Burgert Brothers: Another Look
Rephotographing Historic Tampa
Chip Weiner

In the early 1900s, as the cigar industry flourished in Ybor City and Tampa continued to modernize, Burgert Brothers, Inc. chronicled the people, places and events that brought the area to life. Take a visual journey back through the past 100 years and see what early Tampa looked like then, and how those same scenes look today. Writer and photographer Chip Weiner visits the historic and iconic places captured by the Burgert Brothers with over 150 images that show what has changed... and as importantly, what hasn’t.
