Tampa doesn’t announce itself. It shows up, in cigar smoke and neon, in bay light at dusk, and dares you to keep pace.

On this 813 Day, we’re honoring the city that built us. Ybor’s brick streets. The families who turned a port town into the South’s most compelling city.

Thanks to Tampa Bay History Center for the archival images bringing that story to life. Preservation is its own kind of luxury.

METRO community: you make this city feel like home. And to celebrate, we’re giving away two sets of 4 tickets to the Tampa Bay History Center.

Drop an 813 and tell us what makes Tampa home, in the comments. Two winners announced next week, on Wednesday. 813 forever.

There’s a certain rhythm to life on this side of the bridge. Rooftop sunsets, sugar sands that keep people coming back for more, and a downtown that surprises people who haven’t visited in a few years.

Today, Pinellas County gets its own day on the calendar. 727 and proud of it.

Happy 139th, Tampa. 🎉

From a sleepy cigar town to the crown jewel of the Gulf Coast, this city has never stopped becoming itself. Water Street’s skyline. Bayshore’s sunsets. A downtown that finally caught up to its own potential.

Tampa Bay METRO has had a front-row seat as the area’s premiere luxury city lifestyle magazine, and we’re not done watching this city write its next chapter.

Cheers to 139 years. 🥂
