I came across a interesting article that mentions the history of Downtown Jax from the beginning when the shipyards and businesses were busy to now where there are still empty buildings from businesses leaving going back to the 1970's.

I wasnt born in Jax and neither my family, but ive lived here long enough to remember the days of Woolworth being downtown, I think on Laura, or Bay St. (cant remember) and they days Regency was busy.

Anyway, the article goes in depth to discuss why businesses cant thrive downtown and have chosen the areas of the Town Center, Oakleaf, River City, and Beaches when it comes to new development and redevelopment.
