Union Terminal Warehouse Jax FRAMED PRINT - NP
Union Terminal Warehouse Jax FRAMED PRINT by Lisa Lofton
When completed in 1913, owner C.B. Gay declared it to be “the largest and finest warehouse in the state of Florida.” Built by Turner Construction (NYC) of cast-in-place reinforced concrete, the 330,000 square foot building is now home to a number of makers in East Jacksonville. The property is sandwiched between Downtown and the Stadium District, which includes TIAA Bank Field, the Baseball Grounds, Jacksonville Veterans Memorial Arena, Daily’s Place, and the Jacksonville Fairgrounds.
The redeveloped Union Terminal Warehouse will be a foreshadowing of Downtown Jacksonville’s future as a vibrant, mixed use, urban environment. It will be an ode to the industrial transit-oriented roots that sprang up along the North Bank in the wake of the Great Jacksonville Fire of 1901. It will be a unique and authentic node along the Emerald Trail and Hogan’s Creek. It will be a place that locals are proud to name amongst their city’s growing catalog of features.
