This Week in Jacksonville: Business Edition - Taking a look at 2 transformative downtown developments

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – In this episode of This Week in Jacksonville: Business Edition, Karen Brune Mathis and Ric Anderson from the Jacksonville Daily Record - our news partner with News4JAX - join the conversation to explore two transformative downtown developments: Gateway Jax and the Phoenix Arts and Innovation District.

This week’s show also examined the broader implications of these developments. Jacksonville’s City Council is taking a more measured approach to development incentives, leaning toward tax rebates rather than upfront grants.

Both Mathis and Anderson explained how these policies are shaping a sustainable future for urban growth.

These two projects are part of a larger wave of downtown revitalization.
