It is bounded on the west by Florida Avenue, on the north by Hanna Avenue, on the east by Interstate 275 and on the south by Osborne Avenue. It includes many early 20th century bungalow homes and historic buildings. It was an early residential area of Tampa connected by streetcar.

The neighborhood's historic homes, eclectic shops and gourmet restaurants are an increasing draw.
