[edit]University is bounded by Interstate 275 to the west, Tampa city limits to the south and east, including the University of South Florida, and Sinclair Hills Road to the north. Its historical boundaries stretch as far east as Morris Bridge Road; however, the boundaries were scaled back owing to annexations by Tampa and Temple Terrace during the 1980s.
Economy
[edit]University Mall, a shopping center located at the southern end of the community, was the main source of economic development within the community during the 1970s and '80s. The businesses that were concentrated in the mall have been replaced by many stand-alone shops along Fowler and Fletcher Avenues, such as Wal-Mart, Target and dozens of fast food establishments. There is a county bus transportation center operated by HARTline and a county health department located in the area. Fletcher East has become a hub of medical and dental groups adjacent to Florida Hospital Tampa.
