Collins Philip 2nd Add is a small platted subdivision in the North Hyde Park and West Tampa area of Tampa, west of downtown and the Hillsborough River, in ZIP code 33607 (Hillsborough County records and neighborhood profiles, 2026). It sits within the larger area that connects West Tampa to the north with Hyde Park to the south.
The North Hyde Park and West Tampa area took shape in the early 20th century close to downtown Tampa, with historic cracker-style homes and Florida bungalows from the early 1900s alongside later post-war ranches and modern infill (City of Tampa neighborhood profile and Homes.com guides, 2026). Today the housing stock spans original historic homes, teardown rebuilds, townhomes, and condos.
The subdivision name covers very different homes, so the money is made or lost on the parcel, the condition, and an honest read of an older home roof, systems, and flood exposure, not the headline price.
The pitch is location: a close-in Tampa address west of downtown, near the University of Tampa, the SoHo and Hyde Park districts to the south, and the active West River redevelopment corridor. The work is sorting historic stock from rebuilds and townhomes, and verifying the flood zone, insurance, and any HOA before you commit.
