Florida - Tampa, Ybor City, Trolly

Ybor City, Tampa, Florida

Ybor City was named for Spanich cigar factory owner Vincente Martinez Ybor.  The city was built to house his factories and their workers, when they moved in 1886 from Key West.  Other manufacturers of hand-rolled cigars soon followed suit and made their way to Ybor City.
