Uh, yeah, I see lots of interested parties who have that need flocking to the site.

And the bus line...it is a major hub, isn't it?

From what I've been told, this was THE place to go in Jacksonville many years ago.  I still think it is a major shopping destination for many people who live in that area especially those who don't drive.

I understand that is too, and whatever happens I hope that area will continue to meet their shopping needs.  

I've never visited Gateway but it is part of my earliest memories of driving through Jacksonville as a child.  I have a drawing of Jacksonville I made when I was 6 or 7 that consists of the Independent Life, Gulf Life, and Prudential buildings along with Gateway and the hotel that was adjacent to it.
The tourist would realize at once that he had struck the Land of Flowers - the City Beautiful!
