Bayshore Boulevard runs along an arm of Tampa Bay known as Hillsborough Bay. And along Bayshore boulevard runs a wide sidewalk with a balustrade that is generally considered the longest continuous sidewalk in the world at 4.5 miles. Popular with joggers, cyclists, walkers and skaters, Bayshore boulevard is also home to some of Tampa’s finest single family homes along with most of Tampa’s highrise condominium buildings. Downtown and Channelside are just now seeing their first high rise projects completed.
In the last 3 years Bayshore boulevard has seen 3 new condominium projects completed. Parkside of One Bayshore at 275 Bayshore Blvd. was completed in 2005, while The Alagon and The Bellamy further south have just been recently completed. Of the 3, The Bellamy stands out to me as being the most impressive. Built by JMC Communities, The Bellamy was a finalist for the NAHB’s 2007 Pillars Of The Industry awards in the Best Highrise Condominium Community category (Parkside was the ultimate winner, however). The Bellamy has a beautiful lobby area with rich, dark wood finishes. The pool area, on the west side of the building is large and wonderfully landscaped with many large palms. Other amenities include a movie theater and wine cellar area with private storage lockers. Floor plans are very open with some very large outdoor terraces with fantastic views. Many units have terraces on both the east and west side of the unit.
There are 4 main floor plans, all of which are 3 bedroom/3 baths, and the units run the depth of the building from east to west, so they all have Bayshore/downtown views as well as views westward and of the pool area below. The views from The Bellamy are some of the best I’ve seen with regard to Bayshore boulevard high rise condominiums.
There are currently 16 units available (64 units total) at The Bellamy ranging from $945k for a 6th floor “C†unit to almost $6m dollars for the 21st floor penthouse. And is anything selling? A 9th floor “B†unit, listed by Toni Everett Co., sold for just over $1m just this week. The seller was the original purchaser and bought the unit for $885k. A 10th floor “D†unit, on the north side of the building and listed by Smith & Associates, sold in June for $1.4m and was sold by the original buyer who paid just over $1m for the property.

[...] Castillo Tower is comparable to The Bellamy on Bayshore and The Plaza Harbour Island, but the views at Castillo Tower are hard to beat. All units have views both westward and eastward, much like the Bellamy does. The terraces on the west side are all spacious, providing great waterfront views of Old Tampa Bay and downtown St. Petersburg. Sunsets, I’m sure, are spectacular. Castillo Tower also has its own clubhouse and pool as well. Condo fees are $.36 cents per square foot, considerably lower than some other new Tampa highrises. Here’s a neat video tour of a WCI condo tower. [...]
