Dated but clean and well maintained, the Charles E Federal Building in downtown Jacksonville is…read morehome to lots of government agencies and contractors. There is public parking available along the street (metered by the COJ) as well as in the rear parking lot (more expensive private parking here.) Security is tight at the main entrance so be prepared to lose the belt and all of your accessories so they can scan you through. It reminds me of an airport, as you have to put all your bags and belongings into a bin for X Ray. The guards and homeland security are very nice but they take their job seriously and I appreciate that. Currently, due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, the building is mostly closed to the public unless you have a special appointment. They generally aren't letting anyone in right now unless you work in the building and have a badge. Snack machines and a mail drop/ATM are located on the ground floor. Restrooms are available there as well. I'm glad to work in a clean and secure building like this and the best part is that it's located right in the heart of downtown Jacksonville.

You must have ID to enter the bldg. you also need to be prepared to remove ear rings, everything in your pockets, to take your shoes off to be scanned as well as your purse. You must now have to have an appointment with IRS to enter the building now. IRS is not the only dept. in the building. There are multiple Gov't Agencies in the Federal Building. They have a restaurant on the first floor to get a bite to eat, breakfast or lunch. They also have the Federal Credit Union in the ground floor as well. The building is well maintained. The service people do a great job and the cleaning staff do a wonderful job as well. The only tip I might have is: I think they should update the handicapped ramp. If you are facing the building, it's on the right side. No visitor can enter the building before 8am.

After the Yelp event that I hosted at the downtown Library, I signed up for a library card. I checked out their website and was happy to see I could reserve books at the San Marco location. I was alerted when they were ready for pick up, and they give you ample time to pick them up too. I parked for free right in front of the library, and there was a security guard that greeted me at the door. I picked up my books off the "hold" shelf, and then it was a self check out! I didn't even speak to anyone! I just scanned my card, scanned the books, and left - honor system style. The self check out was so high tech and offered other suggestions based on the books I picked out. There were lots of kids at this location the 3 times I've visited. I didn't explore the library much, but am so happy about the services offered here. I've read 2.5 books so far for the first time in years! I'm a reader now! Thanks Jacksonville Public Library!

I took a friend of mine to the distribution yesterday at the Ramona Flea Market. It does not say on their website, but you are supposed to go at 9:00 a.m., pick up a numbered ticket, and then they tell you to return at noon for the food. Makes sense, but it doesn't work that way. Arrived back at noon and no volunteers were around. Others waiting told us to just wait with the other 500+ people who showed (my friend's estimate was 800 people). At 12:30, after waiting in no shade, the volunteers came meandering up. The hold-up? A 30 minute "prayer vigil for the poor and hungry." Not very well thought out, should have been held prior to the starting time in my opinion. After the prayer vigil, the "man in charge" came up, stood on a box, and then proceeded to lead a group prayer of thanks for the food and to save those who needed it. Very inapropriate. Most people who showed up did not know of the number system and were not pleased when they started calling numbers. A lot of pushing, shoving and complaining commenced and the volunteers seemed to really enjoy the show. No one, not even the self-identified "man in charge" with his Starbucks coffee, hobnobbing and joking with the people, seemed to take control or even attempt to diffuse or calm the situation. All in all, it was a very frustrating and upsetting situation and my friend received 4 pkgs of bagels, 1 pkg ea hot dog & hamburger buns, 2 loafs of bread, a head of lettuce, 2 moldy tomatoes and a small bag of sprouted potatoes. The bread items were still good (expiration date was today) but it will take work to make the tomatoes & potatoes edible - no complaints though in that department. My advice? Get the rules straight and let people know about the ticket system. Have the volunteers start on time and have someone organize it better...

Gleaners has been a service going on for nearly 20 years helping the poor, the unemployed and those who fall between the cracks get food. It started small and had it's ups and downs, but volunteers are still working to help others. Sometimes they may be slow, or the line long, but free food attracts people. The philosophy goes back to the old testament, where folks collected food from the sides of large farms, called Gleaning. Gleaners dispatch is a Christian organisation that relies on donations. They collect food in trucks, gas, maintenance, and insurance isn't free so they do ask for a small donation. It's common for folks to leave with all the food they can carry, or wheel if you bring your own wagon or cart, or make multiple trips to their car and most are feeding families. So drop by, check the place out. Volunteers and donations are always welcome.
