Hyde Park is the small historic residential district immediately south of downtown Tampa, bounded by Bayshore Boulevard (the 4.5-mile bayfront promenade), the University of Tampa, and Howard Avenue. It's the densest concentration of pre-1925 housing stock in Tampa + one of the most-walkable urban neighborhoods in the state.
Median prices are now firmly in the $1M+ range; tear-down + custom-build activity is high on the smaller lots.
Bayshore Boulevard frontage (Bayshore Beautiful + nearby) carries an additional 50-100% premium over interior Hyde Park parcels. The neighborhood has resisted high-rise creep aggressively + has historic-overlay protection on the core blocks.
