ONE Tampa stands the tallest Downtown

Through hurricanes, combative weather and two years of construction, ONE Tampa reached its full 42-story height on Friday. The Downtown high rise will be Tampa’s tallest residential building, adding 225 luxury condos to the ever-growing Downtown environment. Of the 225 units, nearly 70% of them have sold, and residents will be closing and moving in sometime next Fall.

The building amenities will include terraces, over-sized walk-in closets, full-height windows, and other luxury features for the residents. ONE Tampa will be in a prime location of Downtown, located close to the Tampa Riverwalk, Straz Center, Curtis Hixon Waterfront Park and other Downtown attractions.
