The Avenues Mall - Jacksonville Florida | ERA_Productions

[@ERA_Productions]

What are your thoughts on The Avenues Mall, and what do you think its future holds? P.S: sorry that the mic quality isn’t as good in this video. I’ve been in the process of changing computers, and I had to use my old computer to edit this video still, so I was using a different microphone than usual, and I didn’t get my settings 100% correct on this one. So I do apologize for it sounding a little bit crappy. Anyways, thank you for your understanding!

Glad to see this mall is still doing good. I went there on the weekends when I was stationed in Mayport. Regency was to run down back then to. Love your videos.

I used to work at Dillard’s at the Avenues back in the summer of 1996. It’s crazy but not much has changed since then. Everything looks just how I remembered it.

I lived in Jacksonville for 25 years and left in 2015. I lived right down the road from this mall so I have logged quite a few hours inside here. Glad to see it is still surviving against the online retailers.

Nice video. I've recently found out about this mall and would like to visit it. I'm unable to check it out myself at the moment, but this video gave me a little taste of the experience.

Glad something finally is in the former Sears space

Awesome! The mall does look quite clean and upscale. Carpets are always a risky and questionable choice for malls, but with that weird busy pattern going on, I guess it's harder to tell if they're dirty, so it works out. Simon usually does pretty well with their malls, so it's good to see another success for them. The mall is too busy for me, but your video is a nice way to visit it and see!

I'm glad to see The Avenues Mall holding its own to The St. John's Towne Center. You're right about one thing, It did kill off Regency Square Mall for sure. Thanks for posting.

Amazing video Andrew! I wish my school trips took me to malls lol! 😂

[@BoratWanksta]

I've only one school trip, where we all visited a mall. It was my 8th grade school trip to DC, and we visited(I believe) Pentagon City Mall on the Virginia part of the DC metro area. It was a nice mall, and I hope that mall is still doing well to this day.

Great video! Yeah, I’m surprised, I thought Belk was around in the North. It’s pretty prominent around my area.

[@ERA_Productions]

Yeah, we don’t have Belk in Ohio. Closest is West Virginia and Maryland for me

[@ZeeMann_Retail]

Wow, that's interesting.

[@ZeeMann_Retail]

Oh yeah, and I believe the empty space is for the Conn's and Belk partnership. I noticed Conn's lettering on the wall, and it reminded me of the Belk around my area with Conn's space reserved for electronics and furniture.

[@ERA_Productions]

Thanks for the info!

[@TheNewgreatlife]

Great video! Your camera shots were perfect and breathtaking! The Avenues is one of my favorite malls architecturally and Sarku Japan is my favorite food court restaurant chain as well lol. You have great taste! Just to note: St. John's Town Center opened in 2005 and was expanded for the first time in 2007. The Avenues didn't start to really feel the punch until 2010. Between 2010 and 2014 many of the better stores relocated to St. John's. Also, you might want to double-check and proofread that description man. It's a little all over the place with run-on sentences, improper verb usage, and words that are missing letters.

[@ERA_Productions]

Appreciate the support! And thanks for the extra info. I was going off of honestly what I could first find, so I knew some things were probably incorrect, so it’s nice to hear stuff from a local. Also, my description was done with a voice to speech Thing on iPhone, so it probably wasn’t perfect, my apologies.

[@TheNewgreatlife]

@@ERA_Productions No problem. Like I said before, overrall you did a fantastic job, especially with the limited time you had, and yeah I know lol. I recognized a good chunk came from Wikipedia because I wrote the part that you spoke in the video LOL! It's all good though. You spoke of the arcade in the food court but didn't include it in the video. Did you have time to visit it off-camera?

[@therealaustinpowers1967]

The Regency Square Mall certianly took a hit since the St. John's Town Center opened, but the Avenues Mall seems to be holding strong.

[@DamnZtar]

Good video you did on my birthday!

[@Emily-r1n]

Wow I didn't know about the Zane store until I saw it at the mall in Jacksonville (in this video)

[@aloe_vera_414]

[@ERA_Productions]

[@Retail_Adventures_With_Alex]

[@ERA_Productions]

Thank you!!

[@RetroPokeGamer17]

You should see this mall all decorated for the Christmas season

[@WhittyPics]

Looks like it is booming

[@brianstevens3963]

It's an average mall and jax is an average city in Florida no different from Orlando or Tampa I've spent much time in all three cities and they all seem OK !! only difference is jax is a little bit quieter and slow paced I live in st augustine so I'm no expert on any of the cities just my opinion
