Historic Mayport Village

[Sixpencejp]

Hey stjr -
I know your info may have come from the state archives but,
My GGFather Spencer "Pete" Ford worked at the Central garage. I'm pretty sure my GGUncle even owned it at some point.
My question though is that he always told me it was located at the corner of Atlantic Blvd (Then known as The Beach Road) and Old Kings Road in South Jacksonville near San Marco.

Let me know if you think this is plausible or or you have better info than I do.
Thanks Jere P.
