Explore how transportation has shaped Tampa and what the future of mobility could mean for the city. Moderated by Garrett Greco, host of the Tampa Bay Developer podcast, “How Tampa Moves” brings together local experts for a conversation about the ways people have traveled through Tampa, from streetcars and highways to buses, bikes, boats and beyond. Panelists will examine how transportation has influenced the city’s growth, connected communities and changed daily life over time. Join us for an engaging discussion about where Tampa has been, how we move today and where we may be headed next.

Florida Conversations is free and open to the public, thanks to the support of the University of South Florida Endowment, USF Libraries and a generous gift from Shelley Blood. This program is presented in person in TECO Hall at the Tampa Bay History Center and virtually through Zoom. A recording will be posted on YouTube after the event.
