Public Access Improvements for Northbank Riverwalk

[GatorShane]

Duck Tours are a great idea.As I have stated before there are many venues on the river that could be serviced such as The Landing. The Cummer, MOSH, The new Artist Market, Metro Park, not to mention the proposed Naval Ship Museum.

I know that a second-phase plan for the market involves building a dock right at the site.

There's a nice article in the T-U this morning about the market: http://jacksonville.com/community/my_westside_sun/2009-01-31/story/riverside_group_marketing_an_idea_for_saturdays

In some circles, where I keep a tight lip when unsure, I hear with varying degrees of certainty that the ultimate plan for any future extensions added to the River walk on the North bank, are to include connecting the destinations of the Cummer through the Olmsted Gardens, and Metropolitan park.

This leaves me wondering about the status of the old Kahn/Ford building.
Is its only hope closely related as a streetcar barn, maintenance facility and link to Exchange Club island?

Very curious here!
