Jacksonville in the 1950s.

Hello..My name is Carol and I lived In Jacksonville in the 1950s.  My late husband was a resident doctor at the old Hope Haven Hospital.  I was wondering if the hospital still exists.  Yes, I am very old--78 now.  But I have great memories of Jacksonville.

Here is a link to what Hope Haven is now.

For some reason I was thinking it used to be on Atlantic Blvd but I could be wrong.

Would love to hear of your memories in 1950's Jacksonville and see any pictures if you have any.

Seems to me I remember something near University and Atlantic? On Atlantic blvd. But it was a long time ago.

The hospital was torn down and is now home to an apartment complex. It was located near Atlantic/University, just past Empire Point.
