Arlington Senior Citizens Center
The Arlington Senior Citizens Center is owned and operated by the City of Jacksonville as a service to the citizens of the Arlington area. The center is available for rental on weekends (see details below). The center's address is on Rogero Road, however, it is a bit tricky because most people think that Rogero starts/ends at the traffic light at the east-west part of Arlington Road; Rogero (and the Senior Citizens Center) is also south of the east-west part of Arlington Road, and slightly west of the north-south part of Arlington Road (see map links below). Going south, turn right onto Groveland Road. You can also get on that part of Rogero from the service road along Arlington Expressway. Because Arlington Road has a center median, it is a bit tricky if you are traveling north on Arlington Road. From the map links, you can see exactly where the Senior Center is located and get specific turn-by-turn directions to get there.
