The family say the building has been struck by vehicles multiple times over the years: $75,000 worth.

After Ask Anthony featured the business owners, Joe Carlucci toured the property to see what kind of barriers can be installed to prevent future crashes.William and Vicky Marcal help run their family company called"Duval Finest Countertops" on Emerson Street near Downtown Jacksonville. They moved into the building five years ago.

The Marcal siblings said cars have crashed into the building about six times in the past two years. They weren't done repairing the building from the first accident, before another car crash just a few weeks ago. "The speeding is the main thing. They come so fast around the corner that they can't control that one little curve and it's causing them to hit the building each time," Vicky Marcal explained."I've already talked to traffic engineering. I've already talked to a public works director. They are very open to come out here with me next and look at what the site allows for," City Councilman Joe Carlucci said.

Carlucci represents District 5 where"Duval's Finest Countertops" is located. He toured the property to see what kind of barriers can be installed to prevent future crashes."That's a lot of money. That's a lot of disruption to a business. I'm just here to see if we can get solutions," Carlucci added.

The Marcal family's insurance and finances, and most importantly, their safety have been affected by the crashes. They're thankful to finally get help. WTLV would like to send you push notifications about the latest news and weather.
