The African American neighborhood centered on West 45th St. and Moncrief Road in Jacksonville was an enclave of segregation on the outskirts of the city established in the late nineteenth century. The Two Spot, pictured here in the 1940s, hosted numerous jazz bands and social events. Home to a large dance floor, bar, soda fountain, racetrack, cabins, and other amenities, the Two Spot provided the residents of the 45th & Moncrief neighborhood with a unique social space ideal for entertainment and community-building. A series of photographs in the Florida Archives offer a remarkable look inside this sprawling 1940s entertainment complex.
