Review & FAQ:
Spanning nearly six acres, Memorial Park was created in 1919 and can be found alongside the St. Johns River. It is the third oldest park in the city and is situated in one of the most historic neighborhoods near Jacksonville’s downtown area. The park, which is now listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places, was originally built as a way of honoring the 1,200 Floridians who died during World War I. Today, it is a popular place for residents and visitors to enjoy an evening outdoors, read a book in the shade, go for a jog, or try your luck at fishing.
