Intuition moving to Forest Street?

[Cheshire Cat]

What was this building originally? Would they be open for a paranormal Investigation of the location before they open? Our studies have shown people will pay more attention to the location if its haunted. We are a professional team here in Jaxx. Our site is www.jprs-rip.com. And yes we are the team that was on TV.

Oh boy...

Sorry some ppl believe, some ppl don't. But if you had what happen to me happen to you.... you'd believe too.

Well, what happened to you?  I am curious about your experience and whatever other stories about "unusual" happenings are going on in that building.

That building doesn't strike me as haunted. If the new brewery that the build from scratch is haunted, tat would be something to see!!!

No it looks haunted to me. I think there is a buried treasure chest in the basement too.

I have psychic powers. I foresee that any evidence of "haunting" that is found will convince people who believe in ghosts, and won't convince people who don't.

Wish they could get this location.

I walk by that location a few times a month from McCoy's creek Blvd to park street and yes it is not in the best area, I know for a fact that there are a few 'local independent illegal commodity distributors' right down the street from that location. Within a block or two. I think it would defenitly hamper the walking and biking crowd and might even deter people using automobiles. and toxic ash on the property?? There are many better locations in Brooklyn and the old firehouse would be amazing! I hope Intuition looks around more. Even downtown?

Wonder if Ben has any interest in getting the building relocated to his property

I'm pretty sure the fire station can't pass under the I-95 overpass.  It's also pretty expensive to move it within the confines of the existing Brooklyn neighborhood as you have to take down the trafffic signals.

I for one, think that if this newest proposal comes to pass it will be a VERY positive development for Mixon Town, Brooklyn and McCoys Creek.

Brooklyn is, quite simply, the next great Jacksonville neighborhood.

toxic ash on the property??

Two feet of dirt will be removed from the property in order to mitigate the ash problem.  The site is targeted for cleanup regarless, however the crux of the issue in the context of this conversation is that this particular parcel is apparently way down in the pecking order of sites that are slated for ash remediation.

I think if you open a popular establishment that brings more traffic to the area you will find the "local independent illegal commodity distributors" will move their business elsewhere. Perhaps you never visited the "King Street District" before there was a "a district". It was pretty much overrun with the types of business deals you are describing and I wouldn't have suggested riding a bike there either.

I think we would owe intuition a big thank you for helping discourage that type of illegal activity and elevating the area. It only takes one business to start it.

Are you talking about the old clubhouse building at the closed Forest Street Park?

Yes that building. Before or even during renovations we could check it out for you. We have found renovations actually sparks the activity because they are use to a building a certain way. Our investigations usually take a few hours. We can do it during the day but at night there would be less traffic and noise.

Since the original front facing dormer was long ago removed (see photos in Dr.Wood's book Jacksonville's Architectural Heritage) would it be preposterous to suggest the roof system could be removed so the building could scoot below the overpass at Forest St.?

I was grabbed by the arm at the Spanish Hospital in St Aug. And again at the Jail in GCS. I can also hear them if its in the right frequency. Some I can hear like if I were speaking with a living person.

It looks like the Forest property purchase won't be happening. Ever since it was first announced this purchase was going to be of city property and require environmental hazard abatement, I've been telling everyone I had zero confidence this would come to fruition.

Agree looks dead. I just posted similar comment in another thread where this article was posted.
