context_page_description: The Jacksonville Landing was a festival marketplace in Downtown Jacksonville, Florida. It was located at the intersection of Independent Drive and Laura Street, along the Jacksonville Riverwalk. It was built by the Rouse Company at a cost of $37.5 million and opened in 1987 and officially closed after the 4th of July festivities in 2019. Demolition commenced around October 8, 2019. The 126,000 square feet center was comparable to New York City's South Street Seaport, Boston's Faneuil Hall and Miami's Bayside Marketplace, all developed by Rouse.
context_section_description: The Jacksonville Landing (usually referred to as just the Landing by locals) had a local patronage base of over 65,000 downtown office workers and over 1,000,000 residents in the surrounding metropolitan area of North Florida. According to various Florida travel sources, it had been "an icon" for Jacksonville and "one of the most recognized attractions in Northeast Florida" since it opened in June, 1987. Downtown Improvement District (DID) for Jacksonville claims it was a popular tourist destination.
