- History_of_Ybor_City abstract "Ybor City (/ˈiːbɔr/ EE-bor) is a historic neighborhood that includes the Ybor City Historic District in Tampa, Florida. It is located just northeast of downtown Tampa and north of the Port of Tampa. The neighborhood has distinct architectural, culinary, cultural, and historical legacy that reflects its multi-ethnic composition. It was unique in the American South as a prosperous manufacturing community built and populated almost entirely by immigrants.Ybor City was founded as an independent town in 1885 by a group of cigar manufacturers led by Vicente Martinez-Ybor and was annexed by Tampa in 1887. The original population was mostly composed of Cuban and Spanish immigrants who worked in the cigar factories. Italian and Eastern-European Jewish immigrants following shortly thereafter, predominantly founding retail shops, farms and grocery stores, and other businesses which catered to the cigar industry and its workers. Beginning in the mid-1890s, neighborhood residents founded mutual aid societies, labor organizations, newspapers in several languages, and many social and civic organizations, helping to create a vibrant civil society that blended the residents' different cultures of origin into a new "Latin" culture unique to Tampa.Ybor City grew and prospered from the 1890s until the Great Depression. In the early 1930s, a sharp reduction in the worldwide demand for fine cigars caused some cigar factories to close, others to mechanize to reduce labor costs, and virtually all remaining operations to decrease production, depriving the neighborhood of many good-paying jobs. As veterans returned from World War II, they largely chose to leave the aging neighborhood, continuing a long-term trend of declining population and economic development. This process accelerated through the 1950s and 60s, when the federal Urban Renewal program and the construction of Interstate 4 resulted in the demolition of many structures, including many housing units. Planned redevelopment never took place, and, with its commercial and social core virtually abandoned, Ybor City lapsed into a long period of neglect and decay.Beginning in the early-1980s, portions of the area near the old business district around 7th Avenue (La Septima) began a slow recovery, first as a bohemian haven for artists and, by the early 1990s, as a popular nightlife and entertainment district. Since 2000, several buildings along and nearby 7th Avenue have been renovated or restored and several new structures have been built on long-vacant lots, including new hotels and several multi-family residential housing units, leading to the area's first population increase inover half a century.Much of Ybor City's old business district has been revitalized but not all of the original neighborhood has shared in the recovery. Poverty and blight are ongoing problems in large sections of Greater Ybor City, especially north of I-4 and east of 22nd Avenue.".
