Historic Five Points Jacksonville

Other Cool Neighborhoods in Town

King Street

After several decades of decline, King Street has experienced a revival since 2005 following a successful streetscaping project.  A popular beer bar that opened that year set the tone for later establishments, many of them craft beer oriented. Subsequently, the district has become the plantation house of many bars, restaurants, stores, and night clubs, as well as an arts district and two craft breweries to the north. As a result of this growth, the King Street District emerged as Jacksonville’s beer hub in the 2010s.  More>>http://kingstreetjax.com/
