The city is reviewing civil engineering plans for The Fountains at Westside, a mixed-use development planned in West Jacksonville.
Developer Cross Regions Group submitted the plans Dec. 2.
Kimley-Horn Jacksonville is the civil engineer.
The St. Johns River Water Management District issued an environmental resource permit Oct. 31 for the project’s mass grading plans at the 26.2-acre site at southeast Lane Avenue and Ramona Boulevard off Interstate 10 at the former Westside Plaza.
Cross Regions Group is also the developer of the 100-acre The Fountains at Saint Johns mixed-use development at County Road 210 West and Interstate 95.
President and CEO David Ergisi said the Westside project will be similar, bringing retail, restaurants, health care and hospitality to the area.
Plans call for it to be developed in multiple phases starting with the renovation of an existing 36,000-square-foot building where Office Depot operates.
“We’re going to bring a very modern and unique design that is going to enhance not only the project, but the entire area,” Ergisi said in May.
At build-out, Ergisi said the project will include up to about 100,000 square feet of retail space.
Outparcels “will bring in key niche users that are needed in the marketplace,” he said.
Previous tenants at the site include The Home Depot and Piccadilly Cafeteria. The Home Depot relocated, and the building later became Johnson’s Family Flea and Farmers Market. Both it and the former Piccadilly structure were demolished.
Cross Regions, through Fountains at Westside LLC, bought the site in four parcels Dec. 23 for about $9.8 million.
Jacksonville-based Grace & Co. Inc. sold the property.
Ergisi said construction on all parcels is expected to be underway within three years.
