Tampa in the 1920s was called the “Manhattan of the South.”

With booming cigar factories in Ybor and West Tampa, the city was one of the fastest-growing economies in America. Landmarks like the Tampa Theatre and Hotel Floridan were built during this era, attracting some of the biggest names to visit and invest. But when the Great Depression hit and the cigar industry collapsed, so did Tampa’s momentum, leaving behind a history of what could have been.

Episode 147 is available on all major podcast platforms.
