Areas in Hyde Park
There are subareas within Hyde Park. These include: Hyde Park Village, an upscale shopping district located near the intersection of Swann and Rome Avenues encompassing several city blocks; SoHo, a small sub-district that runs along South Howard Avenue; and Bayshore, an area abutting Bayshore Boulevard.
Where South Edison Avenue now sits, there used to be a spring. This spring, once referred to as the "Scourge of South Tampa," claimed the lives of a few neighborhood children. It was subsequently covered over as a project with the WPA after the 1929 stock market crash. However, the spring still haunts the residents of South Edison Avenue, in the form of a permanently-soggy grass strip running between the sidewalk and street.
The commercial "downtown" of Hyde Park is Hyde Park Village, a shopping mall located at Inman and Swann Avenues which encompasses three city blocks. Unlike the covered shopping malls common in the US, the shopping center in Hyde Park is open and airy, with greenery and fountains everywhere and unique shopping discoveries around every corner. The shopping center was formerly home to Sunrise Cinemas, which featured many independent and art-house movies, but the cinema was closed in 2006 to make room for condominiums as a part of the area's redevelopment plan.
