This historically designed professional office building was constructed in 2010 and is
located in the heart of Riverside/Avondale. The building’s exterior is Prairie style, with
a wraparound porch intentionally designed to represent the historic neighborhood.
In 2011, this unique commercial property received both the City of Jacksonville and
the Florida Trust for Historic Preservation Award (statewide) for compatible infill design. In 2010 immediately upon completion, the building was included in the
Riverside/ Avondale Preservation Association annual Parade of Homes, representing
commercial infill in the R.A.P. Historic District. The CRO zoning allows for mix use
development.
Regardless of its intended “residential” appearance, the building is constructed using
state-of-the-art exterior materials, providing for low future maintenance. It includes
energy efficient windows, spray-foam insulation throughout, a four (4) zoned HVAC
system, a standing seam metal roof, as well as monitored internal fire suppression
and security systems. The building was designed to be ADA compliant.
The high-spec building interior is a mix of both period and modern design elements.
For example, all floors are either wood, tile or carpet. Glass paneled doors all include
a glass transom above. The four (4) bathrooms are tiled waist high. One includes a
shower. Light fixtures are Lightolier. The upstairs space includes a breakroom and
designated library space. The downstairs space includes a secretarial station and a
spacious conference room. All four (4) HVAC units were replaced in 2024 with energy
efficient Trane systems. All spaces are wired for Ethernet and communication lines.
The site is well landscaped with a separately metered irrigation system and a privacy
fence.
