Wingspan Development Group and ABC Capital today announced they have welcomed first move-ins at The Whitt, a 211-unit apartment community at 6908 Simmons Loop in the Marana neighborhood of Riverview, Fla., just east of I-75 and less than 15 miles from downtown Tampa. Offering floor plans with up to three bedrooms, a resort-style pool with clubhouse and other family-friendly amenities, The Whitt combines suburban living with quick highway access to downtown Tampa’s restaurants, nightlife and wide range of outdoor recreation options.

Situated less than 2 miles away from Doby Elementary School, Eisenhower Middle School and Jule F. Sumner High School, and directly adjacent to St. Joseph’s Hospital – South, The Whitt also offers convenient access to schools and a major employer in Riverview. According to the development team, The Whitt is helping to meet a growing demand for housing in Riverview, which grew by 15%, from 95,849 to 110,321 people, from 2020 to 2025.

“As Florida’s population continues to grow, we see tremendous opportunity for high-quality residential new construction,” said Jason Macklin, vice present of development for Wingspan. “Just minutes from top schools, a retail center and a major hospital, The Whitt is an ideal home for families, healthcare professionals and others who want the affordability of Riverview with proximity to Tampa. Offering a variety of floor plans and top-of-the-market amenities, this building has something for everyone.”

The Whitt offers one-, two- and three-bedroom residences ranging from 650 to 1,349 square feet. Units feature modern plank floors, walk-in closets, in-unit washer/dryer, keyless entry and high-speed internet. Each residence includes a kitchen equipped with stainless steel appliances, soft-close cabinetry, quartz countertops and ceramic-tile backsplashes. Most units have a balcony or terrace.

Amenities at The Whitt include a 24-hour fitness center and yoga studio; resort-style pool with spacious deck; oversized community clubhouse with game room including pool table and lounge seating; golf simulator; pet spa and 1.2-acre dog park; horseshoe and cornhole courts; coworking space; and package concierge system. Indoor garage parking and storage units are available for rent.

Residents can enjoy local establishments such as Donovan’s Meatery and Tiki Docks River Bar & Grill, which offers waterfront dining, and nearby recreational options like Bell Creek Nature Preserve and Alafia River State Park, which offers hiking, biking and kayaking.

Wingspan’s sister company, Nicholas & Associates, served as the construction manager for The Whitt, its first ground-up project in Tampa. Nicholas had taken over construction of two earlier developments by Wingspan and ABC Capital in the Tampa market, NICHE and Jade at North Hyde Park.
