The historic Ballast Point neighborhood is a beloved Tampa treasure that offers amazing views of downtown Tampa, walkways along the water, and quick access to Bayshore Boulevard. Home to Ballast Point Park, on any given day you will find children playing on the multiple playgrouns, residents fishing, and couples relaxing under the pavilion. Ballast Point Park was once named for author Jules Verne, and today a mural can be found honoring him. In 1865, Verne even made the community the setting for the launch of a manned rocket in From Earth to the Moon.
Ballast Point is named for an American Civil War Battle, the Battle of Ballast Point, where Union troops marched 14 miles to the Hillsborough River near the site of today’s Lowry Park Zoo.
Residents of Ballast Point can enjoy the perks of the Tampa Yacht and Country Club, where membership gives way to luxuries such as Olympic-sized swimming pool, fine dining with selections from one of the best menus in Tampa, equestrian facilities, and more.
