Urban Jacksonville

One of Springfield’s most successful and loved businesses, Shantytown Pub, turned two last Friday. After two years they’re still going strong and have outlasted a few other notable Springfield businesses during that time. I attribute their success to the hard working owners and loyal patrons from in and out of the neighborhood.

Shantytown has been one of many bright spots in Springfield over the past year and I am looking forward to another year. If you like, leave your thoughts, thanks and photos for Shantytown, here are some of mine.

Top 5 Shantytown Memories

1. The day I saw the new mural on the side of the building.
2. Urban Jacksonville blog party
3. DJing at the Partisan the Sea after party with Dennis from Thought & Theory
4. Seeing the Vice Magazine bathroom wallpaper for the first time (in it’s pristine state). I thought it was a brilliant idea.
5. The first Shantytown post on Urban Jacksonville
6. Any cold night in the backyard with the fire pit going

The Vice Magazine Wallpaper This is what it looked like about two years ago.

The Backyard Always changing, some of Jacksonville’s most dope graff.
