Discover Lutz
Lutz, about 15 miles north of Tampa in Hillsborough and Pasco counties, began with a small depot on the Tampa Northern Railroad. When the Postal Service authorized a post office, the area took the name Lutz, for W. P. Lutz, credited with bringing the railroad to town.
More about Lutz
As people moved out from Tampa, the community grew until it no longer depended on the depot, Lutz Junction, which was torn down in the late 1960s. In 2000 a replica of the depot was built near its original site, at Lutz-Lake Fern Road and U.S. 41, with a public library behind it. The old post office building still stands and is now an art gallery. The area is known as "Beautiful Downtown Lutz," the subject of a song written in 1981. Sources Wikipedia: Lutz, Florida
