With the 25 anniversary of 9/11 this week . Did you know that Tampa is home to a 9/11 memorial situated in Ybor City? The 9/11 Fallen Heroes Memorial in Ybor City pays tribute to the victims, survivors, and first responders of the tragic September 11th attack.

Positioned near the Centennial Park streetcar station, it provides a convenient location for both residents and tourists to pause and reflect

Bruno Mars’ Hello Kitty merch pop-up hits Ybor ahead of Tampa concerts

A Bruno Mars x Hello Kitty merch pop-up is heading to Ybor City from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Friday through Sunday. The cartoony collab, located at 1314 E Seventh Ave., features hats, stickers, tote bags and shirts that cannot be purchased anywhere else.

Our Niece spotted this sign on a recent trip to Finland.

Tampa Bay Pride Band And Tampa Bay Symphonic Winds

Your copy should address 3 key questions: Who am I writing for? (Audience) Why should they care? (Benefit) What do I want them to do here? (Call-to-Action)

Create a great offer by adding words like "free" "personalized" "complimentary" or "customized." A sense of urgency often helps readers take an action, so think about inserting phrases like "for a limited time only" or "only 7 remaining!"

Happy Birthdays

Watching footage of the moment during a livestream, Piker repeatedly exclaimed: “What the f***?” before realizing the Republicans had used the photo in a video playing on the giant screens.
