Water Street Tampa

Water Street Tampa is a transformative real estate project in downtown Tampa, Florida developed by Strategic Property Partners ("SPP"). The project includes rental apartments, for-sale condominiums, three luxury hotels, two office buildings, the University of South Florida Morsani College of Medicine, over 175,000 square feet of retail, and entertainment uses across over 40 acres of land, with a total project cost for this initial phase exceeding $2 billion. James Nozar was the founding CEO of SPP and formed a full-service in-house development and operating company, led the team through master-planning, design, entitlements, marketing, retail merchandising, infrastructure design and development, municipal TIF financing and administration, and complex public/private site acquisitions. Under James' leadership, 5 million square feet of vertical construction was completed and delivered, transforming and revitalizing downtown Tampa. James continues to advise SPP on the future phases of the project, which could total an additional 5 million square feet of development.
