For the first time since 2005 Historic City News readers will have a two-hour window in which to visit and tour the interior of the St Augustine Waterworks Building located in Davenport Park on San Marco Avenue. Saturday’s event is part of the city’s celebration of National Historic Preservation Month.
Historic City News was notified by Florida Department of Transportation Public Information Officer, Monica R. Reifeiss, that traffic will be impacted at the following St Augustine and St Johns County locations where roadwork is being conducted.
Be alert to lane closures and temporary detours, as well as increased congestion in these areas. FDOT employees and contractors will be working on the roadways and need your full attention.

A man and a woman were arrested in St Augustine earlier this week after a drug deal escalated into a robbery and stabbing according to a report received by Historic City News last night.
