JEA is eyeing the former St. Johns River Power Park site as a possible location for a new natural gas plant that could cost $800 million to $1 billion and bring electric generation back to the same place where the utility demolished a coal-fired power plant a few years ago.
The weather-beaten "St. Johns River Power Park" sign still stands at the entrance, but JEA is making moves this year to turn the former electric generating site into "Gateway Commerce Center" with ideas ranging from space rocket recovery to warehouses in the mix.
On a parallel track, JEA also has been looking at ways to use the cleared land at the former St. Johns River Power Park as way to drive economic development on the Northside for such uses as distribution centers, warehouses and even a rocket recovery center.
The entrance to the St. Johns River Power Park site is from New Berlin Road. A map for redeveloping the site shows a new entry road from Heckscher Drive. That new road would be called Blount Island Boulevard entering Gateway Commerce Center directly across Heckscher Drive from the entry gates to JaxPort's Blount Island Terminal to the south.
