The Groover-Stewart building
downtown has been sold and is
headed for a renovation and new
occupants. A limited liability
corporation based in Chicago
paid $2.05 million for the fourstory, 53,000-square-foot
building.

Morgar Realty, said American Credit Corp. of
This Week's Circulars
Boston will assume ownership.
It will renovate the building and occupy most of
it.
Knight said most of the building, 25 N. Market
St., has been vacant since the Public
Defender’s Office moved out in 2011.

HOVER FOR CIRCULAR
It was built in 1925 as the Groover­Stewart
Drug Co. Building. The company was one of
Florida’s leading makers and distributors of
pharmaceuticals in the 1920s and ’30s.
The building was placed on the National
Register of Historic Places in 1992. The
application called it “the most elaborate of
Jacksonville’s four­story vernacular industrial
designs by the firm of Marsh & Saxelbye.”

Momentum Real Estate Partners of Miami paid $39 million for Terraces at Town Center,
5140 Gate Parkway. The 240­unit complex was built in 2013. Brian Moulder handled the
sale for CBRE.
Venterra Realty Management of Webster, Texas, paid $36,250,000 for the Links at Windsor
Parke apartments at 13700 N. Sutton Park Drive. The 280­unit complex was built in 1994
and last sold for $33.6 million in 2012.
DAILY’S IT IS
I had a story Tuesday about Daily’s planning a convenience store and gas station on
Hendricks Avenue between Dunkin’ Donuts and Hendricks Avenue Baptist Church. The
property had changed hands last month but I couldn’t find out the plans for it.

Then I had a call from a reader asking “Is it true that Daily’s …?” A call to Daily’s confirmed it.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR YOU
So there you go, readers are great sources of information. Thanks.
U.S. Rep. Corrine

to unusual
organization
Meanwhile, Daily’s is looking at completely redoing its Shell gas station a little farther south
at San Jose and University boulevards. It’s still early in the process, but the station would
come down and be replaced by a full convenience store. The pumps would stay as they are,
though. There’s not enough room for more of those.
And it has land under contract for a new store on Florida 13, just south of Race Track Road
in St. Johns County.

JUMPING TO CIRCLE K
Speaking of convenience stores, all the Kangaroo Express stores in the area will start
becoming Circle K stores next month. Canada­based Alimentation Couche­Tard bought the
Pantry chain, and its major brand Kangaroo Express, a year ago for $1.7 billion.

It’s brought a few of its own changes to Kangaroo Express, including the Polar Pop sodas.
But it’s just starting to change all the names, which should take several months.
PLANS OFF DUNN

Main Street fatal crash
A new three­building complex is going up on Monaco Drive, just off Dunn Avenue and just
west of I­95 on the Northside.
Ben Gottlieb is developing it and putting in a 4,000­square­foot, 24­hour laundry there. He
plans to lease the other 30,000 square feet out.
He’s hoping for a doctor’s office or perhaps a 24­hour urgent care facility.
Tier 1 Construction is doing the $1.03 million construction and the $70,000 build­out on the
laundry. Gottlieb paid $535,000 for the 2.4 vacant acres last year.
O’STEEN’S UPDATE
Last week’s column had an item about O’Steen’s Auto Body buying the former Kabuto

restaurant on Atlantic Boulevard at Tresca Road. Owner Mark O’Steen has since told me
that he does plan to expand his shop there. He thought about bulldozing the building, but it
turned out to be so solid he’s renovating it into a body shop.

He expects the renovation to take four to six months and said he’ll hire another dozen people
or so when it opens. He’s also keeping the shop further up Tresca that he’s had for 20 years.
WESTSIDE BUYS
Pattillo Industrial Real Estate has made a couple of significant purchases on the Westside.
It paid $7.5 million for a 137,968­square­foot building on 7 acres at 6595 Pritchard Road,

just east of I­295. Vice President Peter Anderson said the building is leased.

But Pattillo also paid $7,175,000 for 96 vacant acres farther west on Pritchard. There,
Anderson said, it plans to build two or three distribution­type buildings to lease out. It could
handle up to 1.5 million square feet, he said, and he expects it to happen in the next five
years.
