Sale - West Tampa Cigar Factory and Land - 33,334 SF - Tampa, FL 33607 This beautiful historic West Tampa Cigar Factory is a truly unique opportunity and opened as the original site of the Bustillo Bros. and Diaz Cigar Company in 1903. The four story, 33,334 square foot structure is the second oldest cigar factory in West Tampa and sits on a 1.3 acre lot which borders three streets. The basement has direct exterior grade level access, windows and groundwater pumps and is dry and usable. The three main floors are wide open with high ceilings and beautiful exposed red brick. Currently, all floors are accessible by staircase, although there is a freight only elevator which could be upgraded to a personnel lift. Previous owners made considerable investment into the structure with intent to relocate their growing business but their rapid expansion quickly required a much larger structure. From the ground up, safety and stability were paramount and they completed many structural repairs to the base pillars and added considerable structural steel. In addition, all the subfloors were removed, additional lumber and laminated beams were added, and a perfectly level subfloor was replaced, which is a rarity in these older structures. The interior brick was also smoothed and almost the entirety of the property was surrounded by an ornate, custom fabricated fence and gates with interval columns. Currently, a buyer has the opportunity to finish the interior to their own taste and own a rare historical gem, which is a hallmark of Tampa's rich cultural history. Located in Old West Tampa, south of W. Columbus Avenue and north of the Tampa Convention Center. Conveniently located very close to I-275 and I-4.
