I just saw that.  The Business Journal headline is a bit optimistic, if not misleading, "JEA tower could soon be redeveloped" although the subheads clarify that bids are being sought.

How to tell us your reporter is new to Jacksonville without telling us your reporter is new to Jacksonville - no mention of Ivey's or the Embers in the article.  :)

The bizjournal has had some suspect articles make it to print as of late.  Yesterday I read one article that was based solely on the word of an Instagram account that is known for lazy reporting.  There's a group of several instagram accounts that want to break news, so any research done is with unrelated parties and never fact checked with anyone close to the project.  Another bizjournal article that I read today by the same author misconstrued Jax and Neptune beach several times in the same article.

JBJ churns through reporters. Errors of unfamiliarity are not surprising.
