The site of the old Colonnade restaurant — 3401 Bayshore Boulevard — is transforming into the latest luxury development in Tampa. Named The Virage, this 24-story collection of waterfront condos is bringing something new to South Tampa’s real estate scene. Site plans call for a secured on site garage, two pools, a covered pavilion with a bar, a sun lounge, a pet park and a spa.
Million dollar units rising on Bayshore
These $1 million+ units provide panoramic views and quick access to scenic Bayshore Boulevard. Condos range from 2,753 sq. ft. to 5,429 sq. ft.. Units feature spacious terraces with bay and sunset views, multiple walk in closets, dressing rooms, an elevator foyer, a den and ample storage space. Floor plans reveal great rooms, multiple suites with private bathrooms and galleries leading to the elevator.
