West Tampa native and Hillsborough County Commissioner Gwen Myers is leading the charge to build an African American Arts and Cultural Center in the community.

The developer of Rome Yard said a third of its apartments will be affordable. Another third will be set aside for "workforce" income levels.

City of Tampa officials invited the community to attend a celebration surrounding an 18-acre Rome Yard Development Project for affordable housing.

A big, new development in Tampa is nothing unusual, but finding something affordable these days is the hard part.

Rome Yard project is expected to continue growth in West Tampa with retail, housing, and River Walk expansion.

It’s simple economics: when demand outstrips supply, costs go up, and in the case of Tampa‘s housing market, costs are soaring.

Even as people worry about inflation and the economy, the Tampa Bay building boom is still booming, at least for now.

A project is in the works to extend the popular Tampa Riverwalk along the west side of the Hillsborough River, and connect neighborhoods with miles of protected paths people can walk, bike or scoot on.
