Harbour Island Athletic Club, which closed in late February will now be redeveloped into a Country Club concept from Life Time Athletics. The Athletic Club sits on nearly 6.5 acres on Harbour Island and the site is a prime redevelopment opportunity. The current zoning of the site would have allowed for the development of up to 1,475 multifamily units without city council approval. If a project is proposed within a property's existing zoning, it is evaluated by city staff and is not subject to public hearings before city council.
Back in January, architecture firm Goodwyn Mills Cawood provided renderings for Tampa-based Liberty Group on what could potentially be developed on the site without city council approval.
The Lifetime executive team was spotted at the Harbour Island Athletic Club (900 S Harbour Island Blvd, Tampa) when news broke that the current lessee would not be allowed to renew their lease. A one-year buildout is expected with an estimated completion in Summer 2024. A press release on April 7th broke the news. Life Time memberships start at upwards of $200 a month, and amenities included in the country-club inspired environment will include restaurant/bar space, pickleball courts, tennis courts, massage therapy, group fitness studios, new locker rooms, bike/e-bike parking, and more luxury amenities desired by the Tampa Bay community. More announcements are expected on the development, and we will update as more information becomes available.
