The Hidden History Behind Downtown Jacksonville's Street Names

Every day, thousands of people travel along downtown Jacksonville’s streets without giving much thought to the origins of their names. Yet, hidden in plain sight, these familiar thoroughfares tell stories of the city’s founding, its early settlers, political ambitions, and transformation from a small frontier settlement into a major Florida city. Some streets honor American presidents and political figures who helped shape Florida’s transition from Spanish to American control. Others commemorate Jacksonville’s earliest residents, including members of the Hart family, whose influence remains visible on the city’s street grid two centuries later. Other streets received their names from natural landmarks, neighborhood institutions, or the everyday activities of early Jaxsons. Together, these names provide a window into the people, places, and events that shaped the city during its formative years.

OPINION | The Age of Austerity: Amendment 3 funding collapse will be political grist

Florida voters approved Amendment 3 last week, and for homeowners it will be a boost, increasing the homestead exemption to $150,000 next year and $250,000 the year after. It also lowers the cap on assessment increases for non-homestead properties to 5%. And it severely limits what local governments can spend property tax collections on, restricting expenditure to police, fire, infrastructure, government operations, and other “core functions.”
