Description
This beautiful historic West Tampa Cigar Factory is a truly unique opportunity. Originally the original site of the Bustillo Bros. and Diaz Cigar Company in 1903. The 4 story, 33,334 SF structure is the second oldest cigar factory in West Tampa. It sits on a 1.3 acre lot which borders 3 streets. The basement has direct exterior grade level access, windows, groundwater pumps and is dry and usable. The 3 main floors are wide open with high ceilings and beautiful exposed red brick. All floors are accessible by staircase, although there is a freight only elevator which could be upgraded to a personnel lift. Previous owners made considerable investment into the structure with intent to relocate but their rapid expansion quickly required a much larger structure. From the ground up, safety and stability were paramount. Many structural repairs were made to the base pillars and added considerable structural steel. All subfloors were removed, additional lumber and laminated beams were added and a perfectly level subfloor was replaced, a rarity in these older structures. The interior brick was smoothed and almost the entirety of the property is surrounded by an ornate, custom fabricated fence and gates with interval columns. A buyer has the opportunity to finish the interior to their own taste and own a rare historical gem, a hallmark of Tampa's rich cultural history. Located in Old West Tampa, south of W. Columbus Ave and north of the Tampa Convention Center. Conveniently located very close to I-275 and I-4.
