By 2018, the former site of Crawdaddy’s Restaurant, which closed in 2004, will be transformed in to a luxury apartment community named Broadstone River House. This nearly 4-acre lot is adjacent to the Duval County School Board building and sits alongside the redeveloped Southbank Riverwalk.

The complex is a project by Alliance Residential Company, who would like to begin development no later than early next year. John Zeledon is the North Florida Managing Director of Alliance Residential, a Phoenix-based company. Alliance is also working with Dwell Design Studios, who recently completed the new Broadway Riverside apartments, as well as Riverwalk Jacksonville Development, who they have contracted to buy part of the property.
