From humble beginnings in the 1920’s as farm and grazing land, this area slowly grew into the premiere and expanding community it is today thanks to the perseverance of the Corr Family who saw the area as an incredible location for a community. First envisioned in the 1950’s, many developers tried to develop the remote and inhospitable area, but the Corr Family’s determination over four decades guided this area’s development into a place where people live, work, play, raise families and build legacies. Now home to almost 7,500 residents and just over 3,100 households, this luxuriant waterfront community boasts a variety of condos, townhomes and homes.  A seaside refuge from the hectic pace of city life, the South Shore area still has speedy access to Tampa’s downtown, airport and other amenities via I-75.
