Armature Works


1910 N Ola Ave
Tampa, FL 33602

… more pix on Yelp, Google Maps.

A relatively new water front space or the meeting spot, that includes Heights Public Market, an industrial market hall, that is a good place to linger: foods, stores, on the water – Hillsborough River, next to Ulele, near Water Works Park, not too far from Straz Performing Center, mere 0.8 miles away, which is the main reason we come here often: have dinner, then stroll on the Riverwalk to the concert @ Straz.

The red brick structure is converted from the 1910 depot for the Tampa Electric Street and Railway Co., per their site.

A couple of good restaurants that I return to:

Waterworks Park

1701 N Highland Ave,
Tampa, FL 33602

This redeveloped green space on the Hillsborough River, is within or next to the ArmatureWorks. It opened to the public in August 2014.

It’s one end of the RiverWalk, with an open lawn, children’s splash pad and playground, amphitheater and dog park.
