While the mini populatiob boom isn’t expected to be the tippinb point in creating demanefor retail, restaurants and services in the Central Businesds District, it’s a move in the right “Every little bit counts,” said David Conn, EVP of the retail servicesw division at CB Richard Ellis. “The best thing we can do for all of downtowmn is topopulate it,” said Greg Minder, partner in Novare-- , which is developing Element, 808 N. Franklij St. Fly Restaurant and Bar on Northh Franklin opened in July five months before construction started onthe 35-story Element, two blockes to the south.

But theree is growth. About 90 percent of the 380 unitxsat , cattycorner to Element, and also developede by Novare-Intown, have been Minder said. Tampa criminal defense lawyer John Fitzgibbons has worked fromhis seventh-floor office in the Tampa Theatrre building for about two decades.
For most of that there wasn’t much to be seen on the streetr below, except when moviegoers came or went. “It’sx the start of a desert from ourblockm north,” said Fitzgibbons, a co-owner of the theater/officee building. This year, for the first the attorney saw a Franklin Street sight that gave him Peoplewalking dogs. “It’s slow, but therew are increasing signsof life,” said Fitzgibbons, best knownh for his defense of Debraw LaFave, the former school teachere who made national headlines for her affaire with a young male student. His office, catty-corner to has provided a close view of thenew development.

No.
