You're looking for a camo painted 1 quart plastic container in a
small Jacksonville city park. Park hours are from Sunrise to 10pm.
Be sure to check out the benchmark (BC2039) in this park while
you're here.
The name of this park, Forestry Tower Park, derives from a former
fire lookout tower that rises 100 feet above the grounds. It was
called the Flagler Fire Tower (Henry Flagler’s FEC Railway line to
the beach passed adjacent to the property) after being moved to the
site by the Civilian Conservation Corps in 1938, and renamed the
Southside Fire Tower in 1959. The property also contained a
residence for the fire lookout (later mobile homes). But the
Division of Forestry closed the operation in 1992, and was
designated a local landmark in 1996. The city purchased the tract
for a park the next year.
