QuoteDating back to the end of the Civil War, the Eastside may be Jacksonville's last cohesive 19th century historically black neighborhood still standing. A stone's throw from TIAA Bank Field, it's also one of the city's most walkable and architecturally unique.

Another great photo essay!  What is the location and present status of building #8?

Nice work Ennis, but how can you do a photo tour of the Eastside without visiting the Pat Lockett-Felder monument?

Agreed, great photo essay.  Would love it if you added addresses to each entry.  It would make it easier to add to my map

Thanks! I can't confirm the specific address but I suspect it was on Van Buren and has since been demolished.

Here's a link to the addresses. There's a ton of them, so it takes a little time to match them up with the right photos.
