Hyde Park spreads out along Bayshore Boulevard, a historic Tampa neighborhood of bungalows whose ZIP code is 33606. Here you feel the draw that comes from a close proximity to Downtown and the University of Tampa, and you can see why this mix of historic homes and bungalows has remained desirable. Walks here take you past Hyde Park Village and SoHo, and you can almost hear the hum of an upscale shopping and dining destination being expanded nearby.
Developers are also adding multifamily residential developments, a sign of change woven into long-standing streets. The neighborhood’s rough edges are easy to trace: Hillsborough Bay to the east, Kennedy Boulevard to the north, Bayshore Boulevard wrapping the east and south, and Armenia Avenue to the west. Major thoroughfares — Kennedy Boulevard, Bayshore Boulevard, the Lee Roy Selmon Expressway (SR 618), Howard Avenue, and Swann Avenue — shape how people move through the district.
Entrepreneurs have even started small companies using NEVs to shuttle pedestrians from here to Downtown and Ybor City, linking Hyde Park to other core neighborhoods. Bayshore Boulevard, Hyde Park Village, and the University of Tampa all wait along your path, with the city stretching out beyond.
