The Garrison Channel is one of several channels for boat traffic in and around the Port of Tampa in Tampa, Florida. Anchored by Channelside on the East leading to Ybor Channel and Sparkman Channel, and by the Tampa Convention Center on the west leading to Hillsborough River. Garrison Channel is home to the Waterside Marriott and St. Pete Times Forum on the north bank and Harbour Island on the south bank. The new 60,000-square-foot (5,600 m2) Tampa Bay History Museum will break ground on the banks of the channel this year.

“Our country is the world—our countrymen are all mankind.”
—William Lloyd Garrison (1805–1879)
“There may sometimes be ungenerous attempts to keep a young man down; and they will succeed too, if he allows his mind to be diverted from its true channel to brood over the attempted injury. Cast about, and see if this feeling has not injured every person you have ever known to fall into it.”
—Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
