TAKE-2's first PLACE: The Historic Springfield neighborhood near downtown Jacksonville, FL is perfectly suited for a take-2. Our place - constructed in 1913 - anchors the corner of East 3rd Street and Walnut. The 2-story, 7,500 square-foot building has been mostly vacant for the past 20 years. Using the skilled and willing labor available through local recovery/reentry centers, this relevant piece of history is taking on new life.
