About location

The landscape around Gandy is low-lying and shaped by the waters of Old Tampa Bay, which has shaped both the built environment and local life. This Tampa-area community occupies the bay’s eastern shore, where Gandy Boulevard carries U.S. Route 92 and State Road 600 toward St. Petersburg. The Gandy Bridge is a major cross-bay link, bringing a broad highway corridor to a shoreline of mangroves, small inlets and open water. Its original span opened in 1924, creating the first direct road connection between Tampa and St. Petersburg. Today the route forms part of the wider Tampa Bay urban area, linking waterfront neighbourhoods and commercial districts with the Pinellas Peninsula.

Florida
Region Florida

Florida occupies a low-lying peninsula in the southeastern United States, bordered by the Atlantic Ocean to the east and the Gulf of Mexico to the west. Lake Okeechobee lies near its centre, and water from this basin historically flowed south through the Everglades, a vast subtropical wetland protected in part by Everglades National Park. The Florida Keys extend southwest from the mainland, while long sandy coasts and inland freshwater systems shape everyday life across the state. St. Augustine, founded by Spain in 1565, is widely recognised as the oldest continuously inhabited European-established settlement in the United States.

Country United States

The Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts define much of the United States — their ports, fisheries and trade routes have long tied the country’s economy to the wider world. Between them, the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains and Mississippi River basin form sharply different regions, from high western ranges to broad agricultural heartlands. Cities carry much of the national story: New York’s Statue of Liberty, a gift from France dedicated in 1886, remains an enduring symbol, while Washington, DC concentrates major federal institutions. Indigenous nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain essential to the country’s identity.
