Jacksonville's iconic Friendship Fountain will see some of its regular events relocated as construction activity in the surrounding area makes the usual setup impractical. The Jacksonville Parks Department announced the changes, giving attendees a heads-up to expect a different experience for the time being.

The announcement sparked questions from residents curious about the scope of the ongoing construction near the fountain, as well as the demolition of the former Museum of Science and History building in the vicinity.

Friendship Fountain, a cherished landmark along the St. Johns River, has long served as a gathering spot for community events and casual visits alike. While the relocation affects some programming, the Parks Department's proactive communication suggests a commitment to keeping those traditions alive during the construction period.

Locals who regularly attend events at the fountain are encouraged to check with the Jacksonville Parks Department for updated venue details before heading out. This story was originally reported by Yahoo News.
