Although the city delayed construction on Riverfront Plaza Downtown by a month, permitting for the park amenities is moving forward.

The city is reviewing a permit application for the shell of the Riverfront Plaza Cafe at the site of the former Jacksonville Landing at an estimated cost of $3.5 million. The permit application is for the cafe shell and does not include the playground.
