Urban Jacksonville

Thursday, May 29th is Downtown Jacksonville’s final rooftop party. This will be the third party the city has thrown on top of Water Street Garage. The parking garage parties are part of a larger program called Make a Scene Downtown.

The plan is to change the venues each month to showcase how much downtown has to offer. For example next month the parties will move to Hemming Plaza and will be called Party in the Plaza. (June 5, 12, 19 & 26 from 5-8 pm)

It’s free and there will be live music, drink specials, giveaways and food. Jacksonville Confidential had this to say about the last party

They had free draft beer, a hotdog stand, another food stand with $6 kabobs, and a cigar stand. The Reggae band members were…..decent, well until they started playing the electric slide. The theme was kind of beachy, which I thought was tacky. It probably would have been better if more people where there.

DO NOT let me catch you doing this:

WTF is with everyone doing the electric slide?! Am I missing something? Maybe I just don’t konw how to have fun anymore. Check out this video of AJ’s Riverside Street Party. St. Louis style ribs and Electric Slidin, Erry Friday on May Street in Riverside.
