Mark, I hear that Court Street looks nothing like it did when I was there in the early to mid 1970s. Did that building replace a lot of the old bars that were in Jacksonville?

Allen,
There are a lot of new buildings in the area of Court St. and a lot of the old ones are still in use, but now as law offices. My resent street B&Ws are all from that area with the OK II image the only old bar I saw.
This old building is right behind that new court house.
The streets were SO packed on Court Street with people at night in those days. The locals hated it. And for good reason. Drunk Marines in a confined area can, at times. lead to problems ha ha.
