Have you ever walked past a local landmark and thought, “This place deserves to be remembered!” Our city brims with legendary locations, yet many significant spots aren’t marked. While some are recognized with historical markers—like The University of Tampa or the historic Jackson House—there are countless hidden gems that go unnoticed. Think of places like Wright’s Gourmet House, where generations have celebrated with cakes for birthdays, weddings, or “just because,” or that memorable spot along the Hillsborough River where Tom Brady famously tossed the Lombardi Trophy to Cameron Brate on another boat. We’re here to give these places the recognition they deserve—literally putting them on the map.
