Tampa Outdoor Artwork

This page will be dedicated to displaying the various outdoor murals, paintings and sculptures in Tampa


 

 

 

This colorful painting faces downtown commuters as they leave downtown heading northbound on Florida Avenue at the corner of Royal Street.

 

Read about this mural and the artist, Carl Cowden

 

In the letters that spell "Tampa" you can see the Sulfur Springs water tower, the Gasparilla ship and accompanying flotilla, the old Tampa Bay Hotel now the University of Tampa, a streetcar in Ybor City, and a nature scene on the Hillsborough River.

 

The skyline in the background shows downtown Tampa across the Hillsborough River as it appeared in the old days.  The bridge could be the old Lafayette Street bridge which is now Kennedy Blvd.

Whether art or advertising, or a little of both, this inflated superman catches everyone's attention as they drive down Florida Avenue around Fowler Avenue.  His pitch:  A super deal at this used car lot.
