Jules Verne was the French author who wrote "From the Earth to the Moon" and for whom this park was named after. While Jules Verne never came to Florida, he did have a vision for "Columbiad," a imaginary manned rocket ship to be fired from a cannon from "Tampa Town" to the moon. 100 years later, a space ship did reach the moon which was launched from NASA's John F. Kennedy Space Center.
Jules Verne Park is now called Ballast Point Park and offers picnic shelters, a space-themed playground, bait shop, boat ramp, public restrooms and a fishing pier with a small restaurant inside the park called Taste of Boston.
Jules Verne Park is easy access to Bayshore Boulevard sidewalk for jogging, walking or rollerblading. Joe Abrahams Fitness and Wellness Center is located at the entrance to the park.

Our agents pay attention to every detail about your significant purchase. The type of contract that you use to make an offer is important. Our agents will advise you on whether an "As-Is" contract is better way to make an offer versus a contract with repair limits. There is a huge difference. For example, an "As-Is" contract allows a buyer to nullify the contract for any reason once inspected. Where a contract calls for repair limits of 1.5% of the sales price to discuss and negotiate inspection related "warranted" repair items. This type of contract is not as easy to escape. The term "warranted" opens the door for possible conversations that may not be in the best interest of a buyer. Your agent can best determine which type of contract best suits your needs.
