Jack Manilla of Portofino Pools wants to bring the International Swim Hall of Fame — and all the economic impact that comes with it — to Jacksonville.

The International Swim Hall of Fame is in its 50th year of existence, leasing a space owned by the City of Fort Lauderdale. This year, the city hired a developer to redo the several blocks where the facility is currently located.
What the developers came up with didn't sit well with the hall of fame trustees.

Commodore Point was mentioned as a possible location.

Not sure that makes a ton of sense.
