Cigars were once Tampa's mainstay, and brick and frame buildings housing such companies as the Hav-a-Tampa Cigar Factory and the Cuesta-Rey Cigar Factory provided employment for Spanish and Cuban immigrants who labored at long tables hand-rolling tobacco leaves. Cigars are still produced, but the area business community has greatly diversified.
