A vacant site next to Deutsche Bank's Gate Parkway main campus is in review for more of what already is planned or prevalent in the St. Johns Town Center area.
Up to 300 apartments, 25,000 square feet of office and medical space, 50,000 square feet of commercial space and 110 hotel rooms are envisioned.

"If you look at all of the activity around this location, there is no question in Jacksonville, Florida, that it is the area to live, work and play," said developer Chris Morgan with the Cantrell & Morgan real estate company.

The almost 19-acre site is at southwest Gate Parkway and Deerwood Park Boulevard.

That site has been cleared for development for a long time.  Glad to see something finally being proposed...and it's mixed.

That traffic light is also welcomed at that library.
