The Plaza at Town Center Entertainment Complex
Featuring as much as 300,000 square feet of restaurants, bars, an open air concert area and retail, the Plaza at Town Center is scheduled to open in Spring 2010. This project involves the combination of existing vacant retail space and new construction to create a centralized entertainment complex in the middle of Jacksonville's rapidly growing Southside.
Markets at Town Center Site Plan
Developed by Pinehill Development Company, the 52.5 acre Markets at Town Center shopping center opened in late 2008, at the corner of Town Center and Gate Parkways. Over a year later, the east section of this 350,000 square foot strip center is still dominated by vacant retail bays. This section of the center will become the Plaza at Town Center.
The Plaza at Town Center
Announced anchors include Dale Earnhardt, Jr's Whisky River (yellow) and BlackFinn American Saloon (red).
Whisky River
Owned by Dale Earnhardt, Jr, Whisky River, a country themed nightclub and music venue, is scheduled to open in March, in an existing retail building. This location will be the first outside of Uptown Charlotte to open.
BlackFinn American Saloon
BlackFinn is a casual environment offering a contemporary American menu complete with a large selection of starters, soups, salads and entrees. Jacksonville's BlackFinn will become the chain's 10th location. Other locations include Addison and Arlington,TX, Bethesda,MD, Charlotte, Cincinnati, Naperville,IL, Richmond, Royal Oak,MI and Washington, DC.
Currently under construction, BlackFinn is scheduled to open late Spring 2010.

"We had a great opportunity to open the first Whisky River in Charlotte and the response was amazing. We're taking that good growth and expanding it to some other locations, nationally, now," said Earnhardt Jr. "I think Jacksonville is a prime market for this kind of establishment."https://www.firstcoastnews.com/news/local/news-article.aspx?provider=rss&storyid=149687
