Three years ago, David Buck was just another homeless man seen in the area around Ybor City.
“I had zero hope, I had already given up,” Buck told FOX 13.
But some prayerful counseling helped him realize it was time to make a change.
He knew that he couldn’t have success at anything unless have gave up drinking. So that’s where he started.
“Three things happened to me in three days,” he said. “I got sober, I got a place to live, and I got a job.”
And that job on the Clean Team for the Tampa Downtown Partnership puts him in a unique position to give back to the Tampa homeless community he came out of.
“It gave me a spark of hope,” he said.
Buck now walks his beat doing clean up and counseling. He said he never wanted a handout from anyone.
“I have to put the work in. Nobody’s getting me up in the morning, I’m getting myself up to go to work, to take two buses,” he explained. “It’s not about me liking it, it’s about what’s necessary.”
So he spreads his success story with other homeless people he runs into in the downtown area.
“It’s about overcoming and not settling for where you’re at,” he said.

World-renowned chef and restaurateur Richard Sandoval announced the opening of Garrison Tavern, the first of his only two restaurants in the Tampa Bay area, located within the newly rebranded Tampa Marriott Water Street on April 10. Formerly known as the Tampa Marriott Waterside Hotel & Marina, the hotel’s rebrand speaks to its prime location in the city’s most anticipated urban neighborhood, Water Street Tampa. Garrison Tavern, a craft kitchen and social house, welcomes hotel guests, visitors and the Tampa Bay community.
Chef Sandoval’s “made from scratch” approach and passion for bringing innovative cuisine and authentic experiences to the world are brought to life at Garrison Tavern with his use of inventive culinary techniques and presentations – creating a sense of place where social connections and gatherings can take place.
“Food to me is a very social experience, and at Garrison Tavern, our emphasis is on re-energizing familiar dishes and presenting them in a way that creates community and social connection – sharing with those around you,” said Richard Sandoval, CEO/Founder of the global Richard Sandoval Hospitality group.
“Tampa’s culinary scene is very unique and vibrant, and we’re excited to offer a new twist on a classic concept at a central location along the Tampa Riverwalk.”
Garrison Tavern offers a contemporary twist on the age-old concept of the tavern – a social house where locals and visitors can gather together over good food and conversation, or for a sporting game. Providing guests with a complete dining and entertainment experience, Garrison Tavern is a one-of-a-kind space in Tampa’s evolving culinary scene and boasts the first Topgolf Swing Suite in Florida, which offers an immersive, virtual sporting experience. Modern and relaxed décor perfectly complement the open layout with communal tables, while the menu is chef-driven and punctuated by locally sourced ingredients and craft beer.
“Our team here at the Marriott Water Street is thrilled to partner with Chef Sandoval and to bring his vision to a new audience,” said Ron McAnaugh, General Manager of the Tampa Marriott Water Street. “In creating this concept, we want to provide the comfort and familiarity of a sports bar while exceeding expectations, with an emphasis on high-quality food and an entertainment experience that goes beyond just a place to watch games.”
Sandoval’s modern expression of shareable American favorites has been thoughtfully created to pair with a robust selection of craft beers, the majority of which are planned to be local to the Tampa Bay area. Menu highlights will include Garrison Tavern’s Butcher’s Burgers, made from Florida-raised grass-fed beef and house ground on site by the hotel’s in-house butcher; Fried Chicken Wings in four different flavors including Traditional Buffalo, Korean Hot, Bourbon & Rye BBQ and Honey Sriracha; House Smoked Cheddar & Jalapeno Sausage and Tampa Garlic Dill Fries with Horseradish Tartar.
Design and Atmosphere
The new 265-seat venue features world-class interior design from The Johnson Studio at Cooper Carry, an Atlanta-based team of skilled architects and designers. Guests will be welcomed by the fresh interiors with reclaimed wood, deep navy blues, and other natural elements and colors that are inspired by the nearby waterfront. Garrison Tavern boasts white brick interiors, custom lighting elements, rustic wood tops and new outdoor patio seating with direct street access. Paying homage to the neighborhood taverns of the past, Garrison Tavern’s inherently approachable atmosphere evokes the spirit of camaraderie and social gathering with a centralized bar and large communal tables.
Garrison Kolsch, Exclusively Brewed for Garrison Tavern by Coppertail Brewing Co. Inspired by Tampa’s brewing culture, Garrison Tavern’s extensive beer menu will highlight 20 locally crafted brews on tap, including Garrison Kolsch, a signature brew created in partnership with Coppertail Brewing Co., the award winning independently owned production brewery in the historic Ybor City neighborhood.
Garrison Kolsch is a Florida-inspired beer with a delicate, light fruity flavor and a dry, medium hoppy finish. Served exclusively in house at the hotel, Crowlers, canned Growlers, will be available for purchase.
Sports and Recreation
Neighboring Amalie Arena, home of the National Hockey League’s Tampa Bay Lightning team, Garrison Tavern serves as a perfect pre, during and post-game locale. Two large media walls, consisting of nine screens each, and over 35 individual TVs, will be spread throughout the venue where various sporting events will be broadcasted at all times.
Additional elements of sports culture can be felt throughout the Garrison Tavern experience with an emphasis on friendly competition – from giant Jenga and shuffleboard to a Topgolf Swing Suite, an extension of the Topgolf brand, and the first of its kind in Florida. Garrison Tavern’s Topgolf Swing Suite features two bays and offers a new way to play through an interactive social experience. With engaging screens, the Swing Suite delivers a one-of-a-kind experience for athletes and non-athletes alike to enjoy a variety of simulated multi-sport games including golf, dodgeball, hockey, baseball and football.
Garrison Tavern will be open for lunch and dinner service from 11:00 am – 2:00 am, seven days a week.
University of Tampa Begins Construction on ‘Transformative’ Fine Arts Building
Demolition of the Edison Building at the project site located at the southwest corner of North Boulevard and Spaulding Drive is scheduled to begin on May 7.
The University of Tampa has commenced construction on the Ferman Center for the Arts building, a new four-story, 90,000-square-foot structure that will provide space for the university’s fine and performing arts.
A groundbreaking for the project was held last Friday and demolition of the Edison Building at the project site located at the southwest corner of North Boulevard and Spaulding Drive is scheduled to begin on May 7. The Ferman Center for the Arts building is set to be completed by fall of 2020.
The Ferman Center for the Arts building, named in honor of longtime university supporters—the Ferman family—will include a recital hall, a 200-seat black box theater, classrooms, practice rooms, art and dance studios, faculty and administrative offices, student study spaces and more.
University officials say the central focus of the building will include a multi-use lobby space that provides gallery walls for displaying art work, which leads into another area for music and dance performances. Above the elevated performance area is a combination study and gallery. The two are connected by an artistic, circular stair, which features a performance stage mid-landing that is suitable for musical performances, readings or addresses to a crowd.
The Ferman Center for the Arts is slightly larger than the six-story Graduate and Health Studies building, which opened in Fall 2018 and is currently the university’s largest academic building. The Ferman Center’s architecture will feature glass, wood, red-brick and steel to complement other campus buildings, including the iconic Plant Hall. The interior will be a contemporary, functional, dynamic space that exudes creativity and innovation, the university notes.
UT President Ron Vaughn says, “UT’s reputation is rapidly escalating nationally and internationally. Continuing to advance our fine and performing arts programs is very much part of this effort. This building will elevate this whole set of college programs as well as further enhance UT’s reputation.”
The new building will be designed and constructed to be a candidate for Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) certification by the U.S. Green Building Council. If successful, it will be UT’s eighth LEED-certified building.
David Gudelunas, dean of the College of Arts and Letters, says, “By bringing together the performing and visual arts that are currently scattered around campus in inherited spaces, the stunning new facility will facilitate collaboration, creative synergies and cross-disciplinary teamwork. This is so important in not just artistic fields, but the myriad of professional contexts where our students end up after graduation.”
The University of Tampa has completed a host of new buildings in the past five years, including the West Walker Hall (2014), the Daly Innovation and Collaboration Building (2015), the Kennedy/Boulevard Academic Building (2016) the Graduate and Health Studies Building (2018) and the Southard Family Building, the former Riverside Center building, which opened in late March of this year. In addition, numerous other residence halls, athletic facilities, parking garages and administrative buildings have also been completed in recent years.

Riverwalk Place Condo Nears Groundbreaking
Nearly four years after it was proposed as a pioneering, mixed-use vision for the downtown Tampa waterfront, the 53-story Riverwalk Place is inching toward a groundbreaking.
Riverwalk Place, which first went public in July 2015 with plans to stack luxury condominiums over top office space, parking and street-level storefronts, filed a revised design plan with the city in mid-April that reveals for the first time how many condos the developers are planning — 288.
The 2015 proposal included 203 condos on top of office space.
The developers — a partnership of Tampa’s Feldman Equities and West Palm Beach-based Two Roads Development — said they were scrapping plans for office space in November 2018 and that they would devote the entirety of the tower, save for the street-level retail, to condominiums.
Since then, the developers would say only that the tower would have “more than 200” units, never revealing an exact number. The filing also shows the tower will include 20,300 square feet of enclosed retail and restaurant space as well as 5,000 square feet of outdoor seating.
The tower is proposed at the intersection of Ashley Drive and Brorein Street, on the last vacant waterfront parcel in the central business district. The adjacent CapTrust Building will be demolished to make way for the tower, and the developers said Wednesday that internal demolition is underway within the CapTrust Building.
However, a timeline for beginning vertical construction on Riverwalk Place is yet to be revealed. In a typical condo development, 60 percent of units have to be presold before construction will begin. For Riverwalk Place, that would equal roughly 173 condos, though the developers have said the value of reservations, not the number of units, will drive construction.
The total number of condos could still fluctuate if buyers decide to combine units, said Reid Boren, managing partner of Two Roads.
“We have built-in flexibility with the tower, and we expect the total residential count to evolve as buyers make their selections and indicate their preferences,” Boren wrote in an email via a spokesman for the developers.
The developers secured a $24.5 million loan for the first phase of construction in late 2018.
“External demolition could commence later this month, depending on progress inside,” Boren said via email.
Boren declined to offer any specifics on presales or when reservations might convert to contracts (deposits at the contract stage become nonrefundable). At the end of 2018, the developers said the value of reservations totaled $80 million.
“We are pleased with pre-sales and there continues to be strong interest in the building and the market,” Boren said.

Hilton Tampa Downtown Sells for $101 Million
In one of Tampa Bay’s largest-ever hotel transactions, the Hilton Tampa Downtown has sold for $101 million.
Only the Tampa Marriott Waterside and the Hilton Clearwater Beach have commanded higher prices.
CrossHarbor Capital Partners closed this week on buying the 520-room, full-service Hilton in the heart of downtown Tampa, according to the deed filed in Hillsborough County court records.
“I think the Hilton transaction represents further evidence that Tampa is a high-profile institutional market that attracts substantial investor interest,” said Daniel Peek, senior marketing director of HFF, which handled the sale and financing.
The hotel at 211 N Tampa St. last sold in late 2012 for $63 million. The group that bought it then converted it from a Hyatt to a Hilton and spent millions of dollars on renovations.
Although the new owners may invest some additional money, “it’s a well-renovated hotel that’s not necessarily in need of a lot of work,” Peek said, adding that it will remain a Hilton.
Built in 1982 on just over 5 acres, the 18-story Hilton has a rooftop sun deck, fitness center, heated outdoor pool, a Starbucks and two restaurants. It is near several “demand generators,” including Tampa General Hospital, the cruise port and Amalie Arena, and is within walking distance of the planned $2 billion office, retail and residential development spearheaded by Tampa Bay Lighting owner Jeff Vinik.
HFF has handled numerous bay area hotel transactions, including last year’s $134 million sale of the 416-room Hilton Clearwater Beach and this year’s $21.25 million sale of the 261-room Sheraton Suites Tampa Airport Westshore.
The largest hotel transaction in Tampa Bay history was the $199 million sale of the Marriott Waterside Resort & Marina two years ago to Strategic Property Partners, a joint venture between Vinik and Cascade Investment LLC.
The Hilton sale comes as Tampa and Hillsborough County are enjoying a boom in tourism. Last year, a record 20.9 million people visited the county, pumping an estimated $3.5 billion into the local economy.
The Hilton deal is the second bay area property sale topping $100 million announced in the past two weeks. A Phoenix-based real estate investment trust bought the huge Amazon distribution center in Ruskin for $103.6 million in the largest industrial sale in bay area history.

State Approves Funds To Complete USF Heart Institute In Water Street
The Florida House and Senate passed a key piece of funding needed for the University of South Florida to complete its $173 million project.
USF’s budget request from the state this year was $14.6 million and the university received $12.4 million in the budget, which was approved earlier this week.
However, it will not be final until it is signed by the governor, a USF spokesman told the Tampa Bay Business Journal.
It was critical for USF to receive the final piece of funding this year to complete the construction of the USF Health Morsani College of Medicine and Heart Institute, Dr. Charles Lockwood, senior vice president for USF Health and dean of the Morsani College of Medicine, previously told TBBJ.
The institute will be an anchor of the $3 billion, mixed-use Water Street districtthat Strategic Property Partners is planning between the Channel district and central business district.
USF previously received $97.89 million through funds from the Public Education Capital Outlay Trust Fund.
Through philanthropy and auxiliary funds, the school collected just over $40 million. Now that number has increased to $60 million, a USF spokesman said.
The facility is expected to open on schedule for December. Once open, it will have wet lab space, clinical trials, meeting spaces and will house 1,800 students. It will also replace the current USF Health Morsani College of Medicine and Heart Institute at the main campus.
The institute is projected to have an estimated $66 million to $73 million annual economic impact in Tampa Bay. It’s also expected to help the university receive National Institutes of Health funding.
