While cruising the web I came across the Metro Jax website. They have done a series of articles and pictorial reviews of various neighborhoods throughout the Jacksonville Florida area. They are worth a look or two.

There are lots of pictures of the neighborhoods, condos, shopping malls and recreational areas located within this planned community on the Westside.

We consider the Ortega Area as the beginning boundary for the Westside area along the St. Johns River.

They Also did a pictorial feature on the Cecil Field Commerce Center:
