Owners of the 1926 Mirasol at 84 Davis Boulevard filed to demolish the 56,507-square-foot building after Tampa City Council rejected a hotel conversion.

The Mirasol hotel conversion at 84 Davis Boulevard on Davis Islands is cancelled, and owners have filed to demolish the 1926 Mediterranean Revival building. The 56,507-square-foot property holds 58 apartments on a 1.6-acre waterfront site near the island entrance.

Owners Frank and Lindsey Carriera bought the property in 2021 with a small investor group. Their plan called for roughly 116 to 118 hotel rooms and up to 12 condominiums, with a restaurant, coffee bar, restored rooftop sky garden, and flood-elevated parking. The owners said they cut the project 37% after neighborhood feedback.

The Planning Commission recommended denial, and Tampa City Council voted 5-2 against the comprehensive plan amendment on January 15. Council Chair Alan Clendenin and member Luis Viera dissented.

The demolition application, reported September 29, names no replacement project or timeline. The owners cited damage from Hurricanes Helene and Milton, plus economics, saying the building is no longer viable as apartments.
