Established in 1906, Murray Hill was developed after the Great Fire of 1901 devastated the downtown Jacksonville area. Murray Hill was a separate incorporated city until annexation to the City of Jacksonville in 1925. The Murray Hill Preservation Association is one of the oldest neighborhood associations in Florida and has continuously operated since 1932.
Today at our centennial members of the Murray Hill Preservation Association continue the tradition of working together to improve the community and make a great place to live, work and play.
welcomes you to our neighborhood.
