-profile moment to the city’s resume. Tampa remains a dependable choice for major exhibitions thanks to its NFL-caliber venue, reliable weather, and the kind of enthusiastic crowd energy international teams look for. ![Large “GO BUCS” sign at Raymond James Stadium with palm trees and clear blue sky.](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/marina-pointe-go-Bucs-tampa-blog121225.webp) ### **A Sports Culture With Deep, Multi-League Roots** Soccer may be growing fast here, but it joins a roster of [established sports traditions](/a-locals-guide-to-tampas-sports-and-event-calendar/ "Tampa Events & Sports Calendar – Local Guide by Marina Pointe").

From our wide variety of professional teams to our elite venues and facilities, Tampa Bay is becoming a central hub for sports fans across the nation – on land, on water, and even on ice. The celebrated “Champa Bay” title came after a hometown winning streak. In less than one year (2020/2021), these victories included the Buccaneers winning Super Bowl LV, hosted in Tampa Bay, the Lightning winning the Stanley Cup, the Rays making it to the World Series, and the Rowdies playing in the USL Championship Final. As the city’s arts and culture landscape continues to grow and the real estate market gets hotter, so does the sporting industry and its community of spirited supporters. Living at Marina Pointe puts you at the epicenter of all the action! In every direction, you’re only a few miles from the liveliness. However, you can also spend game days at home with family and friends. With a state-of-the-art social room just off the pool deck, friends will be sure to bring wings and appetizers to watch any game in luxury. Check out the list below to learn more about the professional teams and sporting events hosted in Tampa Bay and throughout the state. ##### ##### Football – Not only is Florida home to three NFL teams, but The Sunshine State has also hosted the Super Bowl more times than any other state! The most recent was held at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa in 2021, where the Buccaneers were the very first NFL team to win a Super Bowl on their home field. **Home Team:** The Tampa Bay Buccaneers stadium is just 7 miles from Marina Pointe – and with the beautiful weather, attending a December game in shorts is quite the norm. **Other Teams:** The Miami Dolphins and Jacksonville Jaguars are each within driving distance or a quick flight from Tampa if you are looking for a fun weekend getaway at another stadium. ##### Hockey – Those who say Florida isn’t a hockey state have never witnessed the electricity of the Stanley Cup Final games that have taken place in Tampa the last three years in a row. With two NHL teams in Florida, there are plenty of opportunities to break out your rarely-used jacket and cool down in an arena. **Home Team:** The Tampa Bay Lightning play at Amalie Arena which is also located just 7 miles from Marina Pointe. They have made a name for themselves by making it to three Stanley Cup Championships in a row and winning two! **Other Teams:** Along with a few minor league teams sprinkled throughout the state, the Florida Panthers are the second NHL team in Florida, located on the opposite coast. ##### Baseball – Florida is home to two Major League Baseball teams, but because of the stunning weather, 15 total teams take to the fields all over the state from February until April for Spring Training. It’s practically baseball season year-round in Tampa, with plenty of chances to catch a game (and maybe even a foul ball). **Home Team:** Tropicana Field hosts the Tampa Bay Rays just shy of 16 miles from Marina Pointe. The Rays have made impressive playoff runs within the past couple of years, making it to the World Series in 2020. The New York Yankees play every spring 7.5 miles from Marina Pointe at George M. Steinbrenner Field. **Other Teams:** On the East Coast of Florida, you can find the Miami Marlins during the regular season. However, there are 7 other MLB Spring Training stadiums within a 100-mile radius of Marina Pointe. ##### Soccer – A sport that is truly loved worldwide, brings fans together in a unique way with a true sense of pride that is echoed through chants and cheers. It’s an experience that is unmatched, and attainable just a short distance from Marina Pointe. **Home Team:** Al Lang Stadium hosts the Tampa Bay Rowdies. With a stunning view of the bay from the seats and an impressive appearance in the USL Championship Final in 2021, the Rowdies are a staple team in Champa Bay. **Other Teams:** If you’re looking for fun, Florida is also home to two Major League Soccer teams in Orlando and Miami. In fact, Miami will be hosting the FIFA World Cup in 2026! ##### Racing – Do you love the thrill of fast cars and the sounds of engines roaring? Florida is home to several different types of car racing. **Home Race:** Each spring in the streets of St Petersburg, IndyCars take to the roads during the Firestone Grand Prix. This race brings excitement throughout Tampa Bay and welcomes drivers from all over the world. **Other Races:** The most notable NASCAR races in the state take place at the Daytona International Speedway and Homestead Miami Speedway. More recently, Formula 1 has introduced a new race in Maimi, bringing one of the world’s most popular motor sports into Florida for the first time. ##### Golf – By now, you probably see why the weather in Florida is perfect for major sporting events. That’s no different for Golf. The PGA Tour Valspar Championship takes place just 30 miles from Marina Pointe, while the PGA Tour Players Championship, Arnold Palmer Invitational, and QBE Shootout are all within driving distance. ##### Basketball – The *only* professional sports team missing in Tampa Bay is an NBA team. But don’t fear, if you are interested in taking to the courts for a game, the Orlando Magic and Miami Heat aren’t too far! ##### College – Florida is home to several amazing universities which means we are no strangers to large events and competitive sports. Locally, Tampa regularly hosts NCAA Basketball tournaments. In 2017, Tampa hosted the NCAA Football National Championship, and two college football Bowl games are held in Tampa annually; The RealiaQuest Bowl (formerly the Outback Bowl) and the Gasparilla Bowl. Game days in Tampa Bay look different than anywhere else. Our local teams bring the city together in a way that no one can explain, but the ups and downs and pride we feel unite us as we cheer for a win! Living at Marina Pointe, you can be as involved in the action as you want, because just outside your window pulses the energy of Champa Bay.

(BTI Partners) TAMPA, FL — Duckweed Urban Grocery Westshore, the third grocery for the Tampa-based chain, is now serving residents of the Westshore Marina District and beyond. Located at 5212 Bridge St., the new store is open from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. seven days a week. The Westshore Marina District store joins Duckweed Urban Grocery and Duckweed Liquors Channelside on 12th Street in Channelside and the original grocery store at 803 N. Tampa St., with plans to open a NOHO Square (Seminole Heights) store soon. The 3,000-square-foot boutique grocery anchors the 24,000-square-foot Marina Landings town square. BTI Vice President for Retail Development Britney Mroczkowski said it was constructed to be smaller than the traditional anchor size. “We wanted something boutique where people could walk downstairs and grab their essentials,” she said. “They are a health-conscious grocer offering a lot of the essentials with a focus on grab-and-go foods, artisanal items and a small vegan café inside. They also have a full liquor store.” Located at the intersection of Gandy Boulevard and Westshore Boulevard, the Westshore Marina District is a new master-planned community overlooking one of the largest yacht basins on Tampa Bay. Situated along 1.5 scenic miles of waterfront, green space, marina and open bay, this all-new, 52-acre development offers waterfront living, shopping, dining and recreation. In April, Fort Lauderdale-based [BTI Partners](https://btipartners.com/) celebrated a topping-off ceremony for the 17-story Marina Pointe tower featuring 113 luxury condominiums and seven Harbor Homes. When built out, there will be three condominium towers. Marina Pointe will feature state-of-the-art facilities, including 24-hour doorman/concierge, a fitness center, amenity deck overlooking the marina, resident club with entertainment room and virtual golf simulator among other amenities. Individual condo unit sizes range from 1,750 to more than 4,500 square feet and offer a variety of floor plans, ranging from two to five bedrooms. The residences are priced from the low $800,000s to more than $3 million. Renowned architect Kobi Karp designed the luxury waterfront condominium to feature expansive open-living areas with up to 10-foot ceilings, floor-to-ceiling glass walls and windows, and oversized balconies with panoramic views of Old Tampa Bay and downtown St. Pete on the horizon. Westshore Marina District will also feature several residential projects built by WCI by Lennar, The Related Group and Bainbridge, which have attracted hundreds of residents to a once-dormant waterfront. Once the master-planned community and neighboring residential projects are completed in the next several years, the area will have nearly 2,400 new residences. In addition to Duckweed Urban Grocery, Marina Landings town square is home to Cru Cellars and Sand Surf Co., with a DRNK coffee + tea and QWENCH juice bar coming soon. A boat-up dining destination will be a short stroll away from the condominiums via a waterfront promenade. The Westshore Marina District is located on a 13-acre deep-water basin, which will feature floating docks and 150 full-service slips to accommodate vessels from 40 feet in length to more than 100 feet.

Discover some tips and tricks from the experts. **Content:** ![Tower One](/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/Marina_Point_LifeStyle-36-1-scaled-1.jpg) As our owners excitedly prepare to move into their new luxury residence, many are also thinking about how they will decorate and style their waterfront oasis. Our friends at Scarboro Designs have worked on a variety of projects in the Tampa Bay area and are helping a handful of our Marina Pointe owners curate their perfect sanctuary. The talented team of nine comes with a wide range of expertise and a keen eye for design. We had the pleasure of speaking with the Scarboro team and we’re eager to share their tips and insider knowledge from company president, Jeanette Scarboro, and Senior Designer Melanie Carter. **A Passion for Interior Fashion** Melanie began her decorative career with faux painting and refinishing furniture. In real estate, she was staging homes before it was a trend and eventually went out on her own working as a kitchen and bath designer for a construction company. Jeanette started out in the corporate world where she found her sweet spot in project management. At a design firm, she gained ample experience and in 2007, launched her first company, Scarboro Designs. **Designing for Marina Pointe** Because of her construction experience, Melanie was brought on to Marina Pointe to lend her master eye toward cabinetry and closet design. Understanding the architecture and materials used at Marina Point and being a part of the Scarboro team made it an easy transition to help residents achieve their ideal look. “At Marina Pointe, they have great selections and a strong palette to start from, so we can come in and do all of the soft finishes,” says Melanie Carter. She met with a multitude of owners and helped them with everything from furniture, art, lighting, accessories, color, and material selections. **Styling a Luxury Lifestyle** “Marina Pointe is in a great location because it’s on its own peninsula on the water and it’s close to everything exciting in Tampa while also having its own lifestyle at Marina Landings,” says Melanie. When it comes to choosing your style, the Scarboro team says the sky is the limit. They agree that the beauty of Marina Pointe is the location, and they have a few favorite stylized looks that speak to the Tampa area. “Our most popular design for Marina Pointe, the Coastal Couture, has a little Chanel to it,” says Jeanette Scarboro. The coastal clean encompasses a contemporary waterfront feel with crisp whites and airy, islandly designs. The modern boho is used to open new color palettes and bring in an earthy, natural ambiance. Many residents bring artwork and pieces to inspire their design theme, while some want to start fresh. Without too many items dictating the design, it gives the team more freedom to choose cohesive elements. **What Our Owners are Loving** At Marina Pointe, everyone wants one element that sets them apart, and a big trend Scarboro Designs is seeing is the feature wall. Wallpaper is making a comeback, and wall treatments are a great way to take a bare wall and turn it into a focal point, whether you’re using art, furniture, or lighting for ambiance. “For one Marina Pointe client, we are working on a 20-foot-high feature wall with an electric fireplace,” says Jeanette. Along with fun feature walls, they’ll take the nooks and crannies that people don’t know what to do with and make them stand out. “We’re adding coffee bars and wine bars, and creating storage solutions, to turn every space into something useful and unique,” says Melanie. ![Marina Pointe Harbour Homes Terrace](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/051-Marina-Pointe-Harbour-Homes-Terrace-Interior-scaled-1.jpg) ![Marina Pointe Kitchen](/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/039-Marina-Pointe-Kitchen-scaled-1.jpg) **Marina Pointe’s Best Features** “The Earhart is one of my favorites because it’s like living in a penthouse without actually buying a penthouse,” says Melanie. Her favorite features of the Earhart residences are the “dreamy” closets that just keep going and the impressive showers with floor-to-ceiling glass granting a full view of the bay. Jeanette and Melanie both agree that the Marina Pointe kitchens are spectacular with modern features including Wolfe appliances with integrated panels, functional open shelving, and full backsplashes that blend into the countertop complete with a waterfall edge. Their third favorite feature are the great rooms that extend out to the balconies. “I think that is such a great, cohesive gathering area,” says Jeanette. And of course, they can’t forget about our magnificent verandas.

Home shoppers know it. Tampa is one of the best cities to live in. Tampa was listed by Zillow as 2022’s hottest market, beating other major cities including Phoenix, Arizona, and Austin, Texas. Avoid bidding wars and find a home you can make your own by following these tips below. **Content:** ![Marina Pointe Tampa Bay](/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/MicrosoftTeams-image-13-1024x538.png) We know it. Home shoppers know it. Tampa is one of the best cities to live in. Tampa was listed by Zillow as 2022’s hottest market, beating other major cities including Phoenix, Arizona, and Austin, Texas. For Tampa natives, they knew it was only a matter of time before people discovered the dazzling appeal of this hidden gem. The city has seen impressive developments, substantial growth, and in turn, a consistent rise in property value that continues to draw attention. According to the [Tampa Bay Business Journal,](https://www.bizjournals.com/tampabay/news/2022/07/21/tampa-ranks-highly-for-places-to-relocate.html) Tampa has quickly jumped into second place as the most popular relocation destination, attracting out-of-state home buyers who realize they can get more for their money in Florida. Because of increasing excitement and competition, finding and securing your dream home in Tampa can be a challenge. Avoid bidding wars and find a home you can make your own by following these tips below. Check out the 5 reasons why you should buy a preconstruction home in Tampa Bay. **1. Buying Early Means the Best Selection** In preconstruction, the early birds get the best prices and the best residences. When you buy early in a newly built community, you have more variety to choose from in terms of floorplans and features. At Marina Pointe, buying early means not only will you have first pick of our luxury residences and layouts, but you’ll also get first choice of the best panoramic city and water views this side of Tampa. You’ll also have your first pick of one of our newly constructed, private boat docks at an unbeatable price. In this case, first is best. **2. Great Value, Great Investment** Preconstruction homes behave very similarly to the future markets. If you buy at today’s price in an area that is continuing to develop, especially in the upcoming Tampa market, your purchase will most likely appreciate in the future, giving a greater return on your investment. **3. Locking in a New Home in a Hot Market** Because preconstruction homes are in the development stage, they typically have a fixed price. With resale homes, builders can bloat prices to pit buyers against each other and ramp up the demand. Avoid heated bidding wars, multiple offer situations, and competitive price influxes by buying preconstruction. Skip the haggling and spend more time planning your new life and saving a little extra money while your home is being completed. **4. The Latest and Greatest Design** As opposed to a resale home, you’ll be getting the latest and greatest in architectural trends and, if you’re interested in a private community lifestyle, you’ll have the advantage of state-of-the-art amenities and added security. When the Marina Pointe development is complete, three glorious towers unlike anything else in the area will rise elegantly above the waves overlooking the city of Tampa Bay, with final touches currently being made to Tower One. **5. Less Hassle, More of What You Want** New homes are untouched; they are a blank canvas to make completely your own. Go to sleep with peace of mind knowing your home has only ever been yours. You’ll never have to rip up offensive carpeting or replace outdated kitchen appliances. You’ll also have more time to plan your customizations and establish décor or take advantage of our many amenities. Marina Pointe has the best coastal luxuries including heated pools, private boat slips, a private massage studio, an indoor golf simulator, and more. If you’re interested in moving into luxury this year, limited residences remain in [Tower One](/residence/tower/) or learn more about [Tower Two](/residence/tower-two/) and plan for the future. You can make Tampa your coastal playground at Marina Pointe.

Upon moving to Tampa, Louisiana transplant Cliffe Laborde wanted a condo — and a boat slip. “There’s nothing like waking up — and I’m going to do it Wednesday — at 5:30 in the morning, and then hitting the elevator and going downstairs,” Laborde said in an August interview, “and we’ll run 15 minutes from here and slay the snook and the redfish and speckled trout in season. It’s unbelievable. And be back here at 10:45.” As the number of boats increases and the availability of marina slips shrinks, developers with boat slips have an in-demand amenity. BTI Partners’ Marina Pointe in Tampa had what Laborde wanted in its 159-slip deepwater marina. Marina Pointe executive director Dominic Pickering says marina slips are “a significant differentiator” in the luxury condo market. “The marina has become a central part of the community,” he says of Marina Pointe, “not only for owners with boats, but also for those who don’t own one. People love to have views of water in all directions, and the added attraction of being able to cruise out on a boat with neighbors and friends adds a special dimension to the lifestyle at Marina Pointe.” Laborde, a lawyer and lifelong boater, moved to Florida in 2020, reunited with his Georgetown University college sweetheart, Kerry Kennan Bean, and got engaged. The two are now married. “I’m the luckiest man in the world because I don’t deserve her. You can put that in the article,” he says. Laborde wanted a condo after years of looking after a big house. “And I wanted some place that had a slip,” he says. “Several people smarter than I said, ‘If there are boat slips, buy one. You won’t regret it.’ And I mean, I’m talking about people from Martha’s Vineyard to Boston to Chesapeake Bay to Louisiana.” Laborde, who co-owns a 52-foot cruiser, took possession of his condo and 65-foot slip in July 2023. The Hillsborough County property appraiser values the slip at $81,250. “I don’t regret it, because they’re going to run out of slips here. They’re going to have more residents than slips,” Laborde says. “If I end up not using it, I will end up selling it at a premium.” **Categories:** Blog --- ### [DIVING INTO PRECONSTRUCTION](https://marinapointe.com/diving-into-preconstruction/) **Published:** November 7, 2024 **Author:** Phillip **Content:** ### Marina Pointe Towers II + III will soon rise in the Westshore Marina District. ![Aerial view of Marina Pointe showcasing luxury waterfront condos for sale in Tampa's Westshore Marina District, featuring modern architecture, deepwater marina access, and resort-style amenities.](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Marina-Pointe_Birdseye-1@2x-scaled.webp) ### **UNLOCK PARADISE** Enjoy elevated Gulf Coast living at its finest.

Imagine living within a 15-minute walk or bike ride from everything you need in a day. This is the future of many of Tampa’s hottest developments. “Mini cities” are emerging from the ground. They’re part of a national trend creating taller, denser neighborhoods that blend home, office, restaurants, shops and entertainment all into one master-planned community. And it’s a concept that looks good on Tampa. Compact, mixed-use developments give people more time doing what they want and less time fighting traffic. It’s the next level of quality of life, and it redefines and challenges what a community could be. Tampa has several major city-within-a-city developments in the works, including Water Street Tampa, The Heights, Westshore Marina District, Midtown Tampa and Gas Worx. “They all create their own sense of place,” says Vince Chillura, first senior vice president of commercial real estate for Valley National Bank, involved in all five of those communities. “Every project has its own mojo.” Key players have realized the potential of these previously underutilized, vacant or blighted pockets of Tampa, transforming them into something special while better connecting the city and elevating its status. “When you string interconnected neighborhoods, it creates this super cool place to be that allows Tampa to be competitive with the Austin, the Nashville,” says Darryl Shaw, owner of Ybor City’s Gas Worx development. Local experts share their takes on Tampa’s current state of commercial real estate, as well as their forecasts and major project updates. **A Transformation** Seasoned Tampa natives and longtime area developers are quick to admit that Tampa wasn’t always the commercial real estate hotbed it is today. Tampa has grown and changed significantly in its 172 years, with riverfront development being prioritized the past 20 years, accelerating an avalanche of other recent developments. Just five years ago, the Riverwalk trail reached substantial completion. Tampa used to rely on back-office jobs and call centers. Now new startups and companies are launching with enough support and resources to sustain them. Shopping centers have been reinvented from malls and grocery-anchored centers to outdoor concepts centered around neighborhoods, such as SoHo and Hyde Park Village. “The right type of development is happening in Tampa,” says Chillura, whose team had its best year ever. “We have a lot of momentum here — the right types of projects and smart people.” Many longtime or native Tampanians describe the city’s change as night and day, and as happening nearly overnight. “The city has transformed and is unrecognizable from the Tampa of my youth in a fantastic way,” says Lee Schaffler, chief portfolio officer at Strategic Property Partners, the developer of Water Street Tampa, a joint venture between investor and Tampa Bay Lightning owner Jeff Vinik and Bill Gates’ Cascade Investment to create 56-acre mixed-use development downtown. The budding art and culture scene, job growth, in-migration, an expanding airport, major (winning!) sports teams, coveted weather, waterfront living and low taxes also add to the mix. “This package of elements will continue to be a driver for Tampa and it will be recognized as a leading market,” says Noah Breakstone, managing partner and CEO of BTI Partners and master developer of the Westshore Marina District. “It’s an exciting time. It’s only going to continue to accelerate.” Several experts credited the City of Tampa and Hillsborough County for helping lay the foundation for success with their visionary leadership, business friendliness and strong partnerships. “The Tampa Bay real estate market is on fire,” says Andrew Wright, CEO of Franklin Street and managing partner with Ally Capital Group, implementing a $20-million office and retail center in the Westshore Business District. Tampa delivered about 1.8 million square feet of office space in the 12 months from September 2020 through August, with another 375,000 square feet currently under construction, Wright says. “All of this new inventory marks a huge shift for our office market after a long period of little office development,” Wright says. “Tampa has long lacked the large blocks of Class A office space needed to attract major companies, but we’re now seeing more deals with international names, like Pfizer, which is opening a 100,000-square-foot business hub in Tampa Heights, as well as numerous tech companies, like ID.me, which are helping put Tampa on the map as a tech center.” Case in point, Forbes just named Tampa the No. 1 Emerging Tech City in the U.S. “Multifamily development also continues to move forward at a rapid pace,” Wright says. Tampa Bay gained 7,726 apartment units in the 12 months from September 2020 to August, with another 7,891 units currently underway, Wright says. “However, despite all this new construction, demand is still significantly outweighing supply, as people continue migrating to our area from New York, California and other higher-density areas,” Wright says. “Although apartment rents are up 20% for some submarkets and product types, which is a result of both increased construction costs and the high demand, units are being quickly absorbed and the rental market remains extremely competitive.” Quite simply, Tampa is having its moment. “The market itself right now is very active and very hot,” Shaw says. “We stay at or close to 100% leased in our residential units in Ybor. We have a wait list.” Nick Haines, CEO at The Bromley Companies, the master developer of 23-acre, mixed-use Midtown Tampa, concurs. “Tampa’s a core market for us and there’s never been a more exciting time.” **Turning Heads** Clearly, when it comes to commercial real estate and development in Tampa, the city has already arrived. But it’s on the verge of no longer being the best-kept secret. Local developers are getting inquiries from major national and global investors and companies like never before. “National restaurants are clamoring,” says Schaffler, a year into Water Street Tampa’s lease of restaurants. “National retailers want to be first to market here. Tampa is on the map. There are large institutional investor groups showing interest in Tampa that have never been on the radar.” Doug Badia, principal at Pure Properties Group, a partner in The Heights development, has had a similar experience. “Not a week goes by that we’re not getting multiple out-of-state inquiries regarding retail, restaurant and/or office,” Badia says. “It’s one of the most exciting cities in the U.S. to develop right now,” Haines says. “There’s really nowhere else in the U.S. I’d rather be developing a $500 million project.” **Strong Forecast** Experts share overwhelmingly positive projections about the future of commercial real estate and development in Tampa. “Tampa’s best days are really ahead of it,” Haines says. “We’re in the early innings of significant growth for the city.” Schaffler agrees, predicting that growth, in-migration and demand drivers will continue. “Between our relentless population growth, strong economy and stable employment market, Tampa Bay’s commercial real estate market is in a very healthy position,” Wright says. Of course, there are some challenges to pay attention to, like inflation creating supply chain issues for construction materials, causing project delays. “While there are many ripe opportunities out there in the Tampa Bay commercial real estate market, investors and occupiers should plan to work some flexibility into their strategies,” Wright says. Chillura emphasizes the importance of continued good leadership and thoughtful planning to prevent overbuilding. Haines also cautions that Tampa needs to continue to make progress with affordable housing “so growth doesn’t make the city unlivable.” Heron opened in March with 420 apartments in two towers; Publix’s GreenWise Market opened in August at Heron’s base. **In the Works** Water Street Tampa Arguably Tampa’s most ambitious current project at $3.5 billion, Water Street Tampa is a walkable, urban community with 10 projects totaling 9 million square feet on 56 acres in the downtown waterfront area surrounding Amalie Arena. “The scale of the project is unparalleled,” Schaffler says. “Only a handful of groups in the world would have the capacity to build 10 buildings at once.” It includes 3,500 new rental and for-sale residences (including the city’s first hotel-branded residences), 1 million square feet of retail and cultural spaces (including Publix Greenwise Market, which opened in August; and Sparkman Wharf, which opened in 2018 at 65,000 square feet of retail), 2 million square feet of new office space, including Tampa’s first trophy office tower in nearly 30 years; 692 new and 727 renovated hotel rooms, (including The Tampa EDITION, the city’s first five-star hotel, planned to open in early 2022. Water Street Tampa will be home to the largest collection of hotel rooms and meeting spaces in the Tampa Bay area.); and 13 acres of new public green space and a brand-new street grid. Construction on the first phase is planned for completion by the end of the first quarter of 2022. Phase 1 of retail is over 90% committed within a little over a year; every building has active ground-floor retail. Of note, Water Street is the first neighborhood in the world to receive an International WELL Building Institute certification. Through SPP, Water Street is backed by Vinik, who bought the Tampa Bay Lightning in 2010, realized how underutilized the area surrounding their stadium was, and partnered with Cascade Investment (controlled by Gates) to make something special of it. Water Street fills the gaps between several other active pockets of Tampa. “We connected Channelside to the CDBG to Harbour Island and on and on,” Schaffler says. “There was this giant missing connection between them. Our project filled that in and became the connection point. We’re the hole in the doughnut.” In August, cybersecurity leader ReliaQuest announced plans to relocate its corporate headquarters to 120,000 square feet of Thousand & One, Water Street’s flagship office building, signaling Tampa’s growing tech industry. Also unique are the project’s wide (up to 45-foot) pedestrian pathways, which Schaffler describes as most of the project’s intellectual capital. “The No. 1 thing is our sidewalks,” Schaffler says. “We are in the midst of creating one of the grand pedestrian avenues of the U.S. and the world.” The Heights District is shaping up to be a dense, urban waterfront community connected to downtown. **The Heights** Tampa’s first suburb, The Heights, is undergoing a major makeover. Located just north of downtown, the 50-acre modernized mixed-use neighborhood along the river is seeing tremendous activity. In 2018, Armature Works opened as a 73,000 square-foot, mixed-use property, housing an event center, office space, market and several full-service restaurants such as Steelbach, Oak & Ola and M. Bird. This was followed in 2019 by The PEARL, the first luxury apartments in The Heights, including 314 residential units and 28,500 square feet of street-level commercial space. Merchants include Rocca Italian, Strand Hill Public, Xochitl Mexican, Frenchies Nails, Rejuv Salon, Jeni’s Ice Cream. The 2020 expansion of The Heights delivered the Heights Union, comprising two 150,000-square foot luxury Class-A office buildings, which include major tenants such as Pfizer and Axogen. Most recently, Sprouts Farmers Market announced that it will open this fall. To date, small shops, street-level merchants following Sprouts include Truist Bank, Escapology, and F45 Training. “Our primary focus continues to be working with Chas Bruck, Adam Harden and the team at Soho Capital to further evolve The Heights District into a dense, urban, super-regional mixed-use waterfront neighborhood, connected to Downtown Tampa,” Pure Properties Group’s Badia says. Additional phases are anticipated to be completed within about two years. It will continue to expand into Seminole Heights and Downtown, filling in the gaps. “The Heights was somewhat of a blighted area and after the group’s conscious efforts, it became something special very quickly,” Chillura says. “They were so wildly successful in the first phase. There clearly is a demand.” Westshore Marina District is a nearly complete $700-million project transforming an industrial boat yard into a 52-acre mixed-use community. Pictured, Marina Pointe condos include a private marina and are under construction with an expected opening next summer. **Westshore Marina District** A former industrial boat yard in South Tampa has become a thriving, 52-acre mixed-use amenity-rich community at the intersection of Gandy and West Shore boulevards with 1.5 miles of bay front. Ten years in the making, the $700,000 project broke ground in 2017 and opened in phases starting in 2018. Today, the district nearly is complete. Marina Landings, the town center, is almost 20,000 square feet of service-oriented retail, including Crave spa, Cru cellars and Duckweed Urban Grocer, with celebrity chef Fabio Viviani’s second Chuck Lager America’s Tavern opening soon. The marina is another a focal point, which also offers urban trails and parks with public art. As for residential there are currently under 1,000 homes. Marina Pointe luxury condos are under construction with the first residents slated to move in next summer. The condos offer direct access to the water and include a private marina. Other residential projects are in the works as well, with two multifamily communities completed — Bainbridge and the Town by Related Group. WCI/Lennar already completed a majority of its townhome community. The district sets itself apart as a quieter, more tranquil community with easy access to Downtown Tampa, the airport and St. Petersburg. “Our focus is combining residential and commercial development to bring quality of life and peace to the people living in the community,” Breakstone says. Midtown Tampa’s 23 acres of mixed-use development will have retail, Class A office space, residences, lakeside trails, a town center and a dog park. Pictured, Aloft and Element, among Tampa’s first dual-branded hotels, offer 230 rooms and a shared rooftop lounge and pool. **Midtown Tampa** In the middle of it all, 23-acre Midtown Tampa, acquired over about 20 years, is wrapping up 1.8 million square feet of construction at the intersection of Dale Mabry and I-275. It will have 28 retailers, with about a third of those already open and construction being wrapped up, as well as 225,000 square feet of Class A office space, a hotel, residences, lakeside trails, a town center and a dog park. REI Co-op opened in March with 23,000 square feet of outdoor gear. Joffrey’s Coffee & Tea opened in August, the area’s largest Whole Food Market opened in July, and Tampa’s first Shake Shack opened in June. “We saw lines down the streets on opening day,” Haines said. “People are so hungry for these concepts.” The Sal Y Mar hotel rooftop bar and lounge opened in February, offering panoramic city views, and 390 apartments opened in spring and were about 54% occupied and 74% leased as of early September. The 50-acre mixed-use Gas Worx district plans to fill in the gap between South Ybor and Downtown’s Channel District. Pictured, Casa Gómez is planned as a retail and office property featuring a rooftop restaurant and bar overlooking the Ybor City Historic District. **Gas Worx** It may not be in the spotlight yet due to its infancy, but Chillura says the 50-acre mixed-use Gas Worx district might be Tampa’s most important development. Filling the gap between South Ybor and Downtown’s Channel District, the project also connects to The Heights. Gas Worx is a working name inspired by the original gas works plant on the site, founded in 1895 by the Tampa Gas Company. The company constructed an iconic gas tank, several stories high, on their property at 13th Street and 1st Avenue (today’s Channelside Drive and Adamo Drive). Since 2014, Shaw has been assembling land for the project. He partnered with Kettler to plan 3 million to 5 million square feet of development, proposing nearly 5,000 apartments, over 500,000 square feet of office and 140,000 square feet of retail. They met with planners, submitted for zoning and hope to start construction around the second quarter of 2022. Tampa Park Apartments is planned to be the first project to come out of the ground with 724 units and 20,000 square feet of retail. From there, Shaw sees focusing on development block by block. To boost the area’s inventory of green space, he envisions replacing the roundabout with a large public park and straightening 4th Avenue. Construction was planned to begin this month on a dog park and cafe on 4th Avenue and 18th Street. Plans also are in the works for a pedestrian trail to connect to Water Street and Riverwalk. Shaw hopes to capitalize on Ybor’s existing rhythmic layout, walkability and proximity to all the interstates to help expand its offerings and see improved transportation. Shaw is keen on preserving the history and cultivating a diverse, thriving community. “It’s always been, ‘When’s Ybor really going to boom?’ Shaw says. “I think the key to achieving that is getting a lot more people living in the district.” Creating more workforce housing will be paramount, he says. Shaw’s already completed several renovations, including the former Buchman Department Store to retail and residences, and the old Oliva Cigar Factory into residential; and Pedroso’s change to a restaurant, brewery and 33 residential units should be completed this fall.

This milestone will allow condo buyers to move into their new homes in the sky in the second half of 2022. ![](/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/BB1groNw.img_.png) *© BTI Partners The high-rise tower will be home to 113 luxury condominiums and seven Harbor Homes with views of Tampa Bay and the St. Pete skyline.* Fort Lauderdale-based [BTI Partners](https://btipartners.com/) completed construction of the roof of the tower almost a year after the official groundbreaking in February 2020. The luxury water-inspired high rise was designed to transform South Tampa’s urban living. “Our first tower’s top-off is an important milestone not only for Marina Pointe, but also for the Tampa luxury residential market,” said BTI Partners CEO Noah Breakstone. “Marina Pointe is the embodiment of Tampa’s waterfront lifestyle, and that’s what is attracting our purchasers to the Westshore Marina District. Inspired by the beauty of the bay, Marina Pointe’s contemporary design will remind owners every day how fortunate they are to live on the water in the majestic Tampa-St. Pete area of Florida.” On April 26, general contractor Plaza Construction poured the roof of the 17-story building, which is the first of three towers. The high-rise tower will be home to 113 luxury condominiums and seven Harbor Homes with views of Tampa Bay and the St. Pete skyline. Marina Pointe is located off Westshore and Gandy boulevards on Old Tampa Bay across from St. Petersburg and easily accessible from the new Selmon Expressway Extension. “Plaza is proud to provide its expertise in high-quality construction to Marina Pointe, contributing to the growth of Tampa’s high-rise residential real estate market,” said Plaza Construction Managing Director for Central Florida Todd Fultz. “We look forward to bringing the nautical-inspired design of the building to life in this first phase.” Marina Pointe is helping bring some relief to Tampa’s low-inventory housing market. According to Florida Realtors, the Tampa Bay area’s estimated months’ supply of housing inventory is below one month. Marina Pointe will feature state-of-the-art facilities, including 24-hour doorman/concierge, a fitness center, amenity deck overlooking the marina, resident club with entertainment room and virtual golf simulator among other amenities. Individual condo unit sizes range from 1,750 to more than 4,500 square feet and offer a variety of floor plans, ranging from two to five bedrooms. The residences are priced from the low $800,000s to more than $3 million. Finding inspiration in the views of the bay, renowned architect Kobi Karp designed the luxury waterfront condominium to feature expansive open-living areas with up to 10-foot ceilings, floor-to-ceiling glass walls and windows, and oversized balconies with panoramic views of Old Tampa Bay and downtown St. Pete on the horizon. Marina Pointe is in the heart of Westshore Marina District, South Tampa’s premier walkable community along Tampa Bay. The award-winning district invites residents to stroll along waterfront trails with unobstructed views of St. Pete. Designed to offer a new quality of life, the Marina Pointe experience features access to an array of amenities, including specialty shops, waterfront restaurants, 1.5 miles of urban trails and parks lined with public art, outdoor lifestyle programming, access to water sports and a new, deep-water marina. Westshore Marina District is also home to several residential projects built by WCI by Lennar, The Related Group and Bainbridge, which have attracted hundreds of residents to a once-dormant waterfront. Once the master-planned community and neighboring residential projects are completed in the next several years, the area will have nearly 2,400 new residences. Some of the first retail tenants opening at the Westshore Marina District’s 70,000-square-foot town center include: Duckweed Urban Market, Sand Surf Co., Cru Cellars, Crave Spa, Salon Color Bar, DRNK coffee + tea and QWENCH juice bar. **Categories:** Blog --- ### [SOUTH TAMPA’S WESTSHORE MARINA DISTRICT TO HOST MONTHLY FRESH MARKET](https://marinapointe.com/south-tampas-westshore-marina-district-to-host-monthly-fresh-market/) **Published:** May 3, 2022 **Author:** Phillip **Excerpt:** As South Tampa continues to transform into a thriving community, Westshore Marina District is pleased to announce the Summer Night Exchange, a monthly fresh market featuring over 30 unique local vendors. **Content:** ![](/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/summerv2-768x432.jpg) As South Tampa continues to transform into a thriving community, Westshore Marina District is pleased to announce the Summer Night Exchange, a monthly fresh market featuring over 30 unique local vendors. Scheduled to kick off on May 4, from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m., the Summer Night Exchange will be held in the walkable 52-acre mixed-use community along Tampa Bay on the first Wednesday of each month throughout the summer. Fort Lauderdale-based [BTI Partners](http://btipartners.com/), the developer of Westshore Marina District, invites the community to experience firsthand the waterfront lifestyle the District has to offer. Under rows of twinkling market lights just east of the Westshore Marina District roundabout, the wide array of vendors will include those selling fresh produce, prepared take-home foods, locally-made arts and crafts, fair trade goods and more. The market will also feature wine sampling, a variety of food trucks and live music. “The Summer Night Exchange highlights BTI Partners’ commitment to building communities through the establishment of experiential lifestyle programming,” said Dominic Pickering, Executive Director, West Coast Florida for BTI Partners. “We are proud to be the conduit bringing people together to enjoy the reimagined, vibrant District that was designed with the community in mind.” The Summer Night Exchange is sponsored by Westshore Marina District’s Marina Pointe, Town Westshore and Tampa Bay Markets. Westshore Marina District, situated along 1.5 scenic miles of bayfront, is home to BTI Partners’ luxury high-rise condominiums, called Marina Pointe, and Marina Landings, a 70,000-square-foot town center with shops and restaurants, all within walking distance. As a Marina Landings tenant and the host of monthly “Cellar Tasting” and “Wine Wednesday” events, Cru Cellars will offer wine sampling at the Summer Night Market. Their on-site wine restaurant features a 2000-bottle wine cellar with a curated bottle list. Cru Cellars’ Westshore Marina District location boasts a delicious dinner menu with award-winning dishes, a brand-new craft cocktail menu, and a selection of curated wines.

Westshore Marina District has already hosted a variety of successful community events such as jazz strolls, yoga and “yappy hours.” The Summer Night Exchange is expected to be one of many more community-centric lifestyle programs designed to offer a more exciting quality of life as the neighborhood comes alive at Westshore Marina District. The new lifestyle programming comes as construction on Marina Pointe’s first tower, consisting of 120 condominium residences, is nearing completion. The lavish condos are priced ranging from the $1,000,000’s to over $3 million with only 4 residences remaining and a tower two release to be announced soon. Once BTI Partners’ development and neighboring residential projects are completed, the area will have nearly 2,400 new residences, revitalizing the South Tampa waterfront.

Today, it is a thriving community with high-end apartments, townhomes and a bayview condo tower well underway. In the cute town center, you can get your hair styled, buy a swimsuit and dine on tuna tartare and truffle fries. The Westshore Marina District is one of three new planned communities that have sprung up in Tampa — the others are Midtown on Cypress Street just off Interstate 275 and the huge Water Street development south of downtown. While the pandemic initially was expected to drive people out of cities and into the suburbs, it has only accelerated the trend toward walkable live-work-play areas where the full range of urban amenities is close at hand. Unlike Midtown and Water Street, the marina district does not have any office buildings, but it is only 10 minutes from the West Shore business district and is a short trip across the Gandy Bridge to Raymond James, Jabil and other major employers. And district residents working from home can do so in a setting that includes landscaped walkways, small lakes and soon a 1.5-mile waterfront park. “It’s our local neighborhood with a gorgeous lifestyle,” says Rikki Radkay, who with sister Remy opened the first store in the district last spring.

BTI Partners, based in Fort Lauderdale, is the master developer of the district. BTI is also developing three condo towers within the district as well as the retail space. After selling off several tracts to residential builders and seeing high demand for its own condos, BTI shifted its focus to the retail portion of the district in June. Just back from the International Council of Shopping Centers’ statewide meeting in Orlando — an annual gathering of retail real estate professionals — BeckDaniel, executive vice president of development for BTI, shared an update on the project with the Tampa Bay Business Journal. The district’s town center includes 22,050 square feet of retail; a waterfront parcel fronting Gandy Boulevard can accommodate a 10,000-square-foot restaurant. The ground floor of the first condo tower, Marina Pointe, has 10,000 square feet of retail, and another parcel, along Gandy Boulevard, will be home to 15,000 square feet of retail and office space. The multilevel, potentially dual concept waterfront restaurant could be among the first tenants announced, Daniel said.

The new Cru Cellars opened last week in the Westshore Marina District in Tampa. Billed as a “wine restaurant,” Cru Westshore Marina is currently serving coffee and pastries in the morning and dinner Tuesdays through Sundays, with eventual plans to add brunch and lunch. \[ CHRIS URSO | Times \] TAMPA — For the past decade, Cru Cellars in Palma Ceia has been the go-to spot for both approachable and more obscure wine finds in South Tampa. Now, owner and wine enthusiast Jennifer Bingham has opened a new and ambitious sister concept in the Westshore Marina District, the first of several restaurant projects planned for the sprawling mixed-use development. The new Cru Westshore Marina, at 5232 Bridge St., marks a big moment both for Bingham’s team, which also operates a small offshoot inside the Heights Public Market at Armature Works, and for other retailers at the development. The project’s developers, BTI Partners, have pitched the residential and commercial hub near the intersection of Gandy and West Shore boulevards in Tampa as a walkable neighborhood that will attract both residents as well as visitors to the area. Cru’s opening last week appears poised to draw the biggest crowd yet. For Bingham, it’s a big step in what is shaping up to be a busy year. Along with planning the Westshore Marina launch, the local wine pro has been busy hatching designs for Bouzy, a new Champagne and cocktail bar slated to open this fall in Hyde Park Village. “I’m slightly crazy to be growing right now,” Bingham said. “But Tampa is really growing and I feel really lucky to have 11 years of experience behind me for this.” ![](/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/ONKTHN2PIVBB7OHVKPTCQP6O2M.jpg) Cru Westshore Marina in Tampa features an outdoor patio with seating for roughly 50 people and a dining room that can seat another 65. \[ CHRIS URSO | Times \] Unlike the Palma Ceia flagship, which is both a wine bar and retail shop, Bingham said her newest spot is more of a “wine restaurant,” with an everyday vibe where diners can stop in for an afternoon snack and a glass of wine as well as linger over a more upscale dinner later in the evening. The restaurant is open for coffee and pastries in the morning and will eventually serve lunch, brunch and dinner. For now, it’s just open for breakfast and dinner. And though the focus has shifted from its predecessor to include more food, Bingham said wine is still very much at the heart of the operation, evidenced by the restaurant’s massive wine inventory, which includes roughly 2,000 bottles. The light and airy 2,400-square-foot space is outfitted in mostly white decor, including plush banquettes and cozy booths, with seating for roughly 65 people. A long bar anchoring the space is decorated with bright blue tiles, a nod to the nearby marina. Outside, a large patio features seating for another 45 to 50 people. In the back of the restaurant, a floor-to-ceiling wine cellar overlooks the space. Bingham said keeping the list approachable was important, and while there are several high-end selections, more than half the 260-bottle list features choices under $100. ![](/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/RG5P5TOZGBARZMF5KDGIHRKWQI.jpg) The wine cellar at Cru Westshore Marina in Tampa features an inventory of roughly 2,000 bottles. \[ CHRIS URSO | Times \] Helming the kitchen is executive chef Zack Sylvester, who was hired at the Palma Ceia location shortly before the pandemic began. The menu at the new restaurant is similar to the one at the flagship location — yes, there are truffle fries and cheese and charcuterie farmer’s platters — but the list also features a larger selection of “marina-inspired” dishes (fish and seafood) as well as a collection of pizzas. Appetizers and salads on the opening menu include a dish of littleneck clams served in a hickory fumet with roasted fennel, shallots and Pernod cream with crostini ($19); a gulf yellowfin tartare with chili oil, ginger soy reduction, pickled jalapenos, avocado and wonton chips ($21); and a chard and kale Caesar salad paired with a Scotch egg ($12). Pizzas include a classic Margherita, topped with tarragon, heirloom tomatoes, burrata and basil ($15); and a pepperoni, capocollo and chorizo pie topped with Beecher’s Dulcet cheese, mozzarella and Grana Padano ($17). ![](/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/U652J3A6GRGYTHBIGNIB7QU6OQ.jpg) Barista Chris Assed, 35, prepares a latte at Cru Westshore Marina in Tampa. \[ CHRIS URSO | Times \] Larger, entree-style dishes include an Australian Angus filet mignon served with maque choux, smoked pork belly and bearnaise ($38); a fenugreek-crusted Faroe Island salmon with hickory clam fumet, charred apples, fennel, frisee and Pernod cream ($27); and a steak sandwich topped with bearnaise, Gruyere, tomatoes and butter lettuce on a Sullivan Street Bakery roll served with fries ($18). To help run the wine program, Bingham tapped sommeliers Kristen Lee and Julian Mayor, who helped curate the list and on busier nights will both be working the dining room to assist customers with their selections. Building on the Palma Ceia shop’s reputation, the list at the new restaurant will feature a selection of both natural and classic small-production wines from all over the world, Bingham said. ![](/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/U7YHD2MPMFDMTE3I4DZO6SHJRY.jpg) The bottle list at Cru Westshore Marina in Tampa features 260 wines, half of which are under $100. \[ CHRIS URSO | Times \] Bingham acknowledged that opening an upscale, wine-focused restaurant might sound a little ambitious following a rough year for restaurants, but she’s optimistic that Tampa Bay is ready for more. “As restaurants reopen around the country, many are hesitant to bring back their large wine lists and floor sommeliers,” she said in an email. “Cru is enthusiastic.” Cru Westshore Marina, 5232 Bridge St., Tampa, is currently open Tuesday through Sunday starting at 7 a.m. for coffee, pastries and retail. Dinner is served from 4 p.m. to close. 813-515-5817.

Price, speed, style and use are all significant considerations that have to be taken into account before you even set foot in a boatyard or a broker’s office… fortunately, we’ve created a simple guide with highlights to keep in mind as you consider buying a yacht. Marina Pointe represents the ultimate waterfront residential opportunity for luxury yacht owners, offering an impressive selection of contemporary condominiums overlooking the largest and only new deepwater marina currently under construction on Florida’s West Coast. The 150-slip marina is available exclusively to residents and can accommodate vessels from 40 feet to 90 feet in length, providing unobstructed access to Tampa Bay and the Gulf of Mexico. Browse to read our basic guide for avid boaters (or hobbyists) looking to purchase their first luxury yacht and experience Tampa’s [premier yachting lifestyle](/marina-pointe-the-ultimate-destination-for-luxury-boating/) at Marina Pointe. ##### **Defining a Yacht** A yacht can be generally defined as any luxury recreational watercraft over 35 feet – yachts typically feature a comfortable interior with at least one cabin, bathroom, a galley (kitchen) and a saloon (seating area). Outside of the United States, these vessels are further qualified as either sailing or motor yachts depending on the method of propulsion. When it comes to differentiating yachts vs boats, one usually considers that a yacht is larger and more luxurious than a boat and includes more amenities. “Boat” is a much broader, colloquial term that can be used to describe anything from a police boat to a personal fishing craft. ##### **Style and Size in Yacht Buying** Before your search for a yacht begins, it’s important to define what kind of vessel you’re looking for and how you anticipate using it. Yacht sizes range from sleek 35-40 feet to a sprawling 200 feet or more, which is a broad size spectrum that can be further broken down into regular yachts and superyachts (any yacht over 100 feet). Speed and style are also key considerations – are you seeking [leisurely Sunday cruises around Tampa Bay](/%e2%80%8b17-dock-dine-restaurants-for-tampa-bay-boaters/) with family and friends or do you need something with a little more stamina and horsepower for long-distance solo voyages? And are you interested in a luxury yacht brand with a classic nautical appearance, like Hinckley or Hunt, or are you seeking a vessel with the smooth ultramodern lines of a Princess or Viking? ##### **Enlist a Yacht Broker** There are a lot of decisions to make when it comes to buying a yacht and much like working with a real estate broker to purchase a home, getting help from a professional, respected yacht broker can really streamline the yacht buying process. A broker will evaluate your requirements, including price and size, and can even help determine your yachting style. They’ll compare different yacht makes and models – new or pre-owned – and review the advantages of each, set up yacht showings, and arrange sea trials. Marina Pointe residents who are interested in buying a new or pre-owned yacht will have easy access to local yacht brokers, thanks to Marina Pointe’s convenient location just moments away from the downtowns of both Tampa and St. Pete. These broker showrooms typically showcase an impressive selection of the best yachts to buy, including Viking, Princess, Prestige, Cruisers and Maritimo Yachts. ##### **Cruise into Tampa’s Premier Yachting Address** Experience a luxury yachting lifestyle unlike any other in Marina Pointe’s new luxury condominiums, ideally situated on the shores of Tampa Bay overlooking an all-new [marina](/the-marina/) with slips available exclusively for owners.

When owners purchase one of the [marina’s 150 slips](/the-marina/), they enjoy unobstructed access to the sparkling waters of Tampa Bay as well as a full complement of on-site concierge boat services and boat maintenance. ##### **Marina Concierge Services** Marina concierge services are designed to anticipate residents’ needs and enhance their on-the-water lifestyle. A marina concierge ensures every boat or yacht is carefully serviced, detailed and prepared for launch by the time the owner is ready to set sail. They can also provision each vessel with food, drinks and fuel. **Overview of traditional marina concierge services:** - Fuel - Detailing - Service - Maintenance - Food and Beverage All yacht concierge services will be provided by an exclusive and expert retailer, who will soon be announced. ##### **Boat Maintenance** As part of the concierge experience, Marina Pointe residents’ boats and yachts will receive standard maintenance and launch prep. Vessels 40 feet or larger tend to sit in water full-time and require regular care and upkeep, particularly in corrosive saltwater environments. **Basic boat maintenance includes the following:** ##### **General Washing and Cleaning** All visible elements on the exterior of the yachts should generally be washed and cleaned every 2-4 weeks. A thorough exterior cleaning ranges from removing canvas covers and wiping down upholstery to polishing metal fixtures and scrubbing woodwork. Interior cleanings involve dusting, cleaning countertops, toilets, sinks and more. ##### **Underwater Cleaning** Manufacturers recommend having the bottom of a boat or yacht cleaned once a month, but owners may want to have this done more frequently in warm water areas like Tampa Bay. Standard underwater sessions involve a diver cleaning the hull from the water line and below, ensuring that all barnacles, algae and marine life are completely removed, and confirming that the running gear below the water is also free of barnacle growth. Maintaining a clean hull will maximize a vessel’s life span and improve its performance and efficiency. ##### **System Check** Much like a fine automobile, a boat or yacht’s internal systems – air conditioning, pumps, exhaust, batteries, fuels and lubrication, and so on – should be reviewed regularly. Air conditioning maintenance is particularly important in Florida’s humid climate, and it’s likely that A/C lines will need to be flushed at least every six months. Some owners may be comfortable doing some or all of the system check themselves. Others may prefer to have a professional complete a comprehensive check, provide a service report summary and recommend next steps. ##### ![Luxury Boat Maintenance - Townhouses](/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/LuxuryBoatMaintenance-Townhouses.jpg) ##### **Launch Your Waterfront Lifestyle at Marina Pointe** Marina Pointe’s luxury waterfront condominiums from the mid-$700,000s are now available in the heart of the Westshore Marina District, where residents can walk to shops, dine on the water and enjoy a state-of-the-art marina and boat slips on their doorstep.

Located within Westshore Marina District, the unprecedented address boasts a deepwater marina and unrestricted access to the open bay, which provides endless boating in Tampa waters to a host of naturally beautiful destinations. Boaters know that getting there is half the fun! Here are a collection of six stunning outdoor destinations that are only accessible by boat, all just a short and enjoyable ride from Marina Pointe Tampa. ![Boating in Tampa ](/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Boating-in-Tampa_2.jpg) ##### **SHELL KEY PRESERVE** Shell Key is a pristine barrier island that includes an 1,800-acre preserve with stunning marine habitats, mangrove islands and vast sea grass beds. In addition to sun-splashed recreation, Shell Key is one of the state’s most important areas for shorebird nesting, wintering and study. The central part of the island is reserved for conservation, leaving the northern and southern ends for fun times and relaxation along soft sand beaches. Accessible only by boat, Shell Key Preserve offers camping as well as beach and boating activities. ##### **EGMONT KEY STATE PARK** The unspoiled beaches of Egmont Key are reachable only by private boat and are ideal for collecting shells and savoring quiet beauty with family and friends. The park is also a national wildlife refuge, protecting a diverse community of animals and plants, including Brown Pelicans and Laughing Gulls. History buffs will also enjoy Egmont Key State Park for its unique natural and cultural history. The lighthouse has looked out along the shore since 1858. During the 19th century, the island served various military purposes during the Third Seminole War, Civil War and Spanish-American War, and Fort Dade was built on the island and remained active until 1923. Fishing enthusiasts also enjoy Egmont Key, as it’s a prime spot for reeling in sea trout, tarpon, snook, grouper and snapper. Egmont Key snorkeling is popular because the welcoming waters are clear and calm – ideal for up close encounters with abundant sea life. ##### **HONEYMOON ISLAND STATE PARK** Honeymoon Island represents a unique opportunity to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life. It’s an oasis of white-sand beaches and stunning sunsets that also invites visitors to discover a rare virgin slash pine forest via a scenic three-mile trail. The Honeymoon Island dog beach makes it a great experience for those who bring their pets on boating adventures too. Marina Pointe residents can boat to this much-loved state park for swimming, fishing and shelling, in addition to popular activities like biking and hiking. Honeymoon Island State Park is also accessible by a ferry from Caladesi Island. Sun-seekers and boaters aren’t the only ones to populate the state park. Wildlife residents include everything from gopher tortoises to eagles and great horned owls. The Rotary Centennial Nature Center offers a wealth of insights on Honeymoon Island’s natural treasures and historic moments. ##### ****CALADESI ISLAND CAMPING**** Stephen Leatherman, an internationally recognized expert of sands and surf known as Dr. Beach, has judged Caladesi Island to be one of the best beaches in the United States for three years running. > *“The white beach is composed of crystalline quartz sand which is soft and cushy at the water’s edge, inviting one to take a dip in the sparkling clear waters,” Leatherman said. “There are boardwalk trails, but my favorite is the kayak and canoe trails through the mangroves to see the large blue herons and other birds that frequent this wonderful natural area.”* Caladesi Island State Park can only be accessed via boat and offers a host of unforgettable experiences. There are leisurely strolls along uncrowded beaches, kayaking through a mangrove forest and a nature trail walk through thick stands of pines and oaks to a historic homestead. Caladesi Island Camping is a favorite with those who love the great outdoors. ##### ****THREE-ROOKER ISLAND**** A decade ago, Three-Rooker Bar did not exist. This small, semicircular island emerged as a result of the ever-changing sands and coastal processes along the Gulf, and has quickly become a favorite destination for in-the-know boaters. Three-Rooker Island is something of a party paradise, a casual stretch of beach that’s perfect for those who want to drop anchor and let the good times roll. Weekends are especially lively, except for the part of the island reserved as a protected bird habitat. Camping is allowed, but be advised that there are no facilities provided and pets are prohibited. ##### **ANCLOTE KEY LIGHTHOUSE** Located three miles off the coast of Tarpon Springs is Anclote Key Preserve State Park, made up of four islands: Anclote Key, North Anclote Bar, South Anclote Bar and Three Rooker Island. The park is accessible only by private boat or ferry service. In this charmed coastal setting along blue-green Gulf waters, visitors can swim and picnic and enjoy a rustic camping experience paced by the rhythm of gently lapping waves. The 11,773-acre park offers birding enthusiasts more than 43 species to observe in this rare and unspoiled island habitat. At the southern end of the island is the Anclote Key Lighthouse. Built in 1887, this lighthouse is a square pyramid made of cast iron rather than the typical design favored along the upper Atlantic coast of the United States. ##### **A LUXURY ADDRESS FOR THOSE AT HOME ON THE WATER** Minutes from downtown Tampa, Marina Pointe’s luxury waterfront condominiums from the mid-$700,000s are now available in the heart of the Westshore Marina District, where residents can walk to shops, dine on the water and enjoy a state-of-the-art marina and boat slips on their doorstep.

Read more about why home buyers are considering new construction now more than ever. **Content:** ![Luxury waterfront condo interior at Marina Pointe in Tampa](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Interior-D-scaled-1-jpg.webp) There are a variety of reasons people are moving right now, and a plethora of reasons Tampa Bay is such a [hot market](/why-buyers-are-choosing-tampa/). Marina Pointe’s beautiful architecture and unique location on the water has always been attractive – but our new construction is increasingly more appealing than resale residences in the area. Here’s what we are hearing from buyers and real estate agents about why home shoppers are considering new more than ever before. ### – ##### **Don’t Overpay** Resale prices have skyrocketed, and people want a sound investment. Marina Pointe is situated in an area that continues to flourish with new development. ### – ##### Inventory is Tight Inventory is so tight that people are having to compromise. Marina Pointe’s [range of floorplans](/residences-3/) is helping buyers whether they are looking for a small, private space with stunning sunsets or a larger residence with room for entertaining and hosting guests. ### – ##### More Options To make a resale really feel like home, buyers are having to invest in redesigns and additional construction costs. When you buy from Marina Pointe, you have the chance to collaborate with our team to make the unit feel like your dream home from day one. ### – ##### The Hassle is Real The process of buying a resale can be horrendous these days with many buyers settling on their 3rd, 4th, or even 5th choice. Limited time to truly weigh options, bidding wars and more are not ideal for buyers truly looking for their next residence. Our sales executives are here to help every buyer be confident and excited about their new residence. ### – ##### Privacy Many resale options don’t offer the array of amenities or private elevators that Marina Pointe offers. There is an increased need for space to live outside of the home and privacy that new construction can better offer. Spend time with your furry friend at the dog park, stay active on our outdoor trails or take in the natural beauty at sunset park – no matter what you desire, there are safe, active spaces for you to enjoy. ### – We still have several floorplans ranging from the low $800s to over $3 million available in our first tower.

In Tampa alone, there are plenty of new spots to choose from: From a revived Seminole Heights favorite to a Korean fried chicken spot, local expansions and some big-name national acts, there’s no shortage of exciting places to try. **Bayou Bodega** Natural wine has made a big splash in the Tampa Bay area the past couple of years. Now, there’s a restaurant and wine bar where the so-called minimal intervention wines are the star of their own show. Husband-and-wife team Robert Sickler and Yari Ramos opened this cozy, colorfully decorated bistro on Davis Islands in the spring, with a wine list entirely dedicated to natural selections and a dinner menu inspired by Caribbean and Creole flavors. The evolving menu has featured dishes like crawfish mac and cheese, roasted sirloin with chimichurri sauce and several po-boys. For dessert, there’s a tropical bread pudding with raisins and rum sauce and Spanish saffron ice cream with cardamom and rose water. Or, you could just drink your dessert — that’s half the fun here, anyway. 241 E Davis Blvd., Tampa. 813-513-5478. bayoubodega.com. **Corner Club** ![](/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/FS2WXQD6ZBE6NKBIXZENVL3P7I.jpg) Smoked fish dip is served at the Corner Club, which reopened in Tampa’s Seminole Heights under new ownership earlier this year. \[ DIRK SHADD | Times \] At first glance, Corner Club Tavern regulars might not recognize the weathered watering hole in its new, glossy state. But despite an ownership change, a complete gut renovation and a cosmetic overhaul, the iconic Seminole Heights bar’s spirit is very much alive and well. Under the helm of owner Jeni Armstrong, the red brick building on the corner of N 15th Street and E Sligh Avenue is now home to an all-day bar and cafe, where coffee drinks, pastries and breakfast are served in the morning and small, snackable plates can be shared over drinks as the day wears on. It’s a place where you can just as well linger over a smoked olive martini and charcuterie board as you can cap an evening with a tall boy and a bowl of boiled peanuts — the choice is yours. 1502 E Sligh Ave., Tampa. 813-231-5010. **Cru Cellars Westshore Marina** ![](/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/UVTFQMFRKRHQ5O74YVIILXWUK4.jpg) Cru Cellars Westshore opened in Tampa’s Westshore Marina District in May. \[ CHRIS URSO | Times \] Cru Cellars fans, rejoice: There’s a new wine-focused restaurant in town from the folks behind the popular Palma Ceia wine shop. Outfitted in mostly white decor with plenty of plush banquettes and booths, the light and airy 2,400-square-foot restaurant imbues an elegant, slightly upscale dining atmosphere. Here, either stopping in for an afternoon aperitif and a snack or splurging for a more decadent dinner feels appropriate. Chef Zak Sylvester’s menu includes some holdovers from Cru’s repertoire (truffle fries and charcuterie farmer’s platters) but leans more heavily toward fish and seafood — a nod to the adjacent marina. The spot is the first of several restaurant projects planned for the sprawling Westshore Marina District and features — not surprisingly — a serious wine collection, with more than half of the 260-bottle list under $100. For oenophiles looking to up their game with a more high-end selection, there’s opportunity for that, too. 5232 Bridge St., Tampa. 813-515-5817. crucellars.com. **Gangchu** ![](/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/ezgif.com-gif-maker12-1024x683.jpg) Noel Cruz opened his new restaurant, Gangchu, in February in Tampa’s Seminole Heights neighborhood. \[ SCOTT KEELER | Times \] Chimaek (pronounced chi-mek) is the main attraction at the Seminole Heights bar and restaurant from Ichicoro’s Noel Cruz. The Korean term refers to the time-tested pairing of fried chicken and beer — crunchy, spicy Korean fried chicken. The menu is anchored by wings and boneless fried chicken plates, which are served with a selection of six different sauces. But there are plenty of other goodies you can use to soak up a few drinks, including spicy rice cakes with chili sauce (tteokbokki), loaded cheese fries, Korean fried chicken sandwiches, kimchi fried rice and a stone pot-cooked bibimbap. The theme extends to the beverage program, with a creative cocktail list that includes a brunchtime kimchi Bloody Mary, several bottles of Korean soju and a beer list that leans heavily on local selections. 6618 N Nebraska Ave., Tampa. 813-723-4264. eatgangchu.com. **Haiku** ![](/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/ezgif.com-gif-maker13-1024x768.jpg) The Torch Hamachi roll at Haiku in downtown Tampa features yellowtail, avocado, cucumber, lobster and serrano peppers. \[ HELEN FREUND | Tampa Bay Times \] This modern and colorful Asian fusion and izakaya spot opened in downtown Tampa in the spring and has already registered with locals as a popular happy hour hang. Part of the draw is the eye-catching decor clearly targeting the Instagram set. (Think: bright decor, pithy quotes, neon accents and flower walls.) But a craft cocktail program featuring Japanese whiskeys and sake, and chef David Reyes’ creative menu of shareable plates and drink-friendly snacks are also a big pull. Start with the pork gyoza or duck bao buns and move on to the wood-fired chicken yakitori or the hamachi crudo with coconut and puffed rice. For entrees, look no further than the miso-marinated sea bass or the glazed salmon with pickled daikon and black sesame. Still got room? The restaurant serves an entirely separate menu of sushi, too. 808 N Franklin St., Tampa. 813-644-5787. haikutampa.com. **Pho 813** ![](/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/ezgif.com-gif-maker14-1024x768.jpg) Bun bo hue, a spicy Vietnamese noodle soup flavored with lemongrass, is served at Pho 813 in South Tampa. \[ HELEN FREUND | Tampa Bay Times \] Yummy House owner John Zhao opened this Vietnamese restaurant in the building formerly home to the Local in South Tampa. It’s the first Vietnamese concept for Zhao, whose popular mini chain of Chinese restaurants has garnered a loyal local following throughout the area. The large, brightly lit dining room features a long bar, and a shaded patio out front provides plenty of outside seating. Beyond the restaurant’s namesake pho bowls, there are bun (vermicelli noodle) dishes, banh mi sandwiches, rice platters and house specialties that range from Vietnamese stir-fried tofu to bun bo hue, the spicy lemongrass-tinged noodle soup hailing from Vietnam’s central city, Hue. 3701 Henderson Blvd., Tampa. 813-542-1527. pho813.com. **Sal Y Mar** Perched high up on the rooftop of Midtown Tampa’s dual-branded Aloft and Element hotel, this cocktail lounge and restaurant inspired by Mexican beach hot spot Tulum features 360-degree views and — on the right evening — plenty of breeze. The menu dabbles in globe-trotting small plates, with an emphasis on Latin flavors, including carne asada tacos, pan-seared scallops with pineapple ginger sauce, jackfruit ceviche and a chipotle charred chicken served with brown sugar-roasted carrots. The Riviera Maya inspiration extends to the loungey boho-chic design as well as to the cocktail list, with drinks like the Mayan Mojito, a blend of rum, sparkling wine, mango and mint. 3650 Midtown Drive, Tampa. 813-692-3330. salymarrooftop.com. **Shake Shack** ![](/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/BCGZTHCDURBQVFIHLXXKBVA6MA.jpg) Tampa Bay welcomed its first Shake Shack in June at the new Midtown Tampa development. \[ IVY CEBALLO | Times \] Crispy crinkle-cut cheese fries. Creamy frozen custards. ShackBurgers. If you haven’t experienced the magic that is Shake Shack, now is your chance. Tampa Bay’s first location of the popular fast-casual burger and shake brand opened in June to wildly enthusiastic fans, and it’s easy to see why. The restaurant also marks the first of several eateries at the brand new Midtown Tampa complex, and it’s clear that the owners are betting that the national brand name recognition will bring plenty of attention to the sprawling mixed-use development. So far, that’s turning out to be a pretty smart bet. 1011 Gramercy Lane, Tampa. 813-588-5240. shakeshack.com. **Supernatural Food & Wine** The takeout sandwich, doughnut and natural wine hub opened in downtown Tampa in March from the same folks who operated the short-lived restaurant Nojaks in the same space. Nojaks was mostly vegan, and this new concept definitely is not, but there are some similarities. Produce is sourced, when possible, from small, local farmers, and the overarching emphasis is on quality ingredients (hello, Sullivan Street Bakery bread) and a rotating cast of seasonal veggies. Notable sandwiches include the chicken salad supreme, a towering BLT with thick-cut bacon and a classic Italian cold cut combo known as the Italian Stallion. And yes, there are some vegan items, including the popular cider “sourdonuts” and a chickpea salad sandwich with avocado and green goddess dressing. 305 E Polk St., Tampa. 813-758-6230. supernaturalfoodandwine.square.site. **Willa’s (and Willa’s Provisions)** ![](/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/FDNHS7ISEFGFTMSS5TH7RYXG74.jpeg) Billing itself as a “neighborhood restaurant that loves its people,” Willa’s opened in Tampa’s North Hyde Park in March. \[ JETT BUTLER | Courtesy of Willa’s \] The North Hyde Park restaurant and its sister cafe opened in March, boasting a welcoming ambiance and friendly neighborhood vibe. Designed with some of New York City’s all-day cafes and restaurants in mind, Willa’s provides a slightly more traditional dining experience while the adjoining cafe does double duty as a coffee shop serving King State coffee and breakfast bites. Later in the evening, the cafe morphs into a casual cocktail lounge with a focus on amaro and vermouth. At the restaurant, Amish-raised chickens, slow-roasted on the spit, highlight the dinner menu. The half-roasted bird arrives topped with an emerald salsa verde and shows up on a baguette sandwich in a tasty spin on a French dip with melted provolone and au jus. Roasted potatoes come dressed in chicken drippings and herbs, and a restorative chicken soup is made with — yep, you guessed it — rotisserie roasted chicken broth. What’s more, a pick-your-spirit house cocktail program features several creative twists on classic libations plus several drinks — including a strawberry Aperol spritz — on tap. 1700 W Fig St., Tampa. 813-519-4552. willastampa.com.

Learn more about the rich history and how to enjoy Gasparilla in style. **Content:** ![](/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/WsKfzrvyQhKsLyGb7V8t_Gasparilla_3_MAP-300x300.jpeg) ![](/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/rbTYVV6ITO6RK5BoW2Nz_Gasparilla_2_MAP-300x300.jpeg) The beautiful waters surrounding Tampa are deeply rooted in history and exploration. Home to dolphins and manatees, this vast estuary connects us to the Gulf of Mexico and served as a passageway for Spanish explorers in the late 1500s. One of the best and longest-standing events along the water in Tampa Bay is the internationally known Gasparilla. ###### ###### The History of Gasparilla Marina Pointe is a proud part of Tampa Bay and if you’re a resident, you know the importance of this annual pirate festival well. This celebration of legend is the third-largest parade in the nation and takes place in late January or early February at the intersection of historic Bay to Bay and Bayshore Boulevard. Our famous celebration gets its name from a pirate known as José Gaspar. With his crew of motley thieves, Gaspar seized and raided merchant ships off the Gulf Coast, plundering the waters throughout the late 1700’s and early 1800’s. Unbeknownst to them, their final pillage took place in 1821 on a United States Navy warship in disguise. The long-lived thievery of Gaspar and his crew had come to an end. The city of Tampa began celebrating this honorable victory with a Gasparilla Parade of Pirates in 1904. As part of the celebration, “Ye Mystic Krewe of Gasparilla” was formed, and its forty members planned a mock pirate attack on the city. This customary celebration upholds the legend of José Gaspar to enrich the community with imagination and gusto. On January 29, The Gasparilla Pirate Invasion re-enactment takes place from 11:30 a.m. – 1 p.m. and the victory parade will commence at 2 p.m. Come be part of Tampa Bay history and celebrate in style, the Marina Pointe way. ###### Party like a Pirate – Tips to Enjoy Gasparilla in Style 1. **Board a Gasparilla Invasion Brunch Cruise** Join the largest luxury vessel in the flotilla, The Yacht Starship. Enjoy a delicious, all-you-can-eat brunch menu, two complementary cocktails, and an unparalleled view of the pirate invasion re-enactment. Tickets are $149.95 per adult and $89.95 per child. The Florida Aquarium’s Gasparilla Invasion Cruise takes place on a 72-foot catamaran. Your ticket grants you bottomless mimosas, a deluxe open bar, gourmet sandwiches, and two-and-a-half hours amongst the colorful fleet of Gasparilla ships. Pricing is $175 per person (21+ only). **2. Join The Party Offshore** Gasparilla boat docks are officially sold out at the Tampa Convention Center, but you can still enjoy the festivities offshore on your personal vessel. If you want to be front and center for the fun, consider hiring a captain and taking a boat out for a few hours. With Anchor Rides, you can enjoy the afternoon with a licensed captain for only $75 an hour while partying like a pirate responsibly. 3. **Sponsored Tents and Private Seating** Avoid the crowd and reserve your private bleacher seating to watch the Parade of Pirates. If you’re looking for something a little more exclusive, The Scully’s Parade of Pirates Hospitality Experience offers a reserved area with bleachers, pre-parade family entertainment, a picnic-style buffet lunch, and free alcoholic beverages. With the purchase of a ticket to these private viewing areas, you have access to explore the colorful sponsored tents lined along Bayshore Blvd. A few of this year’s sponsors include Bud Light Seltzer, Tito’s Handmade Vodka, and Captain Morgan Rum. Within these striped tents, treat yourself to a drink and a shady view of the festivities. **4. Music at Riverwalk** Presented by Bud Light Seltzer, two stages will be featured along the Riverwalk in downtown Tampa with live entertainment. The music will run before and after the parade at both the Curtis Hixon Waterfront Park and MacDill Park stages. Keep an ear out for the lineup, which will be announced as Gasparilla comes closer.

Browse our guide to the depths of Tampa Bay below. ##### **How Deep is Tampa Bay?** Tampa Bay is the largest open-water estuary in the state of Florida, encompassing nearly 400 square miles and bordering Hillsborough, Manatee and Pinellas counties. Tampa Bay’s depth chart maxes out at an average of 12 feet, although there are deeper pockets that can reach up to 82 feet. The relatively shallow water allows for the growth of large sea grass beds and mangrove-dominated wetlands, which provide ideal habitats for more than 200 species of fish, 25 different species of birds, beloved marine mammals such as bottlenose dolphins and manatees, and a wide variety of marine invertebrates. All this fantastic Florida wildlife makes Tampa Bay boating a truly enthralling experience. From Marina Pointe’s state-of-the-art yacht basin, residents can glide directly into open bay waters and enjoy swimming in the warm blue-green waters, fishing for snook and spotted sea trout, or watching dolphins frolic in their wake. Other aquatic activities such as paddleboarding, kayaking, jet skiing and more are also very popular with Bay-area locals – you never know when you might spot the black-tipped fin of a baby reef shark as it chases fish around the sandy shallows, or drift past a manatee munching on the sea grass beds! Since Tampa Bay is naturally so shallow, the smooth silty bottom has been been carefully dredged to form shipping channels and marinas. This allows large ships and yachts to pass safely into the Port of Tampa and other local harbors and basins, including Marina Pointe’s yacht basin marina. The largest shipping channel in the region is an impressive 43 feet deep and 40 miles long, while Marina Pointe’s deepwater harbor has a 15-foot channel and ranges from 8-12 feet throughout the basin, accommodating larger and more luxurious vessels up to 100 feet in length. ##### **Tampa Bay Depth Chart** ##### **Set Sail on Tampa Bay at Marina Pointe** Marina Pointe’s luxury condominiums from the mid-$700,000s are now available overlooking the sparkling waters of Tampa Bay. These contemporary residences present you with the opportunity to walk to shops, dine on the water and have a state-of-the-art marina and boat slips on your doorstep.

Bank OZK is the lender. Walker & Dunlop’s executive director, Eric McGlynn in Miami, arranged the mortgage. Marina Pointe, currently under construction in the heart of the Westshore Marina District, is the result of a joint venture between BTI Partners and Westport Capital Partners based in Stamford, Connecticut. Westshore Marina District is a 52-acre mixed-use community that celebrates Tampa’s waterfront lifestyle and is committed to healthy living. ###### **Phase 1 comprises a 17-story apartment tower** The transaction for one of the largest condominium home loans in Tampa closed in late December. The first phase of Marina Pointe consists of a 17-story apartment tower with 120 residential units, 78 harbor slides and 32,151 square feet of retail space. BTI Partners laid the foundation stone for the first tower in the summer and it will be completed in 2022. Marina Pointe will eventually include two more towers with a total of 227 apartments and additional harbor slides. “Marina Pointe raised the bar for waterfront living in Tampa, St. Pete and increased the demand for luxury condominiums in that market,” said Noah Breakstone, CEO of BTI Partners. “Since the pandemic started, people from the Northeast and the Midwest have been moving to the Tampa market. This migration has further fueled additional demand for Marina Pointe, where residents can enjoy the safe outdoor space, direct access to hiking trails and waterfront restaurants, and other resort-style amenities. To top it off, if you’re a boater, Marina Pointe is the only new luxury condo with a private marina in the Tampa / St. Pete Market. “ ###### **1.5 miles of boardwalks** Located just south of downtown Tampa, it offers a unique proposition for shoppers looking for luxury amenities, a private marina, and a walkable lifestyle. The Westshore Marina District includes 1.5 miles of waterfront walking trails with a variety of restaurants and shops. The community planned by the master also houses two luxury multi-family communities with a total of 747 residential units and one residential community for sale, which will comprise 155 residential units after completion. The residential tower at Marina Pointe has state-of-the-art facilities, including a 24-hour porter / concierge, fitness center, an equipment platform overlooking the marina, a club with entertainment room and a virtual golf simulator. The sizes of each condo range from 1,750 to over 4,500 square feet and offer a variety of floor plans ranging from two to five bedrooms. The apartments have private elevators, ceilings up to three meters in length, floor-to-ceiling glass walls and windows, and oversized balconies with panoramic views of Old Tampa Bay and downtown St. Petersburg. ###### **Bank OZK brings visions to life** BTI Partners is a third generation development company led by Noah Breakstone. The company has over 30 years of luxury real estate development experience. To date, over 17,500 units have been developed in Florida. As a joint venture partner of BTI Partner, Westport Capital Partners is a private real estate investment firm focused on creating long-term value through high quality investments in select real estate, operating companies, securities and other real estate-related assets in leading global markets. Eric McGlynn of Walker & Dunlop played a key role in identifying bank OZK as an ideal source of capital. “We are delighted to have helped fund this particular project,” said McGlynn. “Marina Pointe offers living on the water, own marina slips for sale, access to restaurants and shops and proximity to the city center.” Walker & Dunlop has one of the strongest networks in the industry with over 250 sources of capital. The company took out $ 5.9 billion in brokerage loans from January to September 2020, up 21.6 percent over the same period in 2019. ###### **Activation of Tampa’s water bodies** “Bank OZK is pleased to finance Marina Pointe,” said Greg Newman, Managing Director / Originations at Bank OZK’s Real Estate Specialties Group. “Marina Pointe embodies the high standard that Bank OZK consistently strives for in its project financing – marquee properties, solid market foundations and first-class sponsoring. Noah Breakstone and the team at BTI Partners are creating a better place to live, work, visit and play in their home state. We appreciate the opportunity to be the only senior secured lender in this project and look forward to a very successful execution. “ Bank OZK (Nasdaq: OZK), through its Real Estate Specialties Group (RESG), offers priority secured finance for commercial real estate construction projects across the country.

Click here to see the menu at the Palma Ceia Cru Cellars. “Every neighborhood deserves a local respite where locals can escape and center themselves over good company, great atmosphere, and serious food and wine,” Jennifer Bingham said. “I’m excited to bring a neighborhood spot to the Westshore area.” “The opening of Cru Cellars and Sand Surf Co. marks an important milestone for Westshore Marina District,” said Britney Mroczkowski, vice president of retail development with Fort Lauderdale-based real estate developer BTI Partners. “The quality of these tenants shows how carefully we have curated the retailers in Marina Landings to offer a holistic experience to our residents and the South Tampa community. We will welcome many other retail tenants, which are currently building out their new spaces and plan to open in the coming weeks. We are also currently negotiating with several prospective tenants and expect to make a new announcement soon.” In addition to Cru Cellars and Sand Surf Co., Marina Landings will be home to Duckweed Urban Grocery, Crave Spa, Salon Color Bar, and DRNK coffee + tea and QWENCH juice bar. Located off Westshore and Gandy boulevards on Old Tampa Bay, Westshore Marina District is also home to luxury condos, waterfront walking trails and parks, a marina on a 13-acre deep-water basin, and floating docks featuring a 150-slip full-service marina to accommodate vessels from 40 feet in length to more than 100 feet. Access to the district just got easier with the recent opening of the Selmon Expressway Extension, connecting South Tampa to Pinellas County and Brandon. Westshore Marina District is being developed in phases with BTI Partners as the master developer. Over the last few years, BTI Partners has attracted developers, such as the Related Group, Bainbridge and WCI Communities, to the master-planned community to build luxury rental apartments and single-family homes. BTI Partners is currently building Marina Pointe, a condominium development with three high-rises and a marina in the heart of Westshore Marina District. Marina Pointe’s first tower consisting of 120 condominiums is anticipated to be open in mid 2022. The condos, designed by renowned architect Koby Karp, are priced from the low $800,000s to more than $3 million. Once BTI Partners’ development and neighboring residential projects are completed, the area will have nearly 2,400 new residences, injecting new life into the 1.5 miles of waterfront.

Tops on the list of motivations for the moves: Taxes, quality of life, business-friendly policies, school choice, economic opportunity and more attainable housing. The question is how well all those hold up if the state adds the 2.5 million people it’s projected to attract by decade’s end. All the population growth, by the way, will come from domestic migration and international immigration, as deaths in Florida will outnumber births. The good news is impacts will be dispersed over time. Much depends on where new residents settle. Florida is projected to add 348,878 school-age youth, for example. On its face, that number translates into the need for 200 to 500 new schools. But Florida has lots of underenrolled schools — thousands of empty seats in classrooms — so the state may need less school-building than the numbers might suggest. In this issue, Florida Trend gives snapshots of where the state stands on some of the needs most critical to continuing what drew people here — and strategies and realities in managing the growth to come. It might be understandable to worry, but if Florida is experienced at anything, it’s growing. ***ROADS & TRANSPORTATION*** ***Maybe Los Angeles-scale gridlock won’t be Florida’s future.*** “It doesn’t have to be that way,” contends Lily Elefteriadou, director of the University of Florida Transportation Institute, but “if we maintain the status quo, that’s going to happen.” Commuters can be forgiven for having a sense of inevitability. Mobility analytics company Inrix placed three Florida roads on its 2021 list of the 25 most congested in the U.S.: I-4 in Orlando west from the Beachline to SR 429 and U.S. 17 south from U.S. 192 to The Oaks Boulevard and, in Miami, I-95 north from I-195 to 51st. Alex Nitzman of online highway guide AARoads took a look at the state’s traffic counts and found big increases from 2014 to 2019. One example: Vehicles per day increased on I-75 near Sarasota by 18,184 to 116,233. Arterial roads all over Florida routinely saw gains of 10,000 per day. Overall, Florida commute times have increased 11.4% in the last decade, says the state transportation department. By 2030, Southeast Florida will add nearly 600,000 more people. Metropolitan Orlando’s traffic plan through 2045 anticipates 1 million more residents, plus tourists. Mitigating the mass of motor vehicles relies on a range of approaches. “It all helps,” says Gary Huttmann, executive director of the MetroPlan Orlando transportation partnership. **KEY STRATEGIES** - **BUILD MORE ROADS** In 2019, the Legislature with its M-CORES law pushed three new highways — extending the Suncoast Parkway to the Georgia line; connecting Florida’s Turnpike to the Suncoast Parkway; and a highway between Southwest Florida and Central Florida. Projected costs, doubts about the need for 330 miles of new highways in the hinterlands and opposition from environmentalists and local residents killed the move. Efforts to create at least portions of the roads or shift their location are ongoing. - **EXPAND AND/OR RE-ENGINEER EXISTING ROADS** This year, the $2.4-billion, 21-mile rebuild of I-4 through Orange and Seminole counties will be completed with the addition of tolled express lanes, a feature that has become commonplace. Indeed, tolling is being considered for many areas where it doesn’t exist now, such as I-75 in Southwest Florida. Traffic engineers have expanded their toolbox. Roundabouts and innovative interchange designs such as the “diverging diamond” interchange at University Parkway and I-75 near the Sarasota- Manatee county line smooth traffic flow. Technology can identify choke points and alternatives. In some European countries, signs direct drivers to use shoulders during heavy congestion. - **EXPAND TRANSPORTATION OPTIONS** Between cities, the private Brightline passenger rail will eliminate some car trips. Improving lightly used Amtrak service between Tampa and Miami to draw more people could help. Within cities, scooters, shuttles, on-demand public transit van service, express buses, regular bus routes and commuter rail may help manage traffic. Jacksonville has an autonomous shuttle running. Floridians don’t use public transit much. Only 1.6% of commuters in Florida used public transit in 2019, a slight decline from 2018. Nationally, about 5% of commuters use transit. In Miami-Dade, the Florida county with the highest transit use, only 3.8% of commuters use public transit. - **TAKE ADVANTAGE OF NEW TECHNOLOGIES** In Gainesville, the University of Florida has a program to help the state evaluate new transportation tech. It’s called I-Street for the ungainly named Implementing Solutions from Transportation Research and Evaluation of Emerging Technologies. On the high-tech front, German company Lilium is building a hub in Orlando for intra-city air taxi service using electric airplanes. - **CAPITALIZE ON SOCIETAL CHANGES IN WORK PATTERNS** Elefteriadou notes that the pandemic resulted in drastic drops in traffic counts and showed that people can work remotely. “We don’t need to be in person for every single thing,” she says. The percentage of Floridians working from home was increasing even before the pandemic — to 7% in 2019, higher than the 5.7% national average, says the state transportation department. - **KEEP THINGS IN PERSPECTIVE** Although it provides small consolation, congestion doesn’t cost nearly as much in Florida as it does in some urban areas. Even in Miami, Florida’s most congested area, the cost in wasted time per driver is less per year than in New York and Chicago, according to Inrix, a Washington state company that provides location-based data and analytics. **Federal Funds** For a sign of how well Florida does at keeping up its infrastructure, look no further than the relatively little money the state got for bridge repair under the five-year federal $1.2 billion infrastructure law. Florida got just $245 million. The funding formula was based on how many bridges were ranked “fair” or “poor” by federal standards. About half the nation’s bridges rank that way but only a third of Florida’s. Florida TaxWatch says Florida is “essentially being penalized for proper bridge maintenance.” Florida for all infrastructure gets a total of $19.1 billion from the law, or less than $1,000 per capita, according to a U.S. News analysis. Alaska gets the most per capita at $6,700 followed by Wyoming at $4,400. In its separate analysis, Florida TaxWatch says the state got 68.9% — the lowest percentage in the nation — of what it would have gotten if the funds were allocated on a per capita basis. “This isn’t a new issue, as Florida has historically been a donor state for federal aid, with our hard-earned tax dollars going to subsidize programs across the country,” says TaxWatch President and CEO Dominic Calabro. Florida’s $19.1 billion includes $13.1 billion for highways. Which projects will be funded won’t be known for months. Another $2.6 billion goes to public transit, $1.6 billion for water infrastructure, $198 million for electric vehicle charging stations, $100 million for broadband expansion, $26 million for wildfire protection and $29 million for cyber-attack protection. The package includes $1.2 billion for Florida airports. “Really, a much-needed impact,” says Sam Sleiman, Suffolk Construction’s executive vice president of national transportation. Construction and engineering firms are eager to get the work, though they worry about where they will get the labor and materials. OPPORTUNITY INFRASTRUCTURE By a number of measures, economic opportunity remains robust in Florida. The state ranks fifth on Forbes’ list of best places to do business. The Tax Foundation’s 2022 tax index ranks Florida as having the fourth most-competitive tax system, the only major population state on the list. California, Connecticut, New York and New Jersey are in the bottom 10 for their complex, non-neutral taxes and high rates, the foundation says. “We are business-friendly in the state of Florida, and that helps us tremendously,” says Jerry Parrish, former chief economist at the Florida Chamber Foundation. Florida, according to the state Chamber of Commerce, led the nation in business formations in 2020. The number of applications for business licenses increased 26.8% to 495,251 — 58,521 more formations than second-place California. Florida ranked second, up from seventh, in the latest American Legislative Exchange Council’s economic competitiveness index. New York ranked last for the ninth consecutive year. Council CEO Lisa Nelson said, “People are voting with their feet. They’re headed to opportunity states.” Maintaining Florida’s business-friendly tag will involve keeping a keen eye on cost factors like taxation, government pensions and regulatory costs. Right now, the status quo looks pretty good. At least at the state level, for example, “Florida does a good job on regulatory costs,” Parrish says. “You can’t make them zero.” **FACTORS TO WATCH** - Economic competitiveness is impacted by how much government consumes. State spending as a share of state GDP, until the pandemic year, had been slowly declining since 2012, according to a FLORIDA TREND analysis. It fell to 8.2% in 2019 before rebounding in 2020 to 9%, the same level where it stood in 2012. Combined state and local spending as a share of GDP also fell through the decade. - Florida taxes lightly at the state level, ranking 49th for state taxes. About 80% of state tax receipts in Florida come from sales tax, compared to 48.2% nationally. - Florida taxes more heavily at the local level, ranking 28th in local (city and county-assessed) taxes. And it ranks high (ninth) in the share of money government demands in non-tax form: Special assessments, impact fees, bills for service. - While it doesn’t seem to have been a disincentive to growth, businesses pay more than half (53%) of all state and local taxes in Florida. That ranks the state ninth among states for the share paid by businesses. - Florida ranks 24th among states in per capita property tax. **ATTAINABLE HOUSING** How much trouble future Floridians face finding a home depends on the productivity of people like Noah Breakstone, CEO of Fort Lauderdale’s BTI Partners, which is riding the two development waves the state needs to house its growing population: Urban infill in places like Hollywood, Orlando and the 1,350-home Westshore Marina District in Tampa, and master-planned developments in spots with open land such as Osceola County. Florida, like the rest of the nation, isn’t producing as many rooftops as people need. The state’s housing deficit is the nation’s fourth-highest, according to mortgage finance giant Freddie Mac. It estimates the state needs 487,000 to 523,000 more housing units to catch up. Florida also has seen the biggest percentage decline in the nation since 1980 in the share of starter homes built. Based on population growth projections, Florida will need 1.05 million more homes by 2030. Permits for new housing in Florida are below historic norms even after posting doubledigit growth in seven of the last nine years, according to the state Office of Economic & Demographic Research. A difficulty: Existing residents will turn out to fight new development. Fights over redevelopment and new developments are common. Hillsborough and Pasco counties are continuing development-related moratoriums in parts of those counties. Housing scarcity drives up prices, slows family formation and affects workforce availability. Factors like rising labor and materials costs are beyond the control of state and local governments, but there are other ways to create more attainable housing. **KEY STRATEGIES** - **CHANGE DENSITIES** Open land provides more opportunity for affordably priced housing than expensive urban infill sites. But expect a denser number of houses per acre and adjusting land-use regulations so that employment centers can be located near homes. In northern Osceola County, Breakstone and BTI are developing Crossprairie, a 1,400- acre, 5,200-home project that also will include 1 million square feet of commercial space and 1.9 million square feet of offices. Local governments around Florida have shown an eagerness to consider new development in their communities when it provides “attainable” or “affordable” housing so locals can find a home. Palm Beach County commissioners, citing a lack of housing the workforce can afford, have considered allowing more development in a 21,000-acre farming area. Developers know the lower-end price point has the most demand and want to deliver, says Lesley Deutch, managing principal of John Burns Real Estate Consulting. Deutch says she’s getting inquiries from out-of-state firms about sites and markets beyond Florida’s traditional urban centers. “The areas that are open are going to see massive growth,” she says. “St. Lucie is an example of that. They’re getting jobs and industrial, and they have people coming there.” - **CHANGE ZONING RULES** In permitting new neighborhoods, don’t allow exclusive single-family zoning. To give developers more flexibility and to get more houses built, legislatures in some states have moved toward banning exclusive single-family zoning. Florida hasn’t taken that step. - **LOOSEN REGULATIONS** Allow more and denser development in existing neighborhoods. A number of counties and cities already have moved to loosen regulation to allow denser development — near transit corridors, for instance. The city of Miami in 2009 adopted a form-based code that allows for denser and transit-oriented development. Orange County is at work on a new approach to encourage more dense development in already developed areas by allowing cottage homes and “granny flats.” St. Petersburg is considering a number of zoning changes for single-family home neighborhoods throughout the city. The measures would allow multi-family housing — including duplexes, triplexes, four-plexes and auxiliary dwelling units — in existing single-family housing neighborhoods. Those types of dwelling units are now prohibited in suburban neighborhoods. “Everything new that’s built should be walkable and transit-focused,” says architect and urban designer Elizabeth Plater-Zyberk, whose teaching at the University of Miami and work with her firm Duany Plater-Zyberk (now DPZ CoDesign) pioneered New Urbanism concepts. “We know how to do all this. We just have to stop doing the stuff that’s not sustainable.” In Hollywood, Breakstone and his BTI are demolishing a one-story drugstore strip center on a 3.25-acre parcel on Young Circle, a landmark park and traffic circle, and replacing it with two towers totaling 775 apartments, plus 115,000 square feet of retail and 60,000 square feet of office — the kind of urban infill project that planners say Florida needs. Achieving those goals requires dealing with existing residents, who often don’t want more neighbors, traffic and density. In Hollywood, however, BTI’s new project was welcomed. “It’s very difficult to provide housing affordably if no one wants it in their back yard,” says Breakstone. - **EDUCATE HOMEOWNERS** Many longstanding urban neighborhoods — including many among the most desirable places to live in a city — feature a mix of duplexes, single-family homes with garage apartments and small apartment buildings. Educate the public that more housing and “affordable housing” don’t mean slums. - **RETHINK IMPACT FEES** Two South Florida builder groups, the Gold Coast Builders Association and Builders Association of South Florida, in recent years successfully campaigned against a move by Broward’s school district to raise impact fees. The idea of impact fees is to levy a cost onto buyers of new homes to pay for the additional services they require — schools, parks, police. Broward’s public school enrollment has been shrinking. It has 51 schools with 70% or under the number of students they were built to hold. The builders groups said the district in 2020 proposed raising impact fees 31% to $9,049 for a three-bedroom home and 78% to $12,295 for a four-bedroom home. Uncertainty about fees around Florida limits new construction and drives up costs, says Ken Johnson, a Florida Atlantic University real estate market researcher. It leads developers to plan for higher-end homes, lest their profit be consumed by impact fees, and favors bigger players who can wait out the process until they have clarity on the fees. “The price for developing needs to be more transparent,” Johnson says. **ATTAINABLE HOUSING** **The Homeless** Pull in at a convenience store in Southern California and you’ll likely have to deal with someone panhandling. Southern California teems with homeless encampments, overwhelming tourist spots and back streets alike. Florida has its share of a homeless problem, from people spending the night under building overhangs in downtown Miami to tent cities in Tampa. Florida, the third-largest state, had the second-highest number of homeless at 27,487, according to the U.S. Interagency Council on Homelessness. That’s just a couple hundred more than Texas but far lower than California’s 161,548. In Florida, affordable housing discussions usually default to how much money the Legislature apportions for affordable housing projects. Being homeless has many causes — poverty, unemployment, mental illness, addictions, inaccessible health care and poor discharge planning from hospitals, prisons or the child welfare system. But the council also lists among the causes land-use and zoning rules. Joe N. Savage Jr., a regional coordinator for the U.S. Interagency Council on Homelessness, says land-use rules that restrict multi-family development or mandate “low density” single-family areas drive up housing costs, as do long permitting processes. “As such, housing construction costs increase and so does the cost of housing. This makes it unaffordable,” he says. **ENERGY** When it comes to electricity generation for a growing Florida, the state Public Service Commission says utilities’ 10-year plans are adequate for maintaining supply at a reasonable cost. **KEY REALITIES & STRATEGIES** - **SOLAR GENERATION** Natural gas will remain the dominant source of electric power generation in Florida for years, though generation from solar power plants is projected to grow the fastest, according to the PSC report. Utilities plan to add 15,210 megawatts of solar power in 10 years, compared to adding 6,147 megawatts from natural gas. (Nuclear is projected to hold steady while use of oil and coal decreases.) - **ROOFTOP SOLAR** Establish a workable policy for rooftop solar in the face of inherent conflicts. The rooftop solar industry wants the state to mandate that rooftop solar buyers get top dollar when they sell their excess power to utilities. Rate payers who can’t afford rooftop solar aren’t eager to subsidize those who can, and utilities say rooftop solar owners aren’t paying their fair share to support the grid. **DEVELOPMENTS TO WATCH** - **SOLAR LAND CONSUMPTION** A typical solar power plant in Florida takes 500 to 600 acres to produce 74.5 megawatts of electricity. Utility solar construction through 2030, under that model, would consume 102,000 to 122,000 acres, or 159 to 190 square miles. - **GROWTH IN ELECTRIC VEHICLES** Vehicle manufacturers and the federal government have ambitious hopes for consumers’ switching away from gaspowered vehicles. The Energy Institute at the University of Texas at Austin calculated Florida would consume roughly 30% more electricity if electric vehicles replaced all gas-fueled vehicles. That would entail a dramatic need for plant expansion and lots of land if the utilities meet the demand with fossil-fuel free but land-intensive solar. But at present, the market share of electric vehicles in Florida is only 0.46%, the PSC reports. Even with the nine-fold increase projected by 2030, electric vehicles still would be only 4% of the market. The power demand would comprise less than 1.5% of the state’s net energy load, the PSC says. - **WATER** Florida is blessed with abundant rainfall, and per capita consumption has generally been declining. But a growing population will boost demand for water in Florida by around 15% by 2040, based on projections by the water regulatory bodies that cover the state, according to the state Office of Economic & Demographic Research. None of the water management districts can meet future need from existing sources. Floridians already suck more freshwater out of nature for homes, farms and lawns than is good for the state’s natural systems — including the world’s biggest concentration of springs. All are critical to not only nature but also to clean and store water for human use. Worries about water span the spectrum of Florida interests — residents, cities, growers, environmentalists and businesses. Jerry Parrish, the Florida Chamber Foundation’s former chief economist, says water and water storage will be the defining task for the state in the next few years. The headline on a 2020 report from Florida TaxWatch: “We Can’t Wait on Water — The Restoration and Protection of Florida’s Water Resources is an Essential Taxpayer Investment.” “We’re definitely facing water shortages,” says Beth Alvi, senior director of policy for Audubon Florida. “The springs are struggling. Our drinking water is being challenged. Water demand from urban areas is becoming unsustainable.” In 2020, the “public supply” — water from utilities for residents and businesses — consumed more of Florida’s water than agriculture, historically the state’s biggest user. Agricultural use through 2030 is projected to rise marginally while the public demand will go up 12%. **KEY STRATEGIES** - **INCREASE SUPPLY AND STORAGE** An example: To secure water through 2040 for its 300,000 — and growing — customers in Southwest Florida, the Peace River Manasota Regional Water Supply Authority by 2028 will spend $40 million to expand its treatment plant and $350 million to construct a 9 billion-gallon reservoir. - **PROTECT SPRINGS, AQUIFERS AND OTHER SOURCES** A Clean Waterways Act in 2020 was good but not far-reaching enough, say environmentalists. Meanwhile, a separate program to cut water pollution and restore water bodies to health is “fatally flawed” because its creation didn’t include fertilizer runoff, says Paul Owens, president of 1000 Friends of Florida. - **DISCOURAGE USING DRINKING WATER FOR IRRIGATION** Some researchers say half the “public supply” of water — the utility-provided water piped to your property — is used for yard irrigation. Then there’s the water that irrigates golf courses, parks and homeowner association common areas. If property owners move en masse to native vegetation, fund reclaimed water systems and are willing to live with something other than green grass, the state’s future need for water will change considerably. - **ELIMINATE SEPTIC TANKS** An estimated 2.3 million Florida homes have septic tanks, which have been implicated in polluting bodies of water around Florida. In Miami-Dade alone, the estimated cost to convert the 100,000 homes and businesses to government sewer systems is $4 billion. - **REALIZE IT WILL BE EXPENSIVE** Water will become more expensive as the state turns to harder sources to exploit — brackish water, desalination, reclaimed water. The EPA estimates Florida’s 20-year capital need for drinking water, wastewater and stormwater totals nearly $45 billion. Pipes laid down a half-century ago are aging out. Charlotte County, for example, is budgeting $6 million a year to replace water and wastewater pipes and is in various stages of expanding three of its four wastewater treatment plants. The price tag for two is $110 million, up from $60 million when the process began. Planning on the third isn’t advanced enough to have a price tag. “Charlotte County is experiencing a huge amount of growth right now,” says Dave Watson, the county’s utilities operations manager. **INSURANCE & AFFORDABILITY** August marks the 30th anniversary of Hurricane Andrew, which ripped its way through south Miami-Dade and the Florida property insurance market in 1992. Miami-Dade recovered. The insurance market has proved harder to rebuild. The ups and downs of that effort make for a torturous chronicle. Skip to the present state: Florida’s last major hurricane hits were Irma in 2017 and Michael in 2018, yet property insurers in Florida still are buying red ink by the barrel. Through 2021’s third quarter, their net underwriting loss was $1.05 billion. State Insurance Commissioner David Altmaier blames those losses on catastrophes, higher reinsurance costs and litigation. Altmaier has said that Florida accounted for 8.16% of homeowners’ claims nationally in 2019 but 76.45% of homeowner suits against insurers. Florida ranks 46th in the Harris Poll survey for the national Chamber Institute of Legal Reform of views on states’ judicial impartiality and tort litigation climate held by in-house general counsels, company senior executives and attorneys. Florida came in ahead of only Mississippi, California, Louisiana and Illinois. Miami-Dade County was ranked among the worst local jurisdictions. Attorneys for claimants say they’re just trying to get insurers to pay what they’re contractually obligated to do in cases of damages. **KEY STRATEGIES** - **MAINTAIN SOLVENCY** Insurers have been granted permission to raise premiums to maintain the surpluses required to stay solvent. It varies by company, but 22 of 52 companies averaged around 14% — in part because inflation in labor and material costs drives up replacement rates. And insurers have jettisoned property owners judged to be too risky because their roofs are slightly older or other underwriting issues. - **CONTAIN CITIZENS’ GROWTH** Abandoned customers go to Citizens Property, the state-created and state-subsidized insurer of last resort, which added 217,000 policies in 2021. Citizens now has 10% of the state market but nearly a third of the Southeast Florida market. The state is trying to make Citizens less attractive to homeowners by, among other things, raising rates. - **LITIGATION** The Legislature has taken steps to change the litigation climate by curtailing “assignment of benefits” and other practices it says encourage frivolous claims.

The list of existing and planned tenants includes Cru Cellars, Sand Surf Co., Salon Color Bar, Duckweed Urban Grocery, Chuck Lager America’s Tavern and QWENCH Juice Bar. The 52-acre Westshore Marina District is a massive development in South Tampa off Gandy and Westshore Boulevards. In addition to the 70,000-square foot town center, the development will include 1,300 residential units, waterfront walking trails and a full-service marina. BTI Partners, the district’s developer, is in the process of building the three-tower luxury condominium development Marina Pointe.

At Marina Pointe, a premier waterfront community, residents enjoy an ideal vantage point to witness the wonders of Tampa Bay’s sea life. Marina Pointe offers the opportunity to venture on a journey through the captivating marine ecosystem that thrives steps away from your private condominium escape. **Five Sea Creatures You Can View in Tampa Bay** 1. Manatees One of the most beloved marine creatures that inhabit Tampa Bay is the gentle and charismatic manatee. Also known as sea cows, these docile herbivores can often be spotted swimming gracefully near Marina Pointe. Their large, round bodies and paddle-like flippers make them easily recognizable, and lucky visitors may even catch a glimpse of them grazing on seagrass beds. They tend to be more common during the cooler months, during November to April, as they are sensitive to cold water temperatures and seek refuge from the cooler gulf temperatures in Tampa Bay. It’s important to note that manatees are protected under the Endangered Species Act, and it is essential to observe them responsibly. Boaters and viewers should adhere to speed limits and avoid approaching or disturbing manatees to ensure their safety and well-being. 2. Dolphins Another common sight in Tampa Bay is the playful and intelligent bottlenose dolphin. Known for their acrobatic displays and sociable nature, dolphins can often be seen frolicking in the bay’s sparkling waters. Marina Pointe’s proximity to the bay makes it an excellent spot for dolphin-watching, providing ample opportunities to witness these magnificent creatures leaping through the waves or riding the bow wakes of passing boats. Dolphins can be spotted in Tampa Bay throughout the year, but the best time to see them is typically during the warmer months, from spring to early fall. This is because the warmer waters of Tampa Bay attract more fish and provide favorable conditions for dolphins to feed. In the late spring and early summer, you can expect to see baby dolphins! They are more active during daylight hours, so your chance of spotting a dolphin is higher during the daytime. Early morning or late afternoon tends to be a good time for dolphin sightings as they are often more active during these periods. It’s worth noting that dolphins are wild animals and their behavior can be unpredictable. While they are known for their playful nature and acrobatic displays, it’s important to give them space and not disturb their natural behavior. If you’re boating in Tampa Bay, be mindful of speed limits and keep a safe distance from dolphins to ensure their well-being. 3. Fish and Invertebrates Tampa Bay’s diverse marine ecosystem supports an abundance of fish species and invertebrates. From colorful tropical fish to sleek predators, the bay’s waters teem with life. Snorkeling or diving enthusiasts can explore underwater seagrass meadows, artificial reefs, and rocky outcrops, where they may encounter schools of snapper, grouper, angelfish, and even the occasional barracuda or nurse shark. The abundance of fish and invertebrates in Tampa Bay also makes it one of the most popular locations in the state for anglers. It’s important for fisherman to remain vigilant and aware of their supplies to minimize damage to the environment and animals that inhabit it. 4. Birdlife Tampa Bay’s estuaries and mangrove forests are a haven for a variety of bird species. Ospreys, pelicans, herons, and egrets are commonly seen swooping down to catch fish or perched atop the piers and mangroves. Marina Pointe’s waterfront location provides a front-row seat to witness the graceful flights and hunting behaviors of these beautiful avian creatures. One of the most exciting wildlife activities in Tampa Bay is watching the pelicans when they are diving for fish. They can often be seen gliding high above the water before making a dramatic and sharp turn towards the water, diving into it and gulping down a fish. 5. Seahorses and Seagrass Ecosystem The seagrass beds in Tampa Bay are not only essential habitats for various marine life but also act as nurseries for many species. Among the fascinating creatures found within these seagrass meadows are seahorses. These tiny, delicate creatures with their distinctive curled tails can sometimes be spotted clinging onto seagrass blades or hiding amongst the vegetation. Exploring the seagrass ecosystem can reveal a hidden world of colorful crustaceans, snails, and juvenile fish. Marina Pointe offers a prime location to experience the mesmerizing sea life of Tampa Bay. Whether you’re strolling along the marina, enjoying a boat ride, or simply admiring the panoramic views, the bay’s diverse marine inhabitants are sure to capture your imagination. From gentle manatees and playful dolphins to the vibrant array of fish and birdlife, Tampa Bay’s ecosystem is a testament to the region’s natural beauty and biodiversity. Next time you find yourself at Marina Pointe, take a moment to appreciate the incredible sea life just beyond the marina’s edge and immerse yourself in the wonders of Tampa Bay. **Categories:** Blog --- ### [Embracing Wellness: Staying Healthy and Active at Marina Pointe](https://marinapointe.com/embracing-wellness-staying-healthy-and-active-at-marina-pointe/) **Published:** December 12, 2023 **Author:** Phillip **Content:** ![Marina Pointe Healthy Lifestyle](/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Marina-Pointe-Healty-Lifestyle-300x200.jpeg "Marina Pointe Healthy Lifestyle - Marina Pointe") Nestled on the serene shores of Marina Pointe, a community that blends modern living with the [tranquility of waterfront views,](/news/sunset-splendor-the-best-spots-to-watch-sunsets-near-marina-pointe/) residents are presented with a unique opportunity to prioritize their health and well-being.

Buzzed Bull — which also sells non-alcoholic frozen desserts — has leased 1,200 square feet in Marina Landings, the district’s retail village. It’s slated to open later this year. BTI Partners, the master developer of the district, announced the lease Monday. Dana Dowsett of Southeast Retail Group and Sherry Naquin Sanchez of Resolut RE represented Buzzed Bull in the lease transaction. Westshore Marina District includes townhouses, apartments and luxury condominiums on 52 acres on the Westshore waterfront just south of the intersection with Gandy Boulevard. The creamery joins Cru Cellars, which recently opened a location in the district, as well as Duckweed Urban Market, boutique Sand Surf Co. and a California-based juice and coffee bar chain. “Buzzed Bull Creamery could not be a more perfect fit for our growing community in South Tampa,” Britney Mroczkowski, vice president of retail development with BTI Partners, said in a statement. “Westshore Marina District continues to attract new-to-market tenants that provide our residents and the surrounding community a unique experience, currently unmatched in the South Tampa area. We are dedicated to curating tenants that further enhance our vibrant community.” It is the latest in a spate of boutique ice creameries to open in the Tampa Bay area. St. Petersburg-founded Bright Ice is in [expansion mode](https://www.bizjournals.com/tampabay/news/2021/05/10/bright-ice-opens-in-water-street-with-big-plans.html); Brooklyn’s Oddfellow Ice Cream Co. recently [announced](https://www.bizjournals.com/tampabay/news/2021/07/21/oddfellows-ice-cream-co-hyde-park-village.html) a new location in Hyde Park Village. Jeni’s Ice Creams, based in Columbus, Ohio, opened in The Heights earlier this year. “As a South Tampa native, I am beyond excited to bring this fun and unique concept home to Tampa,” Paula Green, co-owner of the new Buzzed Bull store, said in a statement. “The minute we experienced Buzzed Bull for ourselves, we just knew it was time to open a store in Tampa. We couldn’t think of a better location than to bring it to Marina Landings in the heart of Westshore Marina District. Our store is going to be fun for the entire community, and we cannot wait to see everyone enjoy it as much as we have.” [Back to Article List](/news/) **Categories:** Blog --- ### [Cru Cellars opens in Westshore Marina District, marking watershed moment for the mixed-use development](https://marinapointe.com/cru-cellars-opens-in-westshore-marina-district-marking-watershed-moment-for-the-mixed-use-development/) **Published:** May 13, 2021 **Author:** Phillip **Excerpt:** South Tampa wine bar Cru Cellars has opened in the Westshore Marina District, marking a watershed moment for the mixed-use development. **Content:** ![](/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/img1400-750xx3024-1701-0-0.jpg) ##### Cru Cellars opens in Westshore Marina District, marking watershed moment for the mixed-use development South Tampa wine bar Cru Cellars has opened in the Westshore Marina District, marking a watershed moment for the mixed-use development. The third outpost of Cru, which also has locations in Palma Ceia and Heights Public Market at Armature Work, is the brand’s most food-forward location. It feels much more like a restaurant than the original site in Palma Ceia, which devotes a large amount of its real estate to a bottle shop, said owner Jennifer Bingham. The Westshore location is 2,400 square feet and features an outdoor seating area. There are more than 250 selections on the wine menu, and the cellar totals 2,000 bottles. The food menu includes nibbles like truffle fries and garlic Gulf shrimp crostini — but also pizza and a selection of entrees that includes filet mignon and several seafood dishes. Cru is the second retail tenant to open in Marina Landings, the district’s 70,000-square-foot retail village; boutique Sand Surf Co. opened May 1. The retail openings are a big milestone for the district, giving residents a walkable option and nonresidents a reason to visit. “The quality of these tenants shows how carefully we have curated the retailers in Marina Landings to offer a holistic experience to our residents and the South Tampa community,” Britney Mroczkowski, vice president of retail development with BTI Partners, said in a statement. Fort Lauderdale-based BTI Partners is the master developer of the Westshore Marina District. Bingham said she’s made more than 50 hires for the new Cru, which is open for dinner and sells coffee and pastries in the morning. In the weeks ahead, the hours will expand to include lunch and brunch offerings. The hiring is no small feat; restaurants throughout Tampa Bay are facing an extreme labor shortage. But Bingham said she’s been able to recruit by offering an incentive to existing staff — in the form of a Cru gift card — and following up with applicants immediately. Bingham is already working on her fourth location, [a champagne bar](https://www.bizjournals.com/tampabay/news/2021/01/15/bouzy-champagne-bar-coming-to-hyde-park-village.html) named Bouzy in Hyde Park Village.

The Tampa-Hillsborough Expressway Authority (THEA) estimates 40% of traffic will be pulled from Gandy Boulevard onto the extension, helping with congestion in that corridor. Now businesses are hoping for a rebound after they say three years of construction deterred customers. “A lot of cones, a lot of equipment moving. It was definitely an ordeal for people to just drive on this route,” Jerk Hut owner Andrew Ashmeade said. Ashmeade has three Jerk Hut locations; the one in South Tampa has been around for more than a decade. But since 2017, the pastel-colored building has been competing with an abundance of orange. As more heavy-duty machinery came to Gandy to start construction on the extension, Ashmeade says he saw fewer customers. “It was definitely a drop in business while the construction was going on,” Ashmeade said. ABC Action News went through hundreds of pages of studies concerning the project. In 2106, before crews even broke ground, THEA commissioned the University of South Florida for an economic assessment study. Researchers concluded, “construction can disrupt \[sic\] patrons’ accessibility to businesses and produce negative impacts on sales revenue.” They went on to say businesses relying on pass-through traffic would be hit the hardest. That includes fast food spots like Jerk Hut. Altogether, estimates showed those businesses losing an estimated $4.6 million in gross sales revenue. “The business community was very concerned about the impact it could have on the community and on their ability for customers to see their businesses,” THEA CEO Joe Waggoner said. Waggoner told ABC Action News the agency knew early on business owners had to be prioritized. “We literally went door to door to visit every single business establishment in this quarter to hear from them,” Waggoner said. Documents briefly discuss those encounters. Reactions ranged from support to two business owners threatening a class-action lawsuit. But, Waggoner said from design to construction, his team wanted to find a middle ground to ease the inconvenience. “We made assurances like during construction we wouldn’t block any driveways,” Waggoner said. “The elevation makes it easy for customers to see across the street and to see the businesses they want to get to. We didn’t take a single driveway away from any business that’s out there.” THEA partnered with several area chambers of commerce and created the Shop Gandy initiative. It encouraged consumers to patronize an estimated 170 businesses in the corridor to lessen the blow of lost revenue during construction. Now, it serves as a marketing tool to let shoppers know about sales and growth in the area. “Even during construction, 10 new businesses opened up on Gandy Boulevard while we’ve been doing our work. So it’s been a beneficial relationship,” Waggoner said. A year into construction on the extension, Jenny Beadle says the team at Woodie’s Wash Shack knew South Tampa was the perfect place for their second location. “We really wanted to be in the heart of an area where there’s a lot of families. There’s a lot of growth, and there’s a lot of potential for us to really be successful,” Beadle said. For the owners of this retro-themed car wast, the good outweighed the bad — even the most terrible characteristic of stand-still traffic. “Rush hour made me pull my hair out,” Beadle said. Now with all the cones out of the way, traffic is already running smoother. Traffic studies for the extension estimate wait times at lights from Westshore to Dale Mabry will be reduced between 49% and 65%. An added bonus is both residents and business owners say it’s not the eyesore they thought it would be. “I love everything about it,” Ashmeade said. “It’s almost something well-designed and decorated to match everything that we have in the area.” “I’d prefer obviously to see open sky, but it doesn’t really end up bothering me all that much,” South Tampa resident Samantha Miller said. “But I think they did a really good job by landscaping the medians underneath it. They’ve tried to keep it as low key as they possibly could.” The drapes come off the signage on Monday, and the extension opens up. Business owners say this is a new sign of growth. **Categories:** Blog --- ### [The Surprising Inspiration That Shaped Architectural Innovation](https://marinapointe.com/architectural-innovation-blog/) **Published:** October 29, 2018 **Author:** Phillip **Content:** ![Overhead View](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/overhead-view.jpg) As the crown jewel of Westshore Marina District’s 52 waterfront acres, Marina Pointe was imagined by the internationally recognized Kobi Karp Architecture & Interior Design, which drew inspiration from intriguing sources that include the bay, boats, and most surprising of all, boomerangs. The design challenge started with maximizing views for three 16-story towers along the scenic waters of Tampa Bay. Noah Breakstone of developer BTI Partners said, “To find 1.5 miles of waterfront living in the city of Tampa was truly unique. When we looked at this on peninsula, and we talked about having a luxury residence that was livable and walkable … that people could enjoy the surroundings and natural environment. But the question was how do you do that today to have something that really is timeless?” ## A design that makes a splash Architect Kobi Karp’s vision is helping to develop the skyline. He said, “This site is truly the crown jewel of the area. We wanted to create an iconic signature that honors the city’s culture and heritage, and also comes to represent its future in the decades to come.” In a sense, the Marina Pointe residential buildings rise up from the water. Therefore, it was fitting that the boats that ply these protected waters would provide design inspiration. “When you look at these crystalline sculptural towers,” said Karp, “you can see the unmistakable lines of a ship’s bow and the graceful lines of its sails.” Beyond the style and beauty reflected in the silhouette of Marina Point’s residential buildings, the architecture accomplishes important functional considerations. Just as the bow of a ship advances forward as it rises from the water, the profile of the towers gradually extends out as it elevates from the ground floor to the penthouse. This serves to ensure that every residence boasts optimal views of the bay, the coastline and the energized urban setting beyond. ## The boomerang solution Maximizing views for residents was a primary goal in designing Marina Pointe. Noah Breakstone said’ “One of the incredible things that Kobi Karp brought to the table is what they called the boomerang design – three wings that extend from a central point. As the residential buildings move westward on the peninsula from the coast toward the water, they rotate to the perfect position for panoramic views. No tower blocks views of another. It is truly an innovative idea to achieve a very important result for those who will call Marina Pointe home.” Kobi Karp said, “Then residents enter their condominiums, a vision unfolds of expansive glass walls and the breathtaking views beyond. Whether they’re in the living room, or having breakfast and morning coffee, sitting in your kitchen looking out, in the master bathroom … they are blessed with amazing views to the outside. Great view 360 degrees, 365 days a year.” Overlooking a deepwater yacht basin in the heart of Tampa Bay, Marina Pointe’s carefree condominium lifestyle features breathtaking views, luxurious amenities, a state-of-the-art marina and extraordinary values at the pinnacle of South Tampa’s exciting new walkable waterfront neighborhood. A limited collection of waterfront luxury residences is available from the $700,000s. Information is available at MarinaPointe.com, and 813-930-9800.

Tampa, Florida-based Coastal Construction will lead the pre-construction planning for the next part of Marina Pointe, a three-tower development in Tampa. Plaza Construction, headquartered in New York City, constructed the [first tower of the development](https://ccr-mag.com/marina-pointe-construction-underway-in-tampa/) at the Westshore Marina District, which was completed in May 2023, according to Commercial Construction and Renovation Magazine. Construction of the second tower will begin later this year, and it will include 151 new luxury condos ranging from 1,100 to 3,300 square feet. It will also feature seven 3,300-square-foot single-family “Harbour Homes.” Marina Pointe is the centerpiece of the 52-acre Westshore Marina District, located on a private peninsula. The development includes shopping, dining, trails, boating and water sports. Other amenities will include a full-service marina, fitness center, resort-style pools, an entertainment room and virtual golf simulator. Founded in 1988, Coastal Construction is a fifth-generation, family-owned business. The contractor specializes in high-end properties, such as condominiums, resort towers and luxury homes. Its portfolio includes over 10,000 residential units and 50 hotels. Fort Lauderdale-based BTI Partners identified the site and developed the plan for the project, and three LLCs — Marina Pointe East Developer, Marina Pointe Central Developer and Marina Pointe West Developer — are developing the three towers. **Categories:** Blog --- ### [Discover Tampa’s Most Desirable Neighborhood](https://marinapointe.com/discover-tampas-most-desirable-neighborhood/) **Published:** October 31, 2024 **Author:** Phillip **Content:** ## **The Westshore Marina District Brings Convenience & Community to Marine Pointe** June 5, 2024 ![Two people riding electric bikes on a sunny street in front of Marina Pointe, showcasing new construction waterfront condos for sale in Tampa's Westshore Marina District, featuring modern architecture, luxury interiors, and resort-style amenities with deepwater marina access.](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/20240422_Marina_Pointe_1028.webp) Marina Pointe finds itself at the heart of the alluring Westshore Marina District — Tampa’s ultimate walkable, bikeable, waterfront neighborhood.

And since many people still work remotely due to COVID-19, the Sunshine State is proving to be a particularly attractive place to own a vacation home. **Content:** ![Aerial view of Tampa](https://marinapointe.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/The-7-Best-Places-to-Buy-a-Vacation-Home-in-Florida-1-jpg.webp) With 1,350 miles of beautiful coastline and sunny weather during most of the year, it should come as no surprise that Florida’s real estate market is among the top-performing in the country. And since many people still work remotely due to COVID-19, the Sunshine State is proving to be a particularly attractive place to own a vacation home. “I would describe Florida’s real estate market right now as hot, just like our weather,” said Dina Goldentayer, executive director of sales with Douglas Elliman in Florida. “There is very low inventory and very high demand.” Goldentayer explained that while this doesn’t necessarily translates into bidding wars, prospective buyers should be ready to “act quickly and to not think that something would be still on the market when they come back to town a few months later.” According to the latest market report for Florida’s East Coast by One Sotheby’s International Realty, median single-family home prices in the region have reached a record high. Almost a third of all sales (houses and condos) now sell above listing price. Most buyers looking for a vacation home in Florida are in the market for properties in luxury buildings with lots of high-end amenities, in proximity to restaurants and sporting events. “And views of the ocean,” added Goldentayer. “You can never get tired of looking at those.” So, if you are thinking about investing in a vacation home in Florida, here are the best Florida towns, cities, and destinations to target. **Miami Beach** As the most international destination in South Florida and home to some of the country’s best restaurants, beaches, shops, and entertainment spots, Miami Beach is the ultimate vacation spot. And the city’s real estate market fully reflects that. New construction is booming in the area with developments such as 57 Ocean Miami Beach, Ten30 South Beach, Monaco Yacht Club & Residences, and Monad Terrace making their debut this year. And given that the region is attracting an unprecedented number of visitors, it’s safe to say that even if you don’t end up spending much time in your new Miami Beach property, it’ll have plenty of rental potential, too. **Palm Beach** Palm Beach’s exclusive and glamorous lifestyle appeals to buyers looking to enjoy its world-class shopping and pristine beaches in a serene and sophisticated environment. The real estate market in the city where many of the country’s wealthiest individuals own a vacation property is extremely hot right now. Earlier this year, sales across all housing types in Palm Beach were up, setting an all-time record, Palm Beach Daily News reported. Only in the first quarter of 2021 sales exceeded $1.2 billion compared to $398 million for the same period last year. And in one instance, a new custom-built compound sold for $26.16 million in January only to be re-listed a month later for $45 million (yes, it sold again pretty quickly). **Fort Lauderdale** Known as the boating capital of South Florida, Fort Lauderdale is the perfect vacation spot for those who like to enjoy daily sailing trips. The city’s many canals, sun-drenched beaches (seven miles of them!), and bustling art scene are why so many people are looking for vacation properties here. In July, the average sale price in Fort Lauderdale for a single-family home soared to a whopping 60 percent over July 2020. So, prepare to pay more than the list price if you want to call Fort Lauderdale your permanent vacation spot. **St. Augustine** History buffs will love exploring what the oldest city in the country has to offer. Between its many Gilded Age architectural masterpieces, gorgeous beaches, charming cobblestone streets, and eclectic stores, one thing is certain — boredom is never an option here. While the city is more affordable, the real estate market is still very competitive, with some properties getting snatched off the market within 24 hours. St. Augustine has actually one of the fastest growing markets in Florida, so if you’re considering this city, your investment is certainly likely to pay off. **Pompano Beach** Nestled just north of Fort Lauderdale and south of Hillsboro Beach, this former sleepy beach town is now an up-and-coming destination on the luxury real estate market in South Florida. With a new crop of developments such as the oceanfront Solemar, which offers residences with unobstructed ocean views at a much lower rate than those in Miami or Fort Lauderdale, Pompano Beach is a great long-term investment. The city has recently spent millions of dollars rehabilitating its beachfront, adding a new fishing pier and a 663-spot pier parking garage. And by 2025, Pompano Beach’s new downtown “Innovation District” will be a reality, bringing a vibrant and pedestrian-friendly, urban, mixed-use downtown area. **Tampa** Let’s get one thing straight — Tampa was popular long before Tom Brady joined the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. With its many theme parks, waterfront entertainment, delicious food, and diverse cultural scene, the city has long been a favorite vacation spot for families. Tampa is actually ranked one of the top 10 fastest-growing cities in the U.S. Currently, the Tampa Bay area is adding $13 billion worth of new developments and improvements. Major projects include The Related Group’s first-ever collaboration to launch The Ritz-Carlton Residences, The Residences at the Tampa EDITION, and a $400 million renovation of the Westshore Marina District that includes plans for several new condo buildings, townhouses, and restaurants. **Naples** Family-friendly Naples offers laid-back luxury, great beaches, and many golf courses. The city, known as one of the most luxurious communities along the Gulf Coast, is home to many opulent beachfront mansions. The legendary Naples Beach Club is currently undergoing a complete transformation to turn it into a hotel and residences property, adding to the area’s appeal and real estate value.

The area spans a total of six city blocks, surrounded by enchanting tree-lined avenues with an exquisite iron fountain rising from the main square – after an afternoon of window shopping and exploring, dine at restaurants such as Meat Market, Forbici Modern Italian or On Swann, then pick up an artisanal popsicle from Hyppo Pops or a gourmet treat from Sprinkles’ signature cupcake ATM. **Beach Drive** Located right across the bay from Marina Pointe via car or boat, downtown St. Pete’s Beach Drive is home to a series of unique shops, shaded parks, and amazing restaurants and bars. The acclaimed Museum of Fine Arts and the world-class Salvador Dalí Museum both overlook Beach Drive, as does the historic Vinoy Renaissance Resort & Golf Club that was once frequented by the likes of F. Scott Fitzgerald and Marilyn Monroe. Walkers looking to spend a little time up close and personal with nature will enjoy pausing in the shadow of the ancient banyans, and dolphins, reef sharks and other Florida wildlife can often be spotted in Tampa Bay. **Live Just Minutes Away** Marina Pointe’s waterfront condominiums are conveniently located in the heart of the emerging Westshore Marina District at the intersection of Westshore and Gandy Boulevards, a short distance from Tampa’s most popular and pedestrian-friendly neighborhoods.

It’s a lifestyle we get to live every single day,” say Ernie and Kathy, Marina Pointe owners and future residents.* ### – ##### Why Tampa Bay? After living in Orlando and becoming empty nesters, Ernie and Kathy wanted to get back to the water and decided to explore the newer residence options in the growing, popular Tampa Bay area. “We chose Marina Pointe for its community, location, and convenience. It’s a destination location. Marina Pointe really does have something for everybody,” Ernie and Kathy explain. ##### What about the surrounding area? The couple shared their excitement for the resort-style amenities including spaces they will use frequently, like the gym and stunning pool overlooking the bay. They are looking forward to being able to walk to the town center to pick up something from the local grocery or grab a cup of coffee before they take their morning walk together along the water. ### – ##### How about living right ON the water with a private boat slip? In addition to the range of amenities and community walkability, the couple is most thrilled with having the private marina just steps from their front door. Ernie and Kathy moved to Tampa while their new luxury residence is being built, and they are already immersing themselves in the boating lifestyle here. They cruise around Tampa Bay on their Cobalt 25sc’ from Tom George Yacht Group almost daily. *“We’ll bring our work with us on the boat.” They also love being able to cruise around, relax and listen to music. “My favorite part is just sitting in the front and just lounging while Ernie’s driving and just kind of flying over the water.

Here’s a glimpse into what your reality could look like come Summer 2022. It’s a beautiful morning at Marina Pointe, and your day is filled with opportunities. Imagine the aroma of sweet espresso wafting through your crisp (chic), new kitchen. The terrace awaits, calling you to sip your morning brew in comfort, overlooking the calm waters of the bay. Or maybe you’re up before sunrise. You don your activewear for a morning jog along the trails or meditative outdoor yoga in the Zen Garden. Afterward, you’ve worked up an appetite, and DRNK Coffee + Tea is just around the corner, where you grab your breakfast reward or stop in for a craft juice at QWENCH Juice Bar. !["Assorted DRNK coffee cups and a white pitcher on a wooden table, showcasing a variety of coffee and tea options with coffee beans scattered around."](/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/drnk-coffee-tea-scaled-1-jpg.webp) ![Running](/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/marina-pointe-running-scaled-1-jpg.webp) When it comes to activities, Marina Pointe is no stranger to variety.

BTI Partners is the Fort Lauderdale-based developer of the district and Marina Pointe, a subdivision within the district. The first tower in Marina Pointe, which is 17 stories and 120 condos, is 96% sold, a representative of the developer said Wednesday. Residents are expected to move in in late 2022. The Westshore Marina District is a mixed-use development that includes a retail village, apartments, townhomes and the condominiums in Marina Pointe, which will have three towers at full buildout. The second tower will have 157 condos, priced from the high $700,000s to more than $4 million. Floor plans range from 1,200 to more than 2,000 square feet. “Our strong sales in Tower One, and the subsequent launch of Tower Two sales, speaks to the continued demand for luxury bayfront residences in Tampa,” BTI Partners CEO [Noah Breakstone](https://www.bizjournals.com/tampabay/search/results?q=Noah%20Breakstone) said in a statement. “Marina Pointe is the embodiment of Tampa’s waterfront lifestyle, and that’s what is attracting buyers to Westshore Marina District.

Miami-based Related Group said units in the second phase — 94 condominium units and six townhouse-style villas — will be priced from $1.5 million. The first phase of the Ritz-Carlton, which is Ritz-branded condos and does not include a hotel component, [broke ground](https://www.bizjournals.com/tampabay/news/2022/01/13/ritz-carlton-tampa-begins-construction.html) in January. In September, an $11 million penthouse in the first phase was [presold](https://www.bizjournals.com/tampabay/news/2021/09/28/ritz-carlton-residences-tampa-penthouse.html). The first phase is completely sold out, Related said. Jon Paul Perez, president of Related, told the Tampa Bay Business Journal that the developer has been “very happy” with the project’s presale pace and average prices per square foot; the first phase, which includes 89 condo units and 12 villas, was 30 percent presold before the sales center opened. Within four to five months of the sales center opening, the first phase was 90 percent sold. The first phase has seen an average price per square foot of nearly $1,000, Perez said. The $1,000 per-square-foot threshold was not commonly crossed in Tampa until recently; it is much more common in the Sarasota market and represents the very top tier of luxury real estate in Tampa. Despite growing concerns of a coming economic slowdown, Perez said Related still sees plenty of opportunity in Tampa. “With all of the data we have, it doesn’t concern us enough not to launch,” Perez said. “We’re still seeing significant demand.” Arquitectonica, which designed the first tower, is the architect for the second phase. Related did not announce a general contractor for the second phase; Coastal Construction is building the first phase. About 50% of the buyers in the first phase are local; much of the other 50% are relocations from out-of-state, with a strong concentration of Midwestern buyers who had moved to the Tampa Bay area and were looking for permanent housing. “We think there’s still a good amount of runway for this type of product, especially in Tampa, where’s there not as much competition,” Perez said. Prior to the Covid-19 pandemic — and Tampa Bay’s subsequent population boom — there were [1,000 luxury condos](https://www.bizjournals.com/tampabay/news/2020/03/13/tampas-condo-resurrection-started-off-slow-but-now.html) proposed or under construction between the Westshore Marina district and downtown Tampa.

Fort Lauderdale-based CTS had already invested more than $12.7 million in building of the testing facility, which covers 44.42 acres at 18855 Bee Line Highway and features a state-of-the-art, high-thrust turbine engine testing stand and related equipment that can handle the airline industry’s most significant turbine engines, Colliers said. “The most challenging aspect of the sale was finding a niche buyer whose criteria aligned with this unique product being sold,” Colliers director Bastian Laggerbauer said in a statement. “Ultimately, the tenant, CTS Engines, decided to purchase the asset due to its essential use required for the continued success of the company.” Laggerbauer represented Apogee along with Colliers executive managing director Mark M. Rubin, financial analyst Jake Stauber, and executive managing director Steven Wasserman and managing director Erin Byers from the company’s industrial services group. Construction giant Skanska AB has begun construction on a $19.5 million campus replacement project for Tampa’s Dorothy Thomas Exceptional Center, a Hillsborough County public school that serves students in need of emotional and behavior support. The project, which was designed by Fleischmann-Garcia Architecture, will replace the school’s 12 existing classrooms with a 40,000-square-foot project featuring state-of-the-art facilities for nearly 60 students in grades K-12. Completion is expected by August 2023. The construction poses logistical challenges, since the new facility is to be built while the campus remains active, Skanska noted. The construction team first relocated the existing classrooms to the other side of the campus and said it will closely monitor noise levels because some students may be sensitive to loud sounds. BTI Partners LLC launched sales on the second tower of Marina Pointe at Westshore Marina District. The high-rise will feature 157 luxury condos with views over Tampa Bay and the St. Petersburg skyline. Residences will include a variety of one- to four-bedroom units ranging in size from 1,200 to 2,000 square feet, with prices from the high $700,000s to more than $4 million. “Our strong sales in Tower One, and the subsequent launch of Tower Two sales, speaks to the continued demand for luxury bayfront residences in Tampa,” BTI Partners CEO Noah Breakstone said in a statement. “Marina Pointe is the embodiment of Tampa’s waterfront lifestyle, and that’s what is attracting buyers to Westshore Marina District.” Tower One is scheduled for completion later this year. Amenities at Marina Pointe include a private marina on a 13-acre deep-water basin, with 150 slips able to accommodate vessels as much as 90 feet long. Residents also have access to a 24-hour concierge, fitness center, amenity decks with resort-style pools overlooking the marina and Tampa Bay, a residents club, and a virtual golf simulator. Westshore Marina District, including Marina Pointe, was conceived by Fort Lauderdale-based BTI Partners, a real estate developer and land investment firm, to be South Tampa’s premier walkable community. The district, which is close to several shops and restaurants, also features residential projects built by third-party developers, including WCI by Lennar, The Related Group and Bainbridge. PEBB Enterprises and Tortoise Properties announced the lease and buildout of 40,000 square feet of office space to National Dentex Labs at the Jupiter Innovation Center. Located at 1701 Military Trail in Jupiter, the Jupiter Innovation Center is the town’s largest for-lease office building, at 186,238 square feet on 16 acres, according to the landlords. The lease with NDX brings the building to 98% occupancy. NDX’s new headquarters can accommodate more than 100 employees, including certified dental technicians, and it also will serve as a central hub for the company’s more than 60 full-service dental labs across the country. The onsite lab will feature high-tech equipment to produce dental prosthetics, such as custom-made crowns and implant restorations, and an NDX Education Center with operating facilities that can host continuing education events for dental professionals. Verdex Construction handed the buildout of the dental lab and renovations to office space, a break room, a gym and bathroom facilities. Kravit Architectural Associates provided the design. Jeff Kelly of CBRE represented the landlords in the lease negotiations. Derek Baker of Colliers International South Florida represented NDX.

Our community is nestled among turquoise waves and colorful sunsets — placed thoughtfully in Tampa Bay, known for its ideal weather, and minutes from St. Petersburg (commonly called the “Sunshine City”). **Content:** ![Sunshine Year Round Image](/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/MAP-0085-Social-Media-Retainer-April-Graphic-Opt-1-Blog-1920x1080-1-768x432.jpg) In the Sunshine State, you’ll find luxury waterfront living at Marina Pointe. Our community is nestled among turquoise waves and colorful sunsets — placed thoughtfully in Tampa Bay, known for its ideal weather, and minutes from St. Petersburg (commonly called the “Sunshine City”). **No Winter Blues Here, Only Tranquil Blue Waves** While families across the country feel the winter blues late into springtime and shovel snow from their driveways, our Marina Pointe residents cruise the Gulf and enjoy warm beach picnics. In April, the average temperature in Virginia ranges from 43 to 65 degrees. New York isn’t very different. In Chicago, April dips into the 40’s and in Maine the minimum temperature is a chilly 38 degrees. In contrast, Florida’s average April temperatures are comfortable and warm with a high of 77 degrees, accommodated by a crisp, salty sea breeze. Outdoor activities are never off-limits and gathering with family and friends is easier when the sun is shining. **The Florida Sunshine Works Wonders** Sunshine and warm weather are proven to boost mood, regulate stress levels, and improve physical health – so the chances are you’ll be happier and healthier living at Marina Pointe. Sunlight sends signals to your body to produce more of the “happy” hormone, serotonin, while also telling your body to produce less of the stress hormone, cortisol. A little more peace and a lot less stress couldn’t hurt. In a sunny environment, you’re much more likely to stay active and enjoy outdoor exercise. Your heart and lungs will thank you in the fresh, warm air and the extra dose of vitamin-D works to strengthen your bones. With miles of lush trails, an outdoor Zen Garden, a resort-style pool, and a Bocce court with stunning views of the bay, you’ll have every opportunity to enjoy yourself in the sun. After a day on the water or sunbathing on the beach, you’ll find it easier to relax into a restful night’s sleep. Wake up to a candy-colored sunrise and bask in its glow as you sip your morning beverage on your private veranda. Sunny days await you at Marina Pointe.

While fast-casual options are trending, restaurateurs also are anticipating pent-up demand for sit-down dining as the industry recovers from the pandemic. **Content:** ![](/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Aerial-view-of-street-level-experience.jpg) Tampa’s dining scene is on fire, and 2022 looks like it’ll be adding plenty of fuel. While fast-casual options are trending, restaurateurs also are anticipating pent-up demand for sit-down dining as the industry recovers from the pandemic. Here’s a closer look at what two of Tampa’s biggest redevelopment areas plan to bring to the table in 2022, from international brands to celebrity chefs and one-of-a-kind new concepts. **Water Street Tampa** There’s a lot of buzz around what’s coming to Water Street Tampa. At 56 acres, the $3.5-billion downtown-waterfront project by Strategic Property Partners (SPP) is one of the largest mixed-use developments in the nation. With major players at the helm — investors Jeff Vinik (Tampa Bay Lightning’s owner) and Bill Gates’ Cascade Investment — it’s garnering widespread attention and high hopes. There are plans for 1 million square feet of retail, and over a dozen retail vendors have already been announced. In November, SPP shared the names of three food and beverage venues coming to the ground floor of Cora and Heron apartment towers. Opening in Cora in spring 2022 are Small Giant Bar & Restaurant, a new neighborhood bar and grill, and Wine on Water, a modern wine and liquor shop. Small Giant will serve craft beers and cocktails and introduce Ohio-style pizza to Tampa. Next door, Wine on Water will offer over 500 selections of wine and liquor, with a focus on small-production wines, an outdoor garden and educational classes and tastings. “We see the vision that the Water Street Tampa team has of the burgeoning neighborhood, and we’re excited to be part of the fabric of life for those that work and live here,” says owner Jennifer Bingham, who also founded Tampa-based Cru Hospitality group (Cru Cellars) with Torrey Bingham. ![](/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Indoor-Outdoor-Dining.jpg) Renderings of Water Street Tampa’s dining scene. Courtesy of Strategic Property Partners At Heron, The Pearl will make its Tampa debut from Cameron Mitchell Restaurants, the company behind upscale seafood and steakhouse Ocean Prime. The restaurant, tavern and oyster room will serve shareable plates, cocktails and more in an eclectic, stylish atmosphere. SPP also just announced that Hampton Chocolate Factory’s flagship store will join the trendy outdoor food hall Sparkman Wharf, Water Street Tampa’s first retail project that opened in 2018. The artisan dessert shop founded in The Hamptons will serve high-end indulgences by Tampa’s top local pastry chefs, as well as frozen desserts and shakes. “Water Street Tampa will become a new culinary epicenter of Tampa, with everything from locally owned cafes to high-end restaurants by Michelin-starred chefs to lively shipping containers featuring innovative fare,” says Lee Schaffler, Chief Portfolio Officer for SPP. We’re establishing a destination dining scene and are thrilled to bring so many diverse options to the community.” Tampa’s first five-star hotel, The Tampa EDITION, is gearing up to open in early 2022 and aims to become a culinary focal point for the city. With it will come seven highly anticipated food and beverage outlets overseen by acclaimed restaurateur and chef John Fraser. “We’ll be part of every day from early breakfast all the way to the end of the night on both food and cocktails, and we hope to have a signature restaurant that competes with the best of what’s there now,” says Fraser, a longtime collaborator with EDITION, including the Times Square and West Hollywood locations. Known for redefining the role of vegetables in American cuisine, Fraser plans to bring that flare to Tampa. The Los Angeles native also draws inspiration from California’s neighborhood bars and comfort food. He envisions creating memorable dining experiences in The Tampa EDITION, “elevating it to an art form” with elements of surprise and small touches like tableside food and drink preparations. “I threw my hat in the ring almost immediately for Tampa,” Fraser says. “Water Street Tampa is a world class development. You have world-class architects, a world-class developer, and as I see the tenant roster build up, world-class restaurants and retail.” To that tune, Water Street Tampa already has attracted one international restaurant brand and it wouldn’t be surprising if there were more to come. Wagamama will make its Florida debut in early 2022, when it brings its Asian-inspired cuisine to the base of 1050 Water St., a forthcoming residential development. “Wagamama appreciates attention to detail and is a first-to-market retailer with a lively dining experience, which is exactly what we’re pursuing at Water Street Tampa,” SPP’s Schaffler says. With over 200 locations, Wagamama puts a modern take on classic Asian-fusion food. Its menu features noodle and rice dishes, shareable sides, craft cocktails, freshly pressed juices, hot drinks, wine, sake and Asian beers. “With our fresh, flavorful cuisine and engaged, social atmosphere, Wagamama is ideally suited for the Tampa market,” says Richard Flaherty, co-CEO of Wagamama USA. “We knew Water Street Tampa, with its focus on community and vibrant street-level programming, was the perfect fit for our high-quality, high-energy dining experience.” Wagamama will join a variety of restaurants already open throughout the neighborhood, including Naked Farmer, 3 Corners, Noble Rice, BurgerFi, The Battery, Fit Bowl Co., Superfood Bar, Murph’s BBQ, Jotoro, Edison’s Swigamajig, Gallito, Flock and Stock, and LightHaus Beer Garden. ![](/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Existing-Wagamama-in-NYC-Credit-Courtesy-of-Wagamama.jpg) Asian-inspired international restaurant chain Wagamama, pictured in New York City, plans to open in Water Street Tampa. Courtesy of Wagama. **West Shore Boulevard** West Shore Boulevard also is experiencing a restaurant renaissance on both ends. At its north, Westshore City Center, a 300,00-square-foot 1970s office property, is being renovated by Ally Capital. Breakfast chain First Watch opened in October. But the showstopper will be Union New American, a unique, two-story, upscale modern American restaurant, private event space and nightclub with plans to open by spring 2022. The man heading up the concept has a strong track record of success in Tampa. Jeff Gigante co-founded Ciccio Restaurant Group (CRG), opening over 20 restaurants in 25 years. As CRG trended fast casual, Gigante broke off to focus on “polished, upscale casual dining.” His first foray was Forbici Modern Italian in 2019 in Hyde Park Village with friend and business partner Joe Guggino. Real estate executive Andrew Wright rounded out the group to create Next Level Brands, and their first project together is Union New American. “Something like this doesn’t really exist yet in Tampa,” Gigante says. “The sky’s the limit here. This is going to be a concept for the ages, a staple of the community.” Both floors of the 11,000-square-foot building will offer indoor and outdoor seating, but upstairs is where it’s taken to the next level with a scenic sunset view, as well as late-night music, creating an exclusive nightlife venue. “You’re going to feel transported to Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Chicago — and you’ll hear some of the greatest DJs on the planet,” Gigante says. The contemporary American menu was inspired by some of Gigante’s favorite chains growing up, such as Houston’s. A central element will be a fire hearth burning American white oak, where proteins and vegetables will be cooked. Expect premium steak, seafood, vegetarian and vegan options from Chef Adam Polisei, who recently migrated over to Next Level Brands from Tampa’s Ocean Prime, as did general manager Kal Harris. The “theatrical setup” also includes an unconventional kitchen window and large table pass where diners can see chefs assembling orders. As for the decor, Gigante describes it as “very chic.” After his partner Guggino dined at the Marcus Samuelson restaurant in Four Seasons Hotel Montreal, they tracked down and hired the design firm Atelier Zébulon Perron to design Union New American. They plan to commission local artist Jason Hulfish for some nontraditional pieces, promising “a lot of beautiful, shareable photo ops.” (Read more about Hulfish on Page 28.) About 5 miles south of the future site of Union New American lives Westshore Marina District. The former industrial boat yard in South Tampa was transformed into a 52-acre mixed-use bayfront community at the intersection of Gandy and West Shore boulevards. Ten years in the making, the $700-million project is nearly complete. At the heart of the district, Marina Landings Town Center encompasses almost 20,000 square feet of service-oriented retail, and its first restaurant, Tampa-based Cru Cellars, opened in May. Cincinnati’s Buzzed Bull Creamery and national franchises DRNK coffee + tea and QWENCH juice bar were planned to open this fall. Arguably the town center’s most exciting edition, celebrity chef Fabio Viviani’s national franchise Chuck Lager America’s Tavern is scheduled to open in early 2022. Diners can expect New American cuisine in a casual atmosphere, featuring gourmet burgers, flatbreads, pastas, handhelds and entrees, as well as cocktails, wine and beer, and an extensive bourbon and whiskey selection. “The restaurant is a perfect anchor for our roster of tenants and helps round out our restaurant offerings,” says Britney Mroczkowski, vice president of retail development with developer BTI Partners. Viviani, named Fan Favorite on Bravo’s Top Chef, relocated to the U.S. from Italy in 2005 and has opened over 30 restaurants across the nation. Chuck Lager is an adventurous traveler and foodie whom Viviani met in his grandmother’s kitchen. They are known to drop into their restaurants from time to time, so keep an eye out. Many new culinary adventures await Tampa’s diners. Perhaps the perfect New Year’s resolution is to explore the city’s latest restaurant additions in 2022.

BTI Partners, based in Fort Lauderdale, secured the loan from Bank OZK on Dec. 23, according to mortgage documents filed in Hillsborough County on Dec. 30. The first tower on Marina Pointe is 17 stories and includes 120 condos, 78 marina slips and 32,151 square feet of retail. The Westshore Marina District is a 52-acre mixed-use district on the Gandy waterfront, just south of the intersection of Gandy and Westshore boulevards. It includes rental and for-sale housing, retail and restaurant space. BTI and Connecticut-based Westford Capital Partners are joint venture partners in the development. BTI CEO Noah Breakstone said in a statement that a “migration” of residents from the Northeast and Midwest since the onset of the pandemic is fueling demand for the condominiums in Marina Pointe. Eventually, Marina Pointe will be home to two additional towers totaling 227 units and additional marina slips. The first condo tower will see residents move in in 2022, BTI said. Condos range from 1,750 to over 4,500 square feet and will include a 24-hour concierge, fitness center, amenity deck overlooking the marina, resident club with entertainment room and virtual golf simulator among other amenities. Eric McGlynn, Walker & Dunlop managing director in Miami, arranged the construction financing. Bank OZK also holds a construction loan that’s among the largest ever issued in Hillsborough County, a $664.1 million loan issued to the developer of Water Street Tampa in 2019. “Marina Pointe embodies the high standards Bank OZK consistently seeks in its project financings — marquee real estate, strong market fundamentals and top-tier sponsorship,” said Greg Newman, managing director, originations, at Bank OZK’s real estate specialties group, in a statement.
