An outdated 65-year-old shopping center near downtown Jacksonville is gone but the site of the former St. Nicholas neighborhood landmark is taking on new life.

Demolished in April 2022, Southgate Plaza is the site for The Jack on Beach, a new 295-unit apartment community featuring resort-style amenities from developers Chance Partners LLC of Jacksonville and EJF Capital LLC based in Arlington Va.
