Participants in a community discussion about Downtown projects urged city officials to reconsider plans to include residential development and a restaurant at Riverfront Plaza, the former Jacksonville Landing site that is being transformed into a park. 

The facilitated discussion Wednesday drew several dozen people to the Main Library Downtown for what was scheduled as four hours of back-and-forth with city officials on the plaza, resilience and the Riverwalk. Further conversations about other Downtown projects are forthcoming.
