Seminole Heights in Tampa Heights are some of the original suburbs of the Tampa area. Many of these neighborhoods were built to fuel the cigar industry of the early 1900s. Street cars went throughout these neighborhoods to help people get to and from work each day.
This area is very central to the city of Tampa. It is just north of downtown and just South and east of the Hillsborough river. Getting to attractions and the airport is very easy from here. Even getting to the beaches is a pretty straight shot. If you live in this area you can often walk to very good restaurants, coffee shops, bakeries, etc.
