Port Tampa

The view from way, way, way, South of Gandy in Tampa, Florida. (So far south you can hear them chasing birds away from the runway at MacDill.)

Ashton Woods Update

According to sales personnel at their South Green development, Ashton Woods is clearing property on the west side of the far south end of Westshore. A drive down there yesterday confirmed that all old vehicles and other junk that occupied this property is gone. They plan to start construction on four model homes in September, but the person I talked to couldn't remember if they would be on Shamrock or Sparkman. That means the models and sales office will not be located on the Westshore site. The homes will be similar to the South Green houses that are nearly sold out and priced from the high 500s to low 700s, options extra of course.

There was evidence of illegal dumping on the right of way at the end of Westshore so I'll let you know how the city responds to my complaint.

I belive FS Properties owns the land on S. Westshore to Sparkman. Searching the property appraisers web site the Ashton Woods land is on Sparkman going east to Manhatan and north to the Inland Project.
http://www.hcpafl.org/www/index.shtml On the clerks website it does show that Ashton Woods has granted FS Properties sevral easments.
http://207.156.115.73/or_wb1/or_sch_1.asp FS Properties could be a part of the Ashton Woods Company?

Anonymous-Thanks for contributing. You sure can't tell the players without a program. I think you're right about FS Properties having a relationship with Ashton Woods. Land acquisition services perhaps? I also think the person I spoke to might have mixed up her directions and Ashton Woods' houses would be on the east side of Westshore, not west. Either way, it appears both sides of the street are being prepped for construction action.
