Prime Osborn Convention Center

Jacksonville's Prime F. Osborn III Convention Center is on the National Register of Historic Places.

In 1897, the site of the Prime Osborn opened as Flagler Depot, a train station built by railroad magnate, Henry Flagler, handling as many as 92 trains a day. As the station got busier, the railroad companies were in need of a larger terminal and the Jacksonville Terminal was built.
