The Jacksonville Planning Commission endorsed legislation Thursday to turn an eyesore that is highly visible to Downtown commuters into part of a new development in the Gateway Jax project.

Commissioners voted 6-0 to recommend approval of ordinances providing a land-use amendment and rezoning for parcels at 901, 937 and 940 N. Main St. to allow a mix of office, commercial retail, service establishments, restaurants and multifamily dwellings on the properties.

901 N. Main St. is the site of the unused parking structure that remains from the demolished Park View Inn on the southern border of Springfield. Now shielded by Gateway Jax cladding, the structure had for years been visible to thousands of cars traveling west on State Street.
