Complementing the development’s grandeur is a bespoke art collection comprising more than 50 distinct works. Curated with the same level of intention and sophistication found throughout the property, the collection is anchored by a one-of-a-kind lobby installation by Miami-based artist Lauren Shapiro. Created exclusively for The Residences, Water Lilies serves as a striking focal point to welcome residents home. The centerpiece is joined by an exceptional selection by artists from across the U.S. and Latin America, including Robert Indiana, Markus Linnenbrink, whose SLS Brickell “drip” mural drew significant attention, Alex Katz, Rachel Eulena Williams, Pae White and Massimo Vitali. Together, the collection weaves a richly layered narrative rooted in place, culture and contemporary artistic expression.

Pricing for The Residences Tower II ranges from $1.89 million to $7.85 million, with the model residence now open for private tours. Designed by Tampa-based Oxford Design Studio, known for creating layered, welcoming environments through a mix of contemporary art, classic silhouettes and thoughtful detailing, the spacious four-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bath residence offers prospective buyers an immersive introduction to the development. Oxford Design Studio’s approach reflects the rhythm and vibrancy of Tampa, seamlessly blending comfort, elegance and style throughout each home.

Powering Tampa Bay’s Renaissance: Related Group’s Enduring Commitment

The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Tampa marks the latest chapter in Related’s deep investment to Tampa Bay, whose long-term commitment to the region now exceeds $1.5 billion. Spanning ultra-luxury residences, mixed-income communities and affordable and workforce housing, Related’s portfolio reflects a holistic approach to growth that prioritizes design excellence, community impact and economic inclusivity. Signature transformative projects demonstrating this impact include Canopy at West River, which will deliver 384 newly built affordable apartments this winter, and Rome Yards, a 954-unit mixed-use community on track to deliver later this year.
