About this Event
On Saturday January 25th, join The Jaxson’s Mike Field for a guided walking tour of Springfield, one of Jacksonville’s most popular historic neighborhoods.
Established as a mixed-use neighborhood north of Downtown Jacksonville in 1869, Springfield is home to some of the city’s best examples of historic architecture in a wide variety of styles.
In recent years Springfield’s walkable streets and attractive buildings have made it one of the hottest neighborhoods in the Urban Core, and as a result, it has seen considerable change, including new development and the pressures of gentrification and displacement. The tour will explore the iconic neighborhood’s history and the trends shaping its future.
A portion of tour sales will go to support SPAR Council. Established in 1974, SPAR is a grassroots non-profit organization devoted to the preservation and revitalization of the Historic Springfield neighborhood.
