Yes, because all the big money resides in downtown Jacksonville.

House poor people live in Nocatee. Rich people live in Ponte Vedra (where you can smell water). Nocatee has this perception of being a great place, but in reality its a bunch of overpriced poorly built homes with 60 foot zero lot lines.

Didn't Kahn and the city just spend 100 million dollars to upgrade it?  What about Daily's Place and the indoor training facility? Do those things just go away?  And what about Lot J?

My guess is that because Kahn is so interested in downtown development, he'd want to keep the stadium downtown.

If it stays downtown then it stays the same. Downtown is gone and it's not coming back, the City Council will see to that.

I don't believe that. Right now, there's a lot of older buildings downtown that are being converted to apartments/condos. The Laura Street Trio is a great example of this. There's also a lot of new development going on in Brooklyln.  To have a thriving downtown, with cafes, restaurants and other attractions, you need to need to get more people to live there. Despite the mercurial growth in DT, that is happenning.
