The supermarket chain purchased the site with the intention of building an 83,000-sf superstore with offices on a second level. Some aldermen want to rezone the site in order to reduce the size of the store and require a mixed-use project. The site has private residences on two of its sides and a park on the third.
But Mayor Gay reportedly does not support any zoning changes to the site. Her office did not return calls by presstime, but she has been quoted as saying that Stop & Shop has agreed to develop a mixed-use project and to provide community benefits.
