We frequent Bisciotti's, Josephine, Mojos and Southern Grounds. All 5 star locations for us. No chains here for shopping either. Everything is a privately owned specialty. Vintage, gifts, clothing, and pet boutique. All of them Top Notch. Steady occasions here for festivals and celebrations as well. Just a great place to spend the day with friends or a romantic date. If you haven't spent a day in Avondale, do yourself a favor and check it out. If you're from Jacksonville, you know, but it's one of the hidden gems of Florida.

What more could you ask for in the heart of an up-and-coming neighborhood like Brooklyn? I live just behind The Brooklyn Station and I find myself here nearly every day. Regency centers owns this shopping plaza and they do a nice job of keeping it maintained and up to date. They are currently paining and doing some stucco work to keep things nice and fresh. There is plenty of parking and although it gets very busy at lunchtime it's pretty easy to maneuver your way through it (just watch for pedestrians!) Rumor has it the JTA Skyway is working on plans to expand its way into the Brooklyn area (first expansion in 25+ years) and I believe this will do wonders for these local businesses when they finally are connected to Downtown & Lavilla.

The dispensaries opens at 9 am, not sure what time the coffee shop opens. One reason for minus one star is sadly the homeless people that live and sleep in the area. Second reason is the Landlords raising the rent so high, they've lost about the 1/4 of tenants. How sad and tragic. The biggest loss is Bogers Shoes and Mixed Fillings Pie Shop. Pros:cars let pedestrians cross at the crosswalk. Great stores on the strip. Cons:Homelessness and Landlord disputes with former tenants. Parking can be difficult. Recommend:yes

The name comes from it is where five roads intersect. It is a hip enclave that draws an eclectic collection of people. It is a great destination if you are in the Jacksonville, Florida area. I love these cool enclaves that give a city a personality. We need these neighborhoods where people can gather and just chill and meld together to be what is beyond a bunch of people, they become a community. Five Points is a cool enclave and I would definitely recommend heading here.

Little Ceaser's is another favourite of mine, and I pop into Smoker Friendly every now and then for a pack of cigarettes (some of the cheapest prices in the area). The big draw for hubby is the Planet Fitness here. There's also a coin laundry, a small mom & pop pharmacy, a Hair Cuttery, and Hot Wok which serves up some pretty decent Chinese food. 3 stars because it's not the best part of town, and don't be surprised if you're asked for money from someone nearly every time you step out of your car. That gets old really quickly. They also could do some work on the parking lot... you'll definitely find your fare share of pot holes here.
