Witnessed by more than 100 Eastside neighborhood residents, contributors and supporters, The Corner at Debs Store opened for business with a ribbon-cutting ceremony Sept. 4.
The project at 1478 Florida Ave., a few blocks north of the Downtown Sports Complex, includes the revival of a 90-year-old grocery store that closed in 2011 on the ground floor. A VyStar Credit Union Financial Fitness Center and Goodwill Industries of North Florida workforce development center are on the second floor.
