Robinson’s Addition Apartments for Rent

Built after the Great Fire of 1901 destroyed Jacksonville’s business district, Robinson’s Addition was designed around the city’s streetcar line and still has remnants of the era, such as an intact former streetcar electrical substation. The wood-framed houses in Robinson’s Addition were built in a range of decades, from the 1910s to the 1970s. Churches and stores occupy some street corners in this downtown neighborhood. The Florida neighborhood’s sidewalks make it easy to reach them.

Robinson’s Addition is in zip code 32209. The neighborhood is bordered by Beaver Street on the south, North McDuff Avenue on the west, and West Second Street on the north. Westbrook Park is on the southwestern side of the neighborhood, and Three Mile Creek crosses the nine-acre space. Residents enjoy a lighted playground and a basketball and volleyball court there.

Downtown Jacksonville is about three miles east of the community, and residents can take the free Beaver Street Trolley downtown.
