About
Awarded one of the top ten neighborhoods in America in 2010 by the American Planning Association, this ride takes you to the Riverside – Avondale area, one of the wealthiest areas of Jacksonville and popular with those families who prefer to own large old Southern Style homes, with cool shady oak lined streets and easy access to the river near downtown Jacksonville. This attraction set alongside the St. Johns River sees the tides of change where after the great Jacksonville fire of 1901 it prospered with people moving out of Jacksonville to here, then it decayed in the 50’s and 60’s and now there is rebirth. The richness and variety of homes seen on this ride is remarkable. Architectural gems include Prairie, Colonial Revival, Georgian, Shingle, Queen Anne/Victorian, Bungalow and Tudor styles and they are in abundance along the St Johns River. Free Parking.
