Florida Project Spotlight
Retail Metal Building on Islamorada
This Spotlight features a retail metal building in The Florida Keys for the folks at Ocean Gardens. The project featured custom shaped windows on the gable ends to allow for as much light as possible inside the store and custom below eave canopies on the street facing sides.
Comfort and cooling costs dictated the use of high-r banding insulation in the roof which was left exposed for effect. Exposed HVAC ducting and custom nautical themed lighting add to the appeal of the interior. Custom finishes and quality interior buildout helped to make this project a stunning success.
Tampa Project Spotlight
Commercial Steel Building Erecting
This Spotlight features a time-lapse video of the erecting of the Coppertail Brewery in Tampa. The 67′ x 179′ building with an eave height of 31′ easily provided space for brewing equipment, while meeting the wind load requirements of the Florida Building Code.
Partial walls for masonry and a trolley beam for a 4 ton crane add to the complexity of this project. High-r banding insulation help to minimize building cooling costs while providing a comfortable environment. Be sure to check out the building when you visit the Coppertail Brewery and enjoy some of the mastery of their craft!
The History of Tampa
Originating from a pioneer community on the outskirts of Fort Brooke, the area was originally named “Tampa Town” with the name only later being shortened to Tampa.
The origin of the name itself is not entirely known and might be from the ancient language of Creek and appears in the form of “Tanpa” in the 16h century memoirs Hernando de Escalante Fontaneda.
Occupied for four years by Federal Troops after the end of the Civil War, Tampa emerged as a prosperous city with the discovery of phosphate (used to product fertilizers and other products).
The arrival of the railroad and founding of nearby Ybor City helped to propel Tampa to being one of the largest cities in Florida by the end of the 19th century. WWII contributed to Tampa’s growth with the construction of MacDill military installation and several airfields.
Population of Tampa exploded in the post-WWII era to an extent never repeated and during this time, Busch Gardens and the University of South Florida were among the major additions to Tampa.
Tampa is represented in three professional sports leagues: NFL, NHL, and MLB and has long been the choice location for MLB spring training facilities as well as minor lead baseball teams!
