Well Alright.....

I've been riding my bike around One Spark again this year.  I must say that I'm really proud of this City and this event for showcasing downtown and the City in this way.  People are out. (People that would not otherwise be in downtown.) There's live music. There's a sense of culture. There's energy. I see this as nothing but a win for Jax. 

One Spark 2014, just like One Spark 2013, shows that Jax has what it takes to elevate it's game, albeit for a long weekend.  However, it should create momentum.  I especially love seeing people that I know live in Jax, but would never come downtown or take the Skyway.  You can spot them easily, and they're enjoying themselves, as they should.  I guess what I'm saying is that One Spark is a showcase not just for the out-of-towners, but also for the locals that are realizing that this can be a great urban core with vibrancy.  I really enjoy this, and it's exciting.

The camaraderie and mutual assistance among the Creators is just fantastic.  It's' really fun to see people walking around totally blown away by the energy and ideas that are here.   I keep hearing, "We didn't know there were people and ideas like that in Jacksonville."  Just wonderful to see peoples' low expectations of what this city is like shattered into pieces.

My wife and I were there Wednesday and Thursday night and she commented on how polite and friendly everyone was. It was as if we were all on the same page, on the same mission.

We just wrapped up our first live segment on One Spark discussing the largest movers in the art section.

A few random pictures from this afternoon:








Take note. The same people who hang out in Hemming are still hanging out today. They are the least of downtown's concerns.

Last, I'll be helping my friend Gary Sass by taking guests on free tours of one of the underground tunnels from 2pm to 6pm tomorrow at 121 West Forsyth Street.  Gary operates AdLib Luxury Tours and is trying to raise funds to restore the safe under the old Atlantic Bank Building. When that is complete, the next phase will be to work on restoring some of the closed off sections of other tunnels, in an effort to make them once again accessible. Feel free to stop by and say hi. Here are a few underground pics I took earlier today:
