The Mark Tampa Breaks Ground: A New Era of Luxury Student Living Near USF
A sleek new student living experience is officially on the rise near the University of South Florida. Landmark Properties has broken ground on The Mark Tampa, a six‑story luxury student housing community packed with amenities and more than 800 beds.
Located on University Square Drive, The Mark Tampa will feature 215 residential units ranging from modern studios to spacious five‑bedroom layouts. With more than 270,500 square feet of residential space and a bold list of next‑generation amenities, the development aims to redefine student housing in North Tampa.
What’s Coming to The Mark Tampa
Landmark Properties is equipping this community with amenities typically seen in high‑end urban residential towers, including:
• Rooftop pool deck
• Fitness center
• Jumbotron
• Sports simulator
• Sauna and cold plunge
• Computer lab
• On‑site parking and ground‑floor retail
The project is expected to open before the 2027–2028 school year.
During the groundbreaking event, Landmark also made a $10,000 donation to The Lions World Vision Institute, a Tampa nonprofit focused on restoring sight worldwide. A small gesture with a truly powerful impact.
Why This Development Matters
The USF area continues to attract major developers and investors, driven by growing student demand for modern housing options with walkability, amenities, and dedicated study spaces. A project of this scale signals strong confidence in the future of North Tampa’s growth—even in a high‑cost construction era.
For real estate professionals, this development reinforces that Tampa’s student housing and mixed‑use markets remain active, competitive, and full of long‑term opportunity.
