Tampa approves premiere mixed-use development
|
Lafayette Place is a proposed mixed-use development near Downtown Tampa west of the Hillsborough River. Its' name recognizes the historical significance to the City of the Lafayette Street Bridge (the original bridge completed in 1889 was the first general traffic bridge across the Hillsborough River; its name was changed to Kennedy Boulevard Bridge in 1963). Reviewed by Planning Commission staff for consistency with the adopted Comprehensive Plan in January, the proposed rezoning was found consistent by Tampa City Council in February. Lafayette Place will offer three complementary 21st century structures on 5.81 acres and feature 690,000 sq ft of office uses, 60,000 sq ft of retail, 375 residential units, 350 hotel rooms, and an exciting Riverwalk extension along the western shore of the Hillsborough River.
