St. Johns Town Center anchors the area’s retail and food scene
"Locals are attracted to the diverse shopping and dining that this part of the city offers," says Bavington. To the north is the Beach Boulevard Flea Market, a covered shopping center open every day to locals hunting for a bargain. The market has a number of vendors selling home goods, appliances and fresh produce all in one spot.

Public green spaces provide quiet escapes and outdoor fun
But this area is more than just shops and good eats. You'll also find a handful of public green spaces nearby to enjoy the beautiful Florida weather. The peaceful retreat, Beach and Peach Urban Park is located along Peach Drive. The park contains a five-acre fishing pond and a wooden deck overlooking the placid waters. Many come here to use the walking trails or the bike jumps toward the back of the grounds. Forestry Tower Park is a simple community gathering spot with shaded pathways, a play area, and tables underneath a gazebo. The park's most notable feature is the decommissioned fire tower that now stands as a landmark, towering over a melody of cedar, pines, and oak trees.
