About This Event
The Arlington Mod & More Home Tour & Symposium offers a fun and informative view into the historic architecture of Arlington, showcasing some of Jacksonville’s most iconic Mid-Century Modern structures.
The event is presented by the Northeast Florida Association of Realtors and benefits Old Arlington, Inc. (OAI). Founded in 1993, OAI is committed to the preservation and revitalization of Arlington, one of Jacksonville’s most historically significant communities.
Guests will have the opportunity to tour homes from quirky to fabulous, quaint beauties to riverfront estates. Now enjoying a resurgence in popularity, especially among younger homeowners, Mid-Century Modern architecture became popular after WWII through the 1970s. This minimalistic, functional style features open floor plans, clean lines, muted curves, large windows, and indoor-outdoor living spaces. Arlington, Jacksonville’s fastest-growing area after the construction of the Mathews Bridge in 1953, boasts an impressive concentration of Mid-Century Modern architecture.
The event kicks off with a Symposium on Saturday, October 12 at 9 a.m. The tour is Saturday, October 12, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Sunday, October 13, from 12 p.m. to 4 p.m. Tickets are $25 (fees additional).
