coalition of four Jacksonville art-based nonprofits want to turn The Armory Building at the northeast corner of State and Market Streets into a central arts hub for the city.
But they're not the only ones with plans for the building. The Sons of the Confederate Veterans, Kirby-Smith Camp 1209 — an organization of direct descendants of Confederate soldiers — wants to lease the empty historic building from the city for meetings, events and history exhibits.
City Council member Kimberly Daniels has introduced a bill to approve a license agreement between the Sons of the Confederate Veterans and the city. She plans to discuss it with Council President Bill Gulliford at 2:30 p.m. Tuesday.
