I don't know . My guess would be Hemming Plaza because of the history of the location.

I remember the Times Union describing the intersection of St. Johns Bluff & JTB as the new epicenter of Jacksonville. That was before the 9A overpass was installed.

The Center would be in downtown...I guess it is Hemming Plaza since we didn't get many educated answers.
