Research What Jacksonville residents should know
Rain Dogs was the Five Points bar and live-music room at 1045 Park Street, Jacksonville, FL 32204. Google Places matches that name and address and marks the listing CLOSED_PERMANENTLY, with a historical snapshot of 4.5 from 500 reviews. This Stay Safe Jax page is that closed Park Street bar. It is not Fat Tuesday, not Alewife, and not Sun-Ray Cinema a block away. Public ratings on this page are stored snapshots, not live scores. Because the bar is permanently closed, Stay Safe Jax does not use the historical Google file as a headline. The score here is 0 from 0 reviews. Those numbers do not refresh when someone opens the page. A 4.5 from 500 reviews was an ordinary, well-liked neighborhood nightlife score while the room was open. The Florida Times-Union reported on November 4, 2024 that owner Christina Wagner said Rain Dogs would close after more than 11 years, with a last night on New Year’s Eve. She wrote that she had exhausted options and needed to do what was best for her family. News4Jax on January 1, 2025 covered the farewell New Year’s Eve party and treated the closing as a Five Points community change, not a safety crackdown. The Jacksonville Daily Record reported on September 1, 2026 that Fat Tuesday’s Five Points plans were moving through zoning for the former Rain Dogs at 1045 Park Street, with a kitchen-and-bar concept next door at 1043 Park Street. That is a proposed successor, not Rain Dogs. Stay Safe Jax does not attach a chain daiquiri brand’s ratings to this listing. Google’s closed card listed no wheelchair parking, entrance, restroom, or seating tags. Stay Safe Jax did not inspect the former room and does not treat missing tags on a closed bar as a scandal. There is no current sourced lawsuit or investigation in the facts used here. Stay Safe Jax leaves warning flags at 0. The listing stays active so residents can see the sourced last night and the later Fat Tuesday planning story. Stay Safe Jax does not add a company website. Five Points in 2026 is not the same bar row Rain Dogs left on New Year’s Eve 2024. Fat Tuesday’s zoning story is about a proposed tenant, not an open daiquiri club on this page. Stay Safe Jax keeps Rain Dogs listed so the sourced last night and the 1045 Park Street address stay attached to the right name. Do not use the historical 4.5 as a reason to show up after dark expecting a bartender. Walk the block only if you are checking a later public opening.
