The Sponge Docks district consists of approximately 48 acres located along the south side of the Anclote River, from Pinellas Avenue westward in Tarpon Springs, Florida . The area is primarily a diverse, yet dependent mix of tourist-oriented retail uses and commercial-industrial waterfront uses. The latter ‘working waterfront’ uses, more heavily focused toward the west end of the study area, drive the tourist market of the Sponge Docks. The City’s rich historic Greek culture and traditions centered on sponging, shrimping and fishing bring visitors both local and international. Current zoning permits processing plants . Dodecanese Boulevard is the primary transportation artery through the Sponge Docks. Most of the tourist-oriented gift shops, retailers, restaurants and off-street surface parking lots are located along Dodecanese Boulevard. The three main offshoots from Dodecanese Boulevard, Athens Street, Arfaras Boulevard and Hope Street are more neighborhood-oriented with local bakeries and markets leading into the Greek neighborhood known to many as the Hope-Athens Greek Community.
