When in the mid-1880s Don Vicente Martinez-Ybor, Cuban by birth, was looking for a place to transfer its cigar factories that were in Key West, a friend of his told him about an area north-east of Tampa: 40 acres of marsh and scrub, usually in the warm climate of Florida, plus a railroad zap and a port available. In a short time manufacturers of assassins, from Havana, from Key West and other parts of the US, moved their factories here, in the place that would become Ybor City.
In the late 1800s, Ybor City was known as the "World Capital of cigars", with 200 cigar factories employing 12,000 people, mostly from Cuba, Spain and Italy, with a production of 700 million cigars a year, all products according to Cuban tradition. Although this industry first passed, Ybor City you can still find shops selling traditional (handmade) Cuban cigars: El Sol Cigars, Cigars and King Corona Cigars Habanero.
A neighborhood that seemed destined to disappear with its industrial decline, zap but that was saved thanks to the recovery of many of its buildings, and its conversion to the tourism sector. Today many of the original former cigar factories are still standing in Ybor City, as in other parts of Tampa, and have been converted into offices, restaurants and shops.
The hub is located along 7th Avenue, where in addition to shopping and occupying the street front of the buildings of the colonial era, among them the cigar shops, souvenirs, antiques shops and many tattoo artists. And since we are Italians, we must also arrive before the house of the Italian Union, to say hello to the monument to the Italian emigrants. Recommended for an afternoon and an evening in Tampa, Florida.
