Located on Downtown Tampa’s Riverfront, the Rome Yard Master Plan is set to transform a vacant City of Tampa maintenance yard into a $260+ million mixed-use and mixed-income neighborhood. A joint venture between Related Urban, Tampa Housing Authority, and the City of Tampa, Rome Yard will include 954 mixed-income units comprising rental and for-sale options for mixed-income households. Several hundred units will be dedicated for workforce and / or affordable households in the historic West Tampa community.
The master plan is a resilient and sustainable hub that will revitalize the area with expansive neighborhood amenities including new “micro” retail opportunities for local entrepreneurs; new green space; a new community amphitheater; a West Tampa Job Training Center; a brick observation “cigar” tower paying homage to West Tampa’s history; and a new West Tampa Arts and Cultural Center programmed in partnership with local historians.
