Ok everyone, I am trying to re-compile a list of projects in and around Downtown, Southbank, San Marco, etc. I know they are going on, but I've lost touch with what's happening in Jax, and I want to fix that

This is a large task, but can anyone out there help?

I'm looking for the name, location, type (condo, office, etc) and any other pertinent info.

[Spartan]

Awesome. Thanks for your help. I thought there were more projects going on that that!

I really like Brooklyn Park,.... Hey is there another jax forum somewhere that is more active? Cause i like to keep up with jax, yet there are only a few posters here.

[Spartan]

Other forums are not relevant here. We do appreciate any comments you have here on UP though.

Thanks for the updates jaxboro!

Real estate, both residential and commercial, is dead in the water. Anything that hasn't already broken ground just ain't gonna happen. Not for several years, anyway.

Thats definitely one of the most streeful sales/proposeal video's I've ever watched. Its a shame that none of the buildings are going to be built. Who is paying to build the pier, and will it include that weird sail monument?

Spartan, I'll see what I can throw together.  There is quite a bit going on so I'll have to add the info bit by bit.
