I was just noticing something in the Riverside area. I just wish that Haskell built a taller structure than one that sprawls. Jacksonville really could have used that extra land for development.

East Springfield.......Great pic Spartan

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

YOU DON'T GET MANY BACK-END OR "BEHIND" PICS OF JACKSONVILLE'S SKYLINE FROM THE NORTH OR FROM SPRINGFIELD. THESE ARE REALLY BEAUTIFUL PICS, ESPECIALLY WITH THE TREES AND ALL IN THERE AND HISTORIC SPRINGFIELD. GREAT PICS.

Urban, You beat me to it!

I graduated from Nease before Bartram Trail was built, so I went to H.S. with some of you Fruit Cove-ians. Some strange people..... (j/k).

[Fruit Cove]

[scongro]

[Fruit Cove]

Heres some pics of Jax beach I took earlier tonight when I went to joe's. Bad weather but still nice to see everything.

[Fruit Cove]

[Captain Obvious]

Thanks for the pictures. I've always enjoyed the skyline view from the dames point bridge.

If the shipyards and various southbank developments ever happen, they sure will add a lot of "meat" to this particular viewing angle.

That's a pretty nice shot, seeing the Northbank & Southbank skylines merged with the Tallyrand port terminal.

[Fruit Cove]

Cowford back in the day, this was a picture in a judge's quarters at the County Courthouse.

[Fruit Cove]

Jacksonville, one of my favorite cities. Always happy to see pics of it.

Great photos.

[asonj23]

Great shots guys.

Southtrust does look a little bland without its badging. I think the building could use a minor facelift, maybe a new coat of paint. What do you think dark blue would look like??

That might be a great way to spark new life into it. Something old, something new, something blue....ok, it's a completely different subject but it fits.

[Urban_Legend]

Great pics! I miss Jacksonville.

Lakelander:

On September 1 last year, you posted some nifty photos of the shipyards in the 1970s. Can you tell me where I could get copies of those??

[bobliocatt]

They came from the Florida Photographic Collection archive website:
