In 1894 Cubans built Sociedad Cespedes, a three-story social club that loomed above the business district at Main and Albany. The Centro Espanol de West Tampa at Howard Avenue and Cherry Street served arts and cultural needs.
The Sicilian Club is one of Tampa’s original ethnic clubs that aided immigrants in their assimilation into the Tampa area. The rear portion of the building houses a theatre that provided an array of entertainment options to those in the area. The Sicilian Club building is significant to the development of West Tampa and served as a focal point to the West Tampa community. The Sicilian Club is an excellent example of Mediterranean Revival style architecture, as evidenced in its elaborate blond and red brick detailing.
