TECO plans move to Midtown Tampa

In one of Tampa’s biggest corporate real estate deals in recent history, Tampa Electric Co. and Peoples Gas will move headquarters from downtown Tampa to a new office tower in Midtown Tampa.

In October, Midtown developers the Bromley Cos. filed plans with the city of Tampa indicating a single corporate tenant was likely to fill most of its forthcoming 17-story, 400,000-square-foot office tower, Midtown East. MORE

TRANSPORTATION + PLANNING

Counting pedestrians to plan for the future of Westshore

Westshore Alliance installed pedestrian counting devices at three intersections as part of our work with the City of Tampa, Plan Hillsborough, and FDOT. The intersections are planned locations for new pedestrian facilities: Rocky Point Drive and the Courtney Campbell Causeway (pictured), and Gray Street at Lois Avenue and Himes Avenue. More information about these projects and data collected will be discussed at our upcoming Transportation Committee meetings. To join the committee, email Director of Transportation and Planning, Kevin O’Hare. You can register for all meetings on our events page.
