Florida YIMBY has an update regarding a residential tower in Tampa. Our May 2024 report indicated that construction had started on the venture’s first phase, which features an 11-story tower with 234 residences. Now, sources have revealed that the building has topped off, bringing the project closer to its anticipated summer 2027 completion.
Gallery at Rome Yards will feature a mix of affordable, workforce, and at-market-rate housing units. Specifically, 43 percent of the homes will be workforce housing, and another 27 percent will be affordable housing. Five units will be designated as live/work units, giving residents the freedom to operate small businesses from home.

Residency is reserved for tenants earning at or below 20, 80, and 140 percent of the area median income (AMI). Floorplans will range from one-bedroom to three-bedroom units. Future residents will have access to a variety of amenities, along with 230 structured parking spots.
Gallery at Rome Yards will also feature a workforce training center, which will span 3,800 square feet and operate in partnership with West Tampa Community Development Cooperation. The 11-story project is slated to be part of a larger development that will host retail, residential, and commercial space, with 954 residences at full buildout.
Gallery at Rome Yards is unfolding at 2609 North Rome Avenue Tampa, FL, 33607, in Hillsborough County.
