The District, a Healthytown concept, is an entirely new approach in community living. It is a place where people can get the most out of life, mind, body and soul. Here, residents will have everything they need to live the most healthful of lives—and to feel truly alive. Healthier lives are, indeed, happier lives. And The District is designed from the ground up to provide every essential element for promoting fitness and for living the healthiest of lives.
The District is just minutes away from outstanding museums, theaters, concert halls, fine dining, nightlife and more.
Unintentional exercise is designed into The District to provide residents the healthiest options for getting around.
The proposed location for The District is on a bend in the picturesque, historic St. Johns River.
The District is a natural environment nestled into the bustling center of an exciting, vibrant cosmopolitan city.
The District is designed for Generation H, a generation defined not by age but by the common belief that the most fulfilling, most productive of lives are achieved by healthy living. This is a belief that applies to personal habits as well as to the entire environment. It is an environment that includes—but goes far beyond—bike paths, fitness centers and daily activity. It includes an entire community that promotes good health and happiness.
At the heart of The District will be the Base Camp, a very special place that provides a wealth of services, from yoga classes and personal health counseling to community gardening and a health concierge. Computer technology will also be harnessed to enhance the fitness experience. In short, Base Camp is an entirely new—and healthier—way to think of the traditional community clubhouse.
The District is conceived for a spectacular setting on the banks of the beautiful St. Johns River in downtown Jacksonville, Florida. With scenic views of both the river and the downtown skyline, this unique setting will be home to a place that empowers residents to achieve, fuller, richer, healthier lives in every way.
