Good morning from McPherson Park where volunteers from @SPARJax are doing a great job helping keep it clean and litter-free. They just adopted the park through the @jaxparks Adopt-A-Park program.

Excellent turn out tonight. One sentence summary: traffic improvements coming to 1st and Walnut Street, 10th Street and Hubbard St., and Hubbard St. and Ionia St. due to neighborhood support; petitions to be mailed to homeowners shortly.

Springfield neighbors walked the proposed path of #EmeraldTrailJax Segment 8, sharing ideas for what this trail should become.

Thanks to @JTAFLA, @cityofjax & @volkertinc for supporting these events. 🔗 Learn more: https://t.co/NzycY6wNdH

Unfortunately, we recently lost a beautiful local landmark in our Historic District due to an emergency demolition for faulty structural integrity. Severe problems such as this don't happen overnight, often taking many years to develop. We hope to find a solution with @CityofJax.

You don’t need the latest IPhone.

You just need a porch swing.

For those of us who love historic buildings and might be working on a rehabilitation, it’s important to document what you see before the structure begins to change. Once you alter physical aspects of a structure, you can never return it to what it was.
