Two historic Downtown buildings one with plans for a concert venue and rooftop bar and the other the proposed Lofts at Cathedral apartments now are designated local landmarks.
The Jacksonville City Council voted 19-0 on June 22 to grant both structures local historic designations.
Lofts at Cathedral
The Vestcor Companies subsidiary VC Cathedral LLC wanted the final portion of the former YWCA at 325 E. Duval St. to be designated a historic landmark.
Vestcor wants to convert both portions of the building into 120 apartment units.
Ryan Hoover, president of Vestcor subsidiary TVC Development Inc., said June 21 the company plans to apply for loans and historic incentives through the Downtown Investment Authority to help finance the estimated $28.8 million redevelopment.

The city issued a permit March 9 for Realco Recycling Co. Inc. to remove interior finishes at the proposed Lofts at Cathedral Downtown at 325 E. Duval St., but there are no immediate plans to start the work.
It’s a step toward Vestcor Inc.’s plan to turn the former Community Connections building into a multifamily project.
The permit application involves the “removal of interior finish systems to reveal structure for future design for building remodel for future use.”
Realco Recycling is the contractor for the $198,000 project involving 37,000 square feet of space.
Ryan Hoover, president of Vestcor’s TVC Development Inc., said previously that the interior demolition would provide “a better idea of what we are working with on the inside for design.”
