WestShore Plaza is an enclosed shopping mall located in the Westshore business district of Tampa, Florida, developed by Albert L. Manley of Boston, MA. WestShore Plaza was opened in 1967 and was touted as Tampa's first shopping center that was fully air-conditioned. WestShore houses many specialty shops including Charming Charlie, Banana Republic, LOFT, New Balance, and more. WestShore Plaza's anchors include Sears, JCPenney, Macy's, Old Navy, and Saks Fifth Avenue. There is also an AMC movie franchise (14-screen theatre), Tampa's only P.F. Chang's China Bistro, Maggiano's Little Italy, Seasons 52, high-end steakhouse chain The Palm and gourmet seafood eatery Mitchell's Fish Market Restaurant and Bar are also located at Westshore.
The mall has since seen numerous expansions. The tenant space at WestShore is owned and managed by Glimcher Realty Trust.
In the fall of 2012, H&M will open its second Tampa location at WestShore Plaza, in a space near JC Penney .

From the west unto the east
Any day now, any day now,
