Westshore
A working district with shopping, bay views, and several ways to get around.
Westshore is often introduced through offices and airport access. A fuller visit also includes Cypress Point Park, a waterfront restaurant, and the shopping stops that make a weekday work. Explore those connections with Chris Johnson & EmpowerHome Team.

A closer look · Westshore
Picture an ordinary day here.
The Westshore district’s business identity is only part of its geography. Kennedy Boulevard, the airport-side roads, and the bayfront lead to different experiences, so a useful home search starts by drawing the boundaries clearly. Westshore is also distinct from South Westshore on the southern peninsula. For an introductory outing, combine a practical shopping stop with time at Cypress Point Park. Then test the route to your actual workplace. A location that looks central on a regional map can still have a very particular daily driving pattern.

A local table to try
Oystercatchers
Google Maps snapshot checked September 26, 2026. Ratings and review counts change; this is a researched dining option, not a personal endorsement from Chris.
2900 Bayport Drive
Oystercatchers is the waterfront restaurant at Grand Hyatt Tampa Bay, with a seafood-focused menu and views over Old Tampa Bay. This is a hotel restaurant rather than a standalone neighborhood café; review its menu and reservations to see whether it fits your outing.
Beyond the home tour
Make a day of exploring.
Cypress Point Park
A public bayfront destination that provides a useful counterpoint to the district’s commercial streets. Use the city’s park page to check current facilities before visiting.
Plan your visit ↗International Plaza & Bay Street
At 2223 N Westshore Boulevard, the shopping center provides a larger retail and dining outing. Browse the current directory rather than relying on an old list of tenants.
Plan your visit ↗A first visit to Westshore
Compare the bayfront park with the Kennedy and Dale Mabry shopping corridors, then drive from the home to your regular destination. Keep Westshore and South Westshore separate in your search so the map, commute, and pricing stay aligned.

Townhomes
Not reported
The source did not display a median sale price for this property type and period. This does not mean no homes exist or that none sold.
These are median closed-sale prices: the midpoint of recorded sale prices, not arithmetic averages or current asking prices. A neighborhood or ZIP-code benchmark is not a valuation of an individual home. Lot, condition, size, association costs, taxes, and insurance affect the full ownership picture.
