An Interactive Itinerary - Local Tampa, FL
Tampa has a rich and tasty history. This city was the number one traveler’s destinations in the late 1800s. In the early 1900s we had a surge of cultural influence from our thriving immigrant communities, which provided a viable economy for the roaring 20s with our booze and hand-rolled cigar industry. With our stable economy, we pushed successfully into the 30s and 40s with no real lull during The Great Depression, which allowed our city to hone its cultural craft and create a tourism destination that, even today, we thrive in. As decades passed, many buildings and stories faded away, with only archive centers and family ties to keep our history alive.
