The Gentrification of Ybor City: It Has Begun

Construction on the long-awaited Gas Worx project in Tampa will begin in early 2023.

According to a spokeswoman for the developers, the plan is to break ground near the start of the year though an exact date is not yet known. “I think it would be fair to say like spring,” she says.

The first phase of the 40-acre project is a residential piece that will include 719 multifamily units on the site of the old Tampa Park Apartments. The first of the two buildings to come out of the ground will be made up of 315 units.

There is no timeline yet on when the first residents will move in.

Gas Worx is a massive redevelopment mostly in and around Tampa’s historic Ybor City neighborhood. When complete, it will include 5,000 new residences as well as 500,000 square feet of office space and more than 140,000 square feet of retail.
