Activating The River: What’s Next For The Landing, Northbank and Southbank

November 22, 2019

Jacksonville’s Downtown waterfront will look very different in 2020 with a host of projects underway that will significantly change the view.

At the top of the list is The Jacksonville Landing, where demolition is scheduled to be completed by May 28, 2020, at the latest.

Whether the Landing property will be reopened to the public following the demolition is still an open question, according to Downtown Investment Authority CEO Lori Boyer.

“I would hope that it would be available, but, understand, we are trying to be in a position where this could be put out for bid as early as March,” Boyer said.

So while the short-term plan does call for grass to be planted, the posibility of public events at the location will depend on how quickly the bid process goes.
