After the defeat, Jaguars President Mark Lamping told media that future talks of development on Lot J are off the table. I think it s time to turn the page on Lot J, Lamping said. We ll leave that behind and, as I said, the next step was going to be development of the Shipyards. We re going to focus our attention on that.
Development on the Shipyards property, directly across Bay Street from Lot J, would go through the Downtown Investment Authority (DIA), Lamping said. The Lot J deal bypassed DIA, and was negotiated solely between the office of Mayor Lenny Curry and the Jags development team.
