Located in the Jacksonville neighborhood of LaVilla, the Prime Osborn contains two exhibition halls totaling 78,500 square feet (7,290 m2), several ballrooms and meetings rooms.

The first union station in the area was built by the Savannah, Florida and Western Railway (later part of the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad) in 1883.

The company was incorporated in 1894 by Henry Flagler, who owned the Florida East Coast Railway.

In 1982, a public-private partnership was started, led by former CSX chairman Prime F. Osborn III.

Jacksonville is a likely expansion point for the near future, as the FEC Railway already owns the tracks running there.
