Jacksonville may be getting its first true skyscraper
Could Jacksonville soon be getting its first Metropolis-style skyscraper? That may well be the case if Bayard Spector feels so inclined. He has bought the Nolan building from Bailey Publishing which could end up as a 70 story complex with a 169 room 5 star hotel, 469 residences, over 1000 parking spaces and a 35,000 square-feet ballroom for everyone’s banquet and dancing needs.
But that’s not the limit of Spector’s vision. Also thrown into the mix is the possibility of a spa, a recording studio, restaurants and a nightclub. All in all, expect to not get much left out of a 1.5 million square feet of space.
