The Downtown Project of the Year recognizes a project that has drastically enhanced the economic revitalization of Downtown through the activation of underutilized buildings, job creation or leading design practices.

This year’s award went to Jacksonville Transportation Authority’s Jacksonville Regional Transportation Center, Jacksonville’s iconic new epicenter of transit.

The project was 25 years in the making and opened in the Spring of 2020, despite the pandemic. The Transportation Center, located in LaVilla, connects JTA’s bus-transfer facility, the First Coast Flyer Bus Rapid Transit, the Skyway and a LEED Silver Certified Intercity Bus Terminal.

This project is at the heart of connecting Jacksonville as a community, encouraging smart transit investment and transforming mobility for the entirety of Northeast Florida. Congratulations, JTA!
