This 2-story, 18,000 sf Class A office building for Smith & Associates Realty Company, draws its inspiration from the Mediterranean Revivalarchitecture common to this part of South Tampa and to much of Florida. The through-building entry loggia harkens back to the open-air loggias of historic Palm Beach. The plan is uniquely configured to enable the building to be divided among eight separate office tenants. The building’s use of traditional colors, materials and proportions create an instant classic. It also succeeds as an urban infill project as it provides quality new development in what was once a blighted, nondescript location in the center of a thriving community.
