    As Jacksonville’s Museum of Science & History looks to move to a new, bigger facility across the St. John’s River, it’s opening its archives for all to see.  MOSH has been collecting things for a long time: 80-odd years. It’s been in its current building on the Southbank since 1969, but it will close Sept. 1 until it reopens in the old Shipyards area in a few years. Jacksonville Today thanks our sponsors.

    Jacksonville climbed higher this year in a national ranking of parks systems. The U.S. Trust for Public Land ranked Jacksonville’s parks 64th of the 100 biggest cities in the country.

    Obnoxious odors are still a problem for several neighborhoods near a Jacksonville industrial plant on the city’s west side. Residents with that complaint attended an open house Thursday regarding the air permit renewal of International Flavors & Fragrances Inc. at 2051 Lane Ave N. Many have blamed IFF for “obnoxious turpentine-like” smells. Cindy Mathieson of Murray Hill lives about 5 miles from the plant.
