Nearly four years in the making, a new version of The Related Group’s proposed development on the Downtown Southbank is poised to move forward after the Jacksonville City Council approved a revised incentive package for the $202.75 million project.

Related’s project also would include an eight-story apartment building, a nine-story parking garage, a 4,000-square-foot riverfront restaurant and a 1,000-square-foot ship store selling beverages, ice, snacks and other items to users of the nearby boat ramp.
