These individuals eventually became known as Lectors and evolved into highly respected influential leaders who imparted new ideas. Today, Lector 85 exists to celebrate Ybor's roots while providing a space for a new generation of cultural leaders to emerge.

Lector 85 outside of the great location has personality. I've never ran into a neighbor that wasn't nice, easy going, and just an everyday person. I've never ran into nothing loud, no loud noise, no disturbances, lector 85 throws occasional events that are well put together, thougtful, fun with great interaction amongst tenants. I love the lobby, different themes, setups, for different moods which is very creative fun and vibrant! I love the security the entrance digital codes upon entry, and... gate parking garage makes me feel safe and attended to. Been here 3 going on 4 years great location say, nice scenic views, nice view of downtown with not having to be in the midst of downtown traffic is a plus. I love it here!

This property is absolutely beautiful, with fantastic retail options on the ground level, ample parking, and top-tier amenities. Its location near Water Street, Channelside, and Ybor makes it perfect for anyone wanting to live in a vibrant, up-and-coming area.

The team here is phenomenal—truly the most important part of creating a great living experience. The community is clean, well maintained, and my apartment was immaculate upon move-in. I couldn’t be happier!
