And if you need an architect, I run a firm here in Tampa. 

Other than the ability to have an in-person meeting with the syndication attorney, there is no other benefit to choosing a local syndication attorney (although many of the prominent ones are located in CA, so you'll have a good selection to choose from).3. 

A week ago they finally hired a new architect to render drawings but I still don't know if they're done. 

One of the things I have found to be very prominent in that area of the city is the marked change in feel from one street to the next.
