  • Ybor City es un vecindario histórico en Tampa, Florida, Estados Unidos situado justo al noreste de centro de Tampa. Fue fundado en 1885 por un grupo fabricante de puros dirigido por Vicente Martínez Ybor y fue poblado originalmente por los inmigrantes cubanos, españoles (principalmente de Asturias) e italianos (principalmente de Sicilia), que trabajaron en las muchas fábricas de puros. La comunidad fue extraordinaria en el sur norteamericano por su naturaleza multiétnica y sus organizaciones cívicas, que incluyeron sociedades de ayuda mutua y la presencia de un activo sindicato. Ybor City creció y prosperó hasta la Gran Depresión, cuando una reducción aguda en la demanda mundial de puros finos comenzó un descenso lento. Hacia finales de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, una corriente constante de residentes dejaba el vecindario en envejecimiento. Este proceso se aceleró entre los años 1950 y 60, cuando el programa federal de "Renovación Urbana" ("Urban Renewal") y la construcción de la Interestatal 4 tuvieron como resultado la destrucción de muchos edificios en el área, la mayor parte eran viviendas. Virtualmente abandonado durante varias décadas, Ybor City sufrió un largo descuido y decaimiento. A principio en los años ochenta, el área alrededor de la zona comercial antigua de Ybor City empezó una recuperación lenta; primero como un refugio para artistas, y después como un distrito popular de vida nocturna y entretenimiento en los noventa. Desde el año 2000, se han construido muchas unidades residenciales y la población del área ha aumentado constantemente. (es)

  • Ybor City (/ˈiːbɔːr/ EE-bor) is a historic neighborhood just northeast of downtown Tampa, Florida, United States. It was founded in the 1880s by Vicente Martinez-Ybor and other cigar manufacturers and populated by thousands of immigrants, mainly from Cuba, Spain, and Italy. For the next 50 years, workers in Ybor City's cigar factories rolled hundreds of millions of cigars annually. Ybor City was unique in the American South as a successful town almost entirely populated and owned by immigrants. The neighborhood had features unusual among contemporary communities in the south, most notably its multiethnic and multiracial population and their many mutual aid societies. The cigar industry employed thousands of well-paid workers, helping Tampa grow from an economically depressed village to a bustling city in about 20 years and giving it the nickname "Cigar City". Ybor City grew and flourished from the 1890s until the Great Depression of the 1930s, when a drop in demand for fine cigars reduced the number of cigar factories and mechanization in the cigar industry greatly reduced employment opportunities in the neighborhood. This process accelerated after World War II, and a steady exodus of residents and businesses continued until large areas of the formerly vibrant neighborhood were virtually abandoned by the late 1970s. Attempts at redevelopment failed until the 1980s, when an influx of artists began a slow process of gentrification. In the 1990s and early 2000s, a portion of the original neighborhood around 7th Avenue developed into a nightclub and entertainment district, and many old buildings were renovated for new uses. Since then, the area's economy has diversified with more offices and residences, and the population has shown notable growth for the first time in over half a century. Ybor City has been designated as a National Historic Landmark District, and several structures in the area are listed in the National Register of Historic Places. In 2008, 7th Avenue, Ybor City's main commercial thoroughfare, was recognized as one of the "10 Great Streets in America" by the American Planning Association. In 2010 Columbia Restaurant, which is Florida's oldest restaurant, was named a "Top 50 All-American icon" by Nation's Restaurant News magazine. (en)
  • Ybor City è un quartiere storico di Tampa, Florida, Stati Uniti, situato a nord-est del centro di Tampa. Fu fondato nel 1885 da un gruppo di produttori di sigari guidato da ed era originariamente popolato da immigrati cubani, spagnoli (principalmente delle Asturie) e italiani (principalmente della Sicilia), che lavoravano nelle numerose fabbriche di sigari. La comunità era straordinaria nel sud nordamericano a causa della sua natura multietnica e delle sue organizzazioni civiche, che includevano le società di mutuo soccorso e la presenza di un sindacato attivo. Ybor City crebbe e prosperò fino alla grande depressione, quando una brusca riduzione della domanda globale di sigari fini iniziò un lento declino. Verso la fine della seconda guerra mondiale, un flusso costante di residenti ha lasciato l'invecchiamento del quartiere. Questo processo accelerò tra gli anni 1950 e 1960, quando il programma federale di "Rinnovamento Urbano" ("Urban Renewal") e la costruzione della Interstate 4 provocarono la distruzione di molti edifici nell'area, la maggior parte dei quali erano abitazioni. Praticamente abbandonato per diversi decenni, Ybor City ha subito una lunga negligenza e decadenza. All'inizio degli anni 1980, l'area intorno alla vecchia area commerciale di Ybor City iniziò una lenta ripresa; prima come paradiso per gli artisti, e poi come un quartiere popolare per la vita notturna e l'intrattenimento negli anni 1990. Dal 2000 sono state costruite molte unità residenziali e la popolazione dell'area è aumentata costantemente. (it)
