Attend some of the regular live events held here, including music concerts and dramatic performances.

Admire the innovative design of the curved complex, which faces the St. Johns River. The mall has an orange roof with white columns and glass.

Browse the boutiques and chain stores in the complex. Buy anything from clothes and accessories to books, electronic goods and homewares in a range of stores. Attend one of the regular events such as a market, an art walk and a live concert.

Dine at one of the many restaurants in the large Founders Food Hall, which takes up almost the entirety of the second floor. Try a range of international cuisine. Decorating the walls of the food court are silhouettes of North Florida’s founding settlers. Eat outside for a view of the river and the central courtyard fountain.

Take the kids to play in the video arcade, known as Ostrich Landing. See the Jacksonville Maritime Heritage Center to learn about the marine history of the city. Its large models of ships, paintings and artifacts date back many centuries.

As the sun sets, enjoy evening drinks in your choice of several bars. Young professionals make their way to the complex after work to revel in the party atmosphere.

Jacksonville Landing is located on the north bank of St. Johns River in the center of Jacksonville. For a change of pace from driving, take the water taxi along the river. The Central Station on the city’s monorail system is just one block from the shopping complex.
