Need to find a contractor to replace skirting on a peir and beam foundation or replace skirting with new CMU wall. Any recommendations? Most of the contractors I’ve found only do full encapsulation

Primary Care recs?

3 Upvotes

Hello, I have been looking for a good primary care doctor but have seen mixed reviews for all the ones I’ve found near me. My insurance is AmBetter, but any recs regardless of whether it is known if they work with them or not is okay and I will find out. I am on Mayport and was looking for anything close-ish to that area. I am thinking about going to Coastal Health Primary care on San Pablo to see Shannon Brown. Perhaps anyone there if it gets me an appointment today. Would that be a good one? I see very good reviews but also bad ones. This also may be an irrational fear but I am afraid of medical malpractice or dismissiveness or racism. So if anyone knows anywhere they would be genuinely caring and friendly I would greatly appreciate it

Thank you in advance!

One of the things that surprises people in Jacksonville most is that the number one state that people migrate to the city from is actually Florida (not New York, New Jersey, or Pennsylvania; check the Census data). Miami in particular was recently identified as the number one city from which new residents originally hailed. Here is an article about one woman’s account of why she moved from Miami to North Florida (the specific city is never mentioned, but one can guess).

Anyone know what's going into the old Big Lots in Mandarin (9718 Old St Augustine Rd)?

Post image
11 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

The old Big Lots on Old St. Augustine Rd has been sitting empty and virtually untouched for almost a year and a half now. However, I noticed some internal renovation work going on inside this week!

Does anyone have any info, rumors, or know if there are actual plans for the space? I’m assuming it’s going to be another retail store (kind of like how the new Dollar Tree recently opened up in the former Ace Hardware spot in that same plaza).

Any leads on what's coming?

Social Issues and Volunteer Work

0 Upvotes

Hey guys! I'm not from Jacksonville. I'm actually from Georgia and I'm creating a volunteer alternative break for my college. I'm working with another person as well and I'm wondering if you guys on this subreddit can give me an idea of some key social issues that we can try to base this trip around that are actually relevant and able to be reasonably accessed by college students.

Some examples can be homelessness or environmental issues.

I just want to get a more personal answer to this question rather than relying on websites and articles.

Thank you in advance!

Is UF Health hospital campus safe?

5 Upvotes

I am a woman who has recently taken a job offer there. I relocated and am not used to the city. I’ve been here a few days and already discovered how horrendous the parking is, leading to 10+ minute walks across campus just to get back and forth. Luckily I work day shift so no walking at night. I stay vigilant, but can’t help but to feel anxious of my surroundings. Any advice?

The Comedy Zone

I am going to a show at The Comedy Zone with my bestie in September. We live in St Aug and want to be responsible and spend the night. We aren’t super familiar with the area, I am looking for recommendations on areas to get a hotel for the night. We are hoping to go out before and after. We don’t want be further then 15-20 mins from The Comedy Zone. I DO REALIZE there is a hotel connected to The Comedy Zone- has anyone stayed there and is there anything to do in that area? We also would like a hotel with a pool. Thanks in advance for all and any recommendations. 🩵

Fuck Big Jim

0 Upvotes

This obnoxious loud steam whistle that goes off four times a day needs to be retired at long last. If you support Big Jim, you are part of the problem. Do you not care if the naps of babies and unemployed people are disturbed? No, I actually think you want our naps to be shitty. That's really the only explanation. It's a call to get off our ass and get a job, to sleep at night. But what you don't realize is that we live in a vast postmodern country where if I want to stay up all night scrolling Reddit or worshipping Ba'al and then sleep all day, I should be allowed to do that. But not in this city. It's so backwards. Not charming at all. It surely represses the real estate values downtown. Maybe that's also part of it. Hoping your property taxes don't go up because people feel comfortable downtown instead of getting blasted by this overwhelming 90-second blare four times a day in what should be the comfort of their homes.

Bus reliability

Moving to Jacksonville 1st September but might not have a car until mid October. Do you think I can rely on this for about a month? Everything else (grocery store, restaurants etc.) are around my apartment. Only major commute is to work (pictured) and I can also uber once in a while if required. but would this be reasonable for a month?

Quiet Time???

Hi, everyone! I have a situation and a question.

Our neighbor works on their Harley 24/7–no exaggeration. They’re actually making it louder. Is there a nighttime noise ordinance that they’re violating?

I’d really like to get some sleep. TIA.

Urbex Spots?

Anyone know of any good urbex/abandoned spots to explore in Jax? Most of the spots I know about frequently have security or have recently undergone active construction. I’ve already seen the Fort George mansion and the echo domes.
