If you've driven down Union Street lately you may have seen the "coning soon" Publix banner on the side of this old delapidated building! What you might NOT have known is that the NEW structure is proposed to be a 14-story tower with Publix at the ground floor and 13 stories of apartments above!!!
Imagine now convenient that will be for residents... seniors, young people workimg downtown, etc!
The continued work these deveopers are doing and the incredible "evolution" it is bringing to Downtown AND the surrounding communities is truly amazing!!
If you haven't driven through these neighborhoods lately you are really missing out!!
Gateway Jax plans to replace a former First Baptist Church auditorium with a multi-use tower including a Publix.
