The team needs the Lot J project to help them compete revenue wise with the rest of the league and to ensure we can continue to attract and keep major events like the FL/GA game.

Downtown Jacksonville is just depressing. The Landing was a dump bordering on unsafe the last while. What remains of Downtown is no better. Going to a restaurant or bar and grabbing a few beers and food before a game or a concert or just to enjoy a night downtown appeals to me. If they get the right mix of tenants i.e. a grocery store, coffee, gym in addition to the bars and restaurants I think it'll appeal to many also wanting to live in the apartments and definitely add much needed density to the area. One of the big problems I feel the Jags have always had in building a fanbase outside of Jacksonville is that for those visiting for a game from out of town there is absolutely nowhere near enough for people to do in the area and it creates a terrible impression of the city for visitors.

The Southside and the Beaches are nice but our Downtown is capable of so much more. Hopefully they get things done and stop the bureaucratic squabbling.
