Women Rock The Family Portrait In Hyde Park

Bayshore Boulevard.

The Bayshore Boulevard is a favorite of locals, especially joggers, skaters, and bikers, for its scenic views of the bay and 3.8 miles of the world’s longest continuous sidewalk,which starts on the north at Columbus Statue Park and ends at Gandy Boulevard.

Bayshore Boulevard also is the site of Tampa’s annual Gasparilla parade. In 2008 Bayshore was the primary backdrop for a Lexus commercial.

Bayshore extends from Brorein Street in downtown all the way down Tampa’s Interbay peninsula. However, the southern most portions are only accessible by military personnel as it is on MacDill Air Force Base.

The boulevard is four lanes from its intersection at Platt Street all the way to Gandy Boulevard. From there, the boulevard is two lanes all the way to MacDill AFB. Bayshore has only six traffic signals along its route: at Platt Street, Howard Avenue, Bay-to-Bay Boulevard, Gandy Boulevard, and both intersections with Interbay Boulevard. Motorists headed northbound on Bayshore at Bay-to-Bay Boulevard have a constant green arrow and thus do not have to ever stop at the intersection.
