April 17th, 2009 categories: Channelside, Downtown Tampa, Towers of Channelside
Towers of Channelside – With 28 condos sold in the last year you would
think the Towers would be in great shape. Thats not the case however as the developer for the 29 story luxury condo community has notified the lender it’s giving up on the project six months after emerging from chapter 11 reorganization.
“Unfortunately it’s the economy. It’s bigger than us. It’s bigger than any one person,” said Richard Sacchi, a principal of Towers of Channelside LLC.
We’ve been fighting a very tough battle, said John Montesano, a resident and the Broker for Homeward Real Estate, the on-site Broker at the Towers of Channelside. 
Even in a down market, all the uncertainties of reorganization and mortgages next to impossible to obtain the interest level in the Towers, by people wanting to live downtown or maintain a second home here has remained very high.
Prices definetly do not reflect the value a buyer is getting at the Towers of Channelside. when buyers realize the banks are not going to let the property fall into a state of disrepair and prices aren’t going any lower, the serious buyers that have been holding out will come back to the table and will be getting a great deal on resort style living, in this magnificent community.
For More information regarding the Towers of Channelside, please call the Towers of Channelside sales office Mon-Sat 10AM-5PM and Sun 1PM-PM at 813–574–7252 or visit the sales center in Tower 1 located on the 5th floor @ 1211 E Cumberland Ave, Tampa FL 33602.

Located in the heart of Apollo Beach, Newland Communities forges ahead with plans for their latest developement, Waterset. Newland’s plan is to be ready for the construction of new homes when the market turns around. Known for developing saught after communities throughout Hillsborough county such as Covington Park, Fishhawk Ranch and Mirabay, as well as others throughout the U.S. Newland looks to kick start the local real estate market by moving forward with plans to develope 6,400 homesites in a 2,350–acre master planned community.
Newland claims to be taking a longer view then some of the smaller developers who have scrapped projects. Realizing that a community of this size could take as long as 15 years to build out, Newland is in it for the long haul. Siting that Waterset isn’t the first community to start up in a downturn, and while planning started in 2004, it has changed with the market and will offer a diverse price point wih homes starting in the $140,000 and top out at $500,000 according to it’s regional marketing director. Waterset’s positive location and easy access to the interstate system, Tampa, Orlando, MacDill AirForce Base and the inviting Gulf beaches.
Still very much in the planning stages little is known about the details, but they do say there will be several lakes, retail, office space, restaurants and entertainment within the community. Along with parks, playgrounds, walking trails and a community center.
Other projects, such as an open air mall on Big Bend Road are still in the works, as well. Making the Southshore area of Hillsborough County a place where people moving to the area will definately want to explore.

3 things you need to know about The Towers of Channelside Condos
August 19th, 2008 categories: Bayshore, Bellamy, Channelside, Downtown Tampa, Element, Featured Listings, Grand Central on Kennedy, Parkside at One Bayshore, South Tampa, Tampa Condos, Tampa Real Estate, The Place, The Plaza, Towers of Channelside, Ventana, Victory Lofts, Westshore Yacht Club
Lots of misinformation regarding the Towers of Channelside and Downtown Condos has condo buyers confused.
TOWERS OF CHANNELSIDE CURRENT MLS LISTINGS
As the on-site Broker we answer a lot of questions from people, including Realtors and prospective buyers with all sorts of misinformation about Downtown Tampa condos, Harbour island condos and Channelside condos. I would like to clear up a least a few of the ones we hear most about The Towers of Channelside.
1. The Banks, including Wachovia, do not own or run The Towers of Channelside.
On February 1, 2008 the Developer, Towers of Channelside LLC, Filed Chapter 11. This came in response to the banks withholding a draw due to the developer to be used for everything from marketing to paying the HOA fee for unsold units. As a result the lenders on the project released the funds and all parties are working toward an agreement or “plan” which will keep the Towers of Channelside solvent and able to pay their portion of HOA fees for at least the next 5 years.
2. The Towers of Channelside has hosted 4 parties for groups outside of residents of The Towers.
Two of these parties were fundraisers for local charities and were very good events. The Ryan Nece Foundation spent a lot of money to decorate and transform the 35000 sq ft pool deck into an event many of the guests including Tampa Bay Buccaneer players, dignitaries and local news reporters will remember for a long time to come. The second, Havana nights was held to raise money for the intellectually challenged through a foundation called Business Buddies. The other 2 events were Pool parties. The first was not very well planned, the second a birthday party for Buccaneer player Alex Smith. Both parties drew over 300 people. The Homeowners association has agreed not to host such parties, in the future.
3. The pool is not drained, green or leaking water. The lights are all on in the building. People are living in both towers.
These might be my favorites of all the ones we here. There also the easiest to overcome. The sales office is open 7 days a week and we encourage Realtors and potential buyers to come and view the property all the time, anytime. All work is complete and and the property is being well maintained. Residents and friends use the pool and clubhouse daily.
