On March 6, dozens of community leaders and elected officials gathered to commemorate the official groundbreaking of Gas Worx, a 50-acre mixed-use development in Ybor City, Tampa. Gas Worx, a joint venture between KETTLER and its founder and CEO, Darryl Shaw, is between the Ybor Historic District and Channel District. Designed by Design Collective with Bohler as the structural engineer and Sasaki as the urban planner, the development will include nearly 5,000 new residences, over 500,000 square feet of office space, and more than 140,000 square feet of new retail.
