S

pring is in the air, which means many homeowners are planning their next home project, whether it’s redecorating, renovating or finally getting around to that seemingly neverending to-do list. It’s why we publish our popular Annual Home Edition around this time each year — to help inspire and inform our readers as they research and plan their upcoming projects. It’s also the issue in which we celebrate South Tampa neighborhoods and their history.

If you’ve ever wondered how certain neighborhoods earned their names, turn to page 16 for your dose of local knowledge.

This edition also pays homage to one of South Tampa’s most quintessential home features: the front porch. There’s nothing like sitting on the front porch with family, friends and neighbors enjoying a glass of tea or wine. We sat down with three families and asked them to share what makes their porch so special. Curl up on your couch, porch or balcony and check it out on page 50.

Then, flip to our newest feature — a section we like to call South Tampa’s Little Black Book of Beauty. You’ll find local businesses whose sole goal is to help you look and feel your best.

Speaking of personal goals, how’s that New Year’s resolution coming? Stay on track and stay inspired with our Amazing Transformations (page 26), featuring stunning reader transformations guided by local physicians, orthodontists and trainers. The before and afters will leave you feeling speechless and ready to hit the gym. And don’t forget to like South Tampa Magazine on Facebook for exclusive offers and upcoming events!

The Ballast Point neighborhood features beautiful homes canopied by mature oaks with expansive canopies.

WHAT’s IN A NAME? For some South Tampa neighborhoods, it’s a mix of function, marketing and mystery Written By Marcy Sanford | Photography by Gabriel Burgos

Despite being one of the oldest and most culturally significant parts of the city, South Tampa’s history is fairly short – it was only developed about 100 years ago, at the start of the 20th century.

were especially desirable. During this time, developers were busy building beautiful homes for the city’s elite and encouraging northern residents to move to Florida.

“That era was a very dynamic period in American and Florida history,” said Gary Mormino, professor emeritus of Florida history at USF St. Petersburg.

“At the turn of the century, Tampa’s population was about 16,000, spiraling to about 53,000 in 1920.”

The names developers gave the neighborhoods they built are now a familiar part of South Tampa lore. Davis Islands were named for D.P. Davis, the man who developed them, while O.H. Platt named Hyde Park (South Tampa’s first planned neighborhood) after his hometown on the South Side of Chicago, Illinois.

According to Mormino there was plenty of room to expand, and, much like today, the neighborhoods near the water, like the ones in South Tampa, 16 | SouthTampaMagazine.com

So how did Ballast Point, Beach Park, Palma Ceia and Sunset Park get their names?

BOUNDARY BLVD

While houses were not built there until the early 1900s, Ballast Point was the one subdivision that came with a name.

Mormino says that the name came from the function of the area.

“Beginning in the 1850s and the decades following, Captain James McKay and others used Ballast Point as a port to ship cattle to Cuba,” he said. “The place was chosen because it enjoyed a deep natural harbor. The cattle were shipped on barges. When the empty ships returned to Tampa, the ballast contained big stones and rocks that were deposited along the bay.” Ships carried ballast, or extra weight in the form of heavy stones, to maintain stability in deep and rocky waters. Most ships had to deposit that ballast before entering Hillsborough Bay, a shallower body of water.

As the neighborhood began to grow in the late 19th century, Emelia Chapin, who owned Consumers Electric Light and Street Railway Company along with her husband, built a park complete with a pavilion, gazebo and pier in Ballast Point.

It soon became the “in” place for Tampa residents to enjoy a leisurely afternoon picnicking, strolling or swimming.

BEACH PARK In the early 1920s, local real estate developers formed the Beach Park Company and turned a primitive jungle teeming with alligators, snakes and other critters into a subdivision that they advertised in a 1924 magazine as a “home-place and show place of Florida’s most prosperous citizenry.”

Though they never did, developers initially wanted to

create a “beach and park” to attract new residents from the north. In the hopes that their plans would come to fruition (and in a sly bit of marketing), the subdivision was named Beach Park by the Bay, which evolved to today’s Beach Park.

Lots sold for $2,570 in the early ‘20s. The developers upheld strict building requirements to ensure a uniform style

for all homes – they had to be a Mediterranean design and feature stucco exteriors, terra-cotta roofs, interior and exterior archways and plenty of decorative tile.

“They even had rules about how many chickens you could have in your yard,” said Emmy Purcell Reynolds, a realtor and

former Beach Park Homeowners Association president.

The developers also built elaborate, illuminated gates at the corner of West Shore Boulevard and Cleveland Street that were so bright they could supposedly be seen from Pinellas County. You can still find the remains of a smaller set at the corner of Swann and Lois Avenues.

Hillsborough bay

The earliest maps of the area that is now known as Palma Ceia show an unnamed spring with a creek feeding into Hillsborough Bay. When Tampa attorney Thomas Palmer and his wife, Ruby, first began developing the neighborhood in 1903, they named it Madrid. Several years later, the Palmers submitted a revised Madrid subdivision plan with one interesting change. The spring was now called Palmera Spring, likely an homage to the family’s last name.

Palma Ceia features some of Tampa’s most expensive real estate.

From here it is all speculation. In 1910, Palmer teamed up with real estate developer James Taylor, who told the Jacksonville Times-Union that his company had sold land to an investor who would be building Palma Ceia and Palma Ceia Park. There are no records that explain why Palmer decided to change Palmera to Palma Ceia or abandon the name Madrid for his subdivision, but one plausible explanation is that he liked the sound of the already existing Terra Ceia in Manatee County and wanted to echo the name.

“I really enjoy the neighborhood, having lived in Sunset Park for over 22 years,” said Marlin Anderson, 22 | SouthTampaMagazine.com

president of the Sunset Park Homeowners Association. “It’s nice to see the old houses in the vicinity of Bay to Bay and West Shore Boulevards and to know that the neighborhood does have a history going back to the 1920s.”

W NEPTUNE ST

S MANHATTAN Ave

Located just south of Beach Park, Sunset Park was home to a beach, but little development, in 1916. However, that all began to change in the 1920s when the Sunset Park Company started building homes in the neighborhood, many of which are still there today. One of the developers, Charles Glover, was married OLD to a poet and pianist TAMPA named Alma, who is bay credited with naming the streets after wellknown poets like Alfred Tennyson, John Keats and Henry Wadsworth Longfellow.

Now Living Life to the Fullest Danielle’s Story

At the beginning of last year, I weighed more than I ever had, even at nine months pregnant. I was ready for a change, so I attended a weight loss seminar at the Florida Hospital Tampa Surgical Weight Loss Institute. Following the seminar I consulted with Dr. John Dietrick, who helped me decide that the gastric sleeve procedure would be the best choice. I had the procedure in April and have lost a total of 108 pounds.

Since losing the weight, I am more physically active and can do more for my family. Food is no longer my go-to comfort thanks to the training and support I received.

Before

John Dietrick M.D., F.A.C.S.

FHT-11745

The gastric sleeve procedure is one of the five surgical and nonsurgical bariatric options available at the Florida Hospital Tampa Surgical Weight Loss Institute. Following a thorough medical evaluation, Dr. Dietrick and Danielle determined the gastric sleeve procedure would be the best weight loss solution for her. In the procedure about 75 percent of the stomach is removed, leaving a sleeve, or tube-like structure, that remains. Reducing space in the stomach forces patients to eat properly and in moderation. In turn, patients like Danielle experience greater weight loss over time and have a tendency to keep the weight off having adapted to a healthier lifestyle.

Alexis’ Story Alexis and her mom came to Dr. Alex Gutiérrez when Alexis’ overbite and teeth crowding became overwhelming. She became uncomfortable with the way her teeth looked and was sometimes hesitant to smile, even while performing ballet on stage.

With her busy school and dance schedule, Alexis, her mother and Dr. Gutiérrez decided Invisalign Teen® would be a better option than traditional braces.

Before

Gutiérrez Orthodontics My approach to smile and facial esthetics is conservative in an effort to prevent extractions whenever possible and provide the best outcomes for my patients. I treated Alexis with a functional appliance in addition to Invisalign Teen®. This is a great option for teenagers because it is clear and transparent, so no one knows you’re wearing it. With her busy schedule and commitment to doing her part in her treatment, Alexis was an excellent candidate for Invisalign Teen®. Her new smile has given her great confidence while on and off the stage.

Making a Real Lifestyle Change Matthew’s Story

Matthew had tried to lose weight by going to many different classes and working with different trainers, always hoping for different results. The goal all along was not only to help him lose the weight but also get him started on a new path to a healthier lifestyle.

While the sweat equity invested paid off dearly, the first month was stressful on the team.

Each week was pre-planned, taking away any guesswork with the routine. Matthew visited Physique’s downtown gym five days a week for hour-long sessions. Many weeks he even came in on the weekends.

Keith Pacific of Physique Physical Therapy & Personal Training My goal was to help Matthew adopt a healthier lifestyle. It’s not just about losing a lot of weight. It’s also about learning how to live healthier and keep the weight off. I wanted him to make this livable, and I wanted him to understand that it didn’t have to be this extreme, life-altering change. I also taught Matthew how to eat foods that he’s supposed to eat. I wanted him to enjoy foods he likes, but it’s about portion control.

Consistency was key to weight loss Emily’s Story Emily has always struggled with her weight. She had joined gyms but never gave working out her full dedication. Emily wanted to lose the weight for her family.

Emily, who trained with Mike Tedford of True Grit Fit, dropped a total of 37 pounds and toned her body with a combination of strength and conditioning training, boot camp classes and diet changes.

“The number one most effective strategy for Emily was cleaning up her diet and staying consistent with her training sessions and morning cardio,” True Grit Fit’s Mike Tedford explained.

Mike Tedford of True Grit Fit “Mike and his wife, Letitia, at True Grit Fit truly care about getting you to your fitness goals,” says Emily. “They care about everyone who walks through their door.

You never feel intimidated because you learn we all have the same goal: to get healthy. True Grit Fit’s bootcamp classes are by far the best workout in Tampa Bay.

Welcoming Front Porches

Whether it’s used for entertaining guests or simply relaxing with a cold drink, a South Tampa porch is an extension of the home. While the area is known for historic bungalows, here are three different kinds of South Tampa homes with beautiful front porches.

Family Friendly On Jen and Derek Iavarone’s porch and adjacent driveway, their young family gathers to laugh and play after a long day at work and school. Declan, 5, and Malin, The carriage almost 2, take turns driving their red toy Land Rover, while their parents, who own Malio’s lamps on either Prime Steakhouse in Downtown Tampa, side of the front spend adult time enjoying a glass of wine on door add to the the porch greeting their neighbors on Villa home’s New Rosa Park. Jen enjoys buying and flipping houses, so the family moves every few years, Orleans-inspired but she said they have fallen in love with their French Provincial neighborhood. “I grew up always knowing the style. people on Villa Rosa were very family-oriented and super friendly,” she said. “There are a lot of good people on this street. The next house we buy just might have to be on Villa Rosa again.”

Cozy and Chic Though Maria and Rick Whitney certainly enjoy spending time on their front porch, it is really the favorite spot of their 9-year-old Chihuahua mix, Radar, who usually claims a perch in the center of the porch’s sofa.

“He’s always looking for a spot in the sun,” Maria Whitney said.

She and her husband bought the house new in 2012.

Their porch, which has an inlaid brick floor, is deeper than most, giving them more space to relax and more shady cover from the Florida sun.

“We said the next time we bought a house we wanted a front porch, so we specifically looked for a house with one,” Maria said about their current home.

She and her husband, who is the former president and CEO and current sales and estimating coordinator of their family-owned hauling company Trans-Phos, spend weekend mornings on their porch drinking coffee in their pajamas. During the week, they’ll catch up over a glass of wine in the late afternoon with Radar by their sides.

In a time when people seem to be ultra-connected to each other through their electronic devices, Maria said being out on the front porch is a way to interact with the community without the help of a digital device.

“It’s a way to monitor what’s going on in your neighborhood, and it’s a way to say hi to your neighbors in real life,” she said.

Bayshore Beauty For the Friedman family, there’s no better way to start the day than with breakfast on their expansive front porch, watching the world roll by from their Bayshore Boulevard home.

“I’ll sit out here with a bowl of cereal or plate of eggs and just take in the view,” Nick Friedman, the co-founder of College H.U.N.K.S. Hauling Junk & Moving, said.

Other times, Friedman and his wife, Jen, will relax on their white wooden rocking chairs, left by the home’s previous owner, while their almost-2-year-old daughter, Alena, runs up and down the porch with her baby doll’s stroller. From here, they have a prime viewing location for the Gasparilla parade and other events on Bayshore.

As part of the Friedmans’ renovation of the home in 2015-16, the front porch was completely rebuilt in the same footprint as the original. An additional room was constructed to the right of the porch to give the family a little more privacy on that side.

This home was Jen Friedman said the house’s history and location on built in 1912, and the corner of Newport Avenue played a huge role in the Friedmans their decision to purchase the home. purchased it “I love the character of old homes, like the pocket exactly 100 years doors and the inlaid floors,” she said. “The location later, in 2012. is so close to Hyde Park Village and downtown, and Newport is the most beautiful street.”

Her husband said spending time on Bayshore reminds him of his big city upbringing.

“I’m from Washington, D.C. originally, and I always say that Tampa feels like a small town with big city amenities,” Nick Friedman said. “Bayshore feels like the city.”
