What gives residents of the Tampa Bay region a sense of place? How about the downtown Tampa skyline? The wealth of arts venues in Tampa, St. Petersburg, Clearwater and Sarasota? The neighborhoods filled with bungalows, rails-to-trails and beaches that connect  communities? There's Dunedin's Main Street. And Bartow's Courthouse. And Bradenton's Village of the Arts. And Lakeland's lake homes. There are spectacular planned communities like Lakewood Ranch, Fishhawk Ranch and Westchase. There are superb medical facilities like Moffitt Cancer Center, All Children's Hospital and Tampa General, and exceptional colleges and universities like USF, HCC, Eckerd, Stetson and New College. There are fabulous golf courses, public parks and riverfront properties. And what about all those Third Places, where we hang out when we're not at work and we're not at home? Those places and so much more make up the unique fabric of the Tampa Bay environment and give us a sense of place that residents are lucky enough to call home.
