About JACKSONVILLE UNITY PLAZA INC

Jacksonville Unity Plaza Inc is a Florida 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation formed in 2012 to create and operate Unity Plaza, an urban park and amphitheater on Riverside Avenue in downtown Jacksonville. The organization has worked in partnership with city agencies, developers and cultural partners to deliver public programming and to steward the plaza as a community gathering place. The organization is registered with the State of Florida and has filed IRS Form 990 returns; recent filings show continued ownership/management of plaza-related assets and limited operating revenue and expenses consistent with a property-stewardship nonprofit. While the organization has been the subject of local media coverage and community programming efforts (particularly during the mid-2010s through 2022), there is not an active standalone official website that could be confirmed at the time of this profile.
