About This Home
As of August 2025Fantastic 7th Floor rare corner Ruby Floorplan home with massive wrap-around balcony and tons of floor-to-ceiling glass windows
with panoramic views of Channel District, Water Street, and Downtown Tampa Skyline. INCLUDES TWO RESERVED PARKING SPACES AND A LARGE CLIMATE CONTROLLED STORAGE UNIT ALL ON THE SAME FLOOR AS THE HOME. Park your car and walk directly home, no elevator needed. Beautiful 2 bedroom/2 bathroom floorplan. Equipped with gas range, oven and dryer as well as Viking stainless steel appliances. Downstairs retail includes Crunch Fitness & Gym, Dry cleaners, Pourhouse beer bar, Gingerbeard coffee, Massage Envy, and additional retail. One block to the Channel District Publix. Amenities include 9th floor pool, spa, fitness, clubroom, green space, grills, and concierge. At Grand Central condominiums, the HOA fee is comprehensive and includes water, sewer, trash, hot water, cold air, gas, grounds maintenance/landscaping, building/exterior insurance, concierge, 24/7 on-site security, escrowed reserves, pool, spa, and amenities. All that's left is the electricity which is at a minimum because your big users of energy (oven, range, and dryer) are powered by gas, hot water is provided by a boiler room (so no electricity for the water heater), and cold air is provided by a water chiller system on the roof, all you pay for is the interior blower. All of these were part of Green Design philosophy for Grand Central, with Pre-Cast Concrete Panel Exterior supports a Green Design philosophy and is good for the environment. It is easier to maintain over time in comparison to wood or block and stucco construction. It is good for sound absorption, as well as fire resistance, and structures with pre-cast concrete are subject to lower insurance because of strength and the ability to withstand fire and wind. Pre-cast panels are great at energy insulation. Grand Central is the only condominium community in Channelside built with pre-cast concrete. Double Pane, UV Resistant, High Efficiency Windows further prevent noise and enhance temperature control.
