About Normandy Center

The Normandy Center resides in the J.H. Lindsey Subdivision of southwest Jacksonville, just east of the City’s Normandy Park. Normandy Boulevard opened in 1944. It was named as a memorial to the soldiers that were killed during WWII, when the Allies invaded the Normandy coast of France. The boulevard eventually facilitated large-scale development of the area. After a Lindsey family member and his wife donated the property to the Normandy Community Civic Club in 1953, a clubhouse was built the following year. The Club donated the property to the City in 1985, and the building was renovated and the grounds fenced and landscaped in 1986. A picnic shelter and tables were added in 1993, and in past years the City hosted an annual Kids Kamp at the Center. To increase the children’s enjoyment, a playscape was installed on the grounds in 2005. Additional features:
