These Firemen and FireLadies were great! They were kind enough to let us use their restrooms. We…read morework outside closed Precinct. David even offered us coffee and the lady offered us bottled water. We declined, because we pack a cooler of water every time we work on voting days. We had coffee before we left home. They had about three calls while we were here today. They were ready to go in a matter of minutes after the call. Nice meeting all of you. Take care and Happy Holidays.

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.

This definitely a secure place to work. The Guards at the front entrance have a very strict and…read morehigh standard to enforce. 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.
