Oh my goodness. This brought back memories of the toll booths on, if I remember correctly, the old Fuller Warren Bridge. My dad lived on the west side of town and on the weekends he had us we went to the beach and I remember going over a bridge with toll booths. I also remember when they were taken down and the City rejoiced. At least the people did.

Okay, I found a page on the Jacksonville Historical Society website with pictures circa 1954. Man, all we wanted to do was get to the beach and 95 going over the bridge was backed up thanks to those darn things.

This is a picture of the booths being taken down in '89.
