New Plan For Old Grocery Market

Fairhope, Alabama


New building planned



March planning commission

Snow cone trailer now.


NEW PIER STREET MARKET PLACE DEVELOPMENT

Snow cones are currently being sold at the old Bay Break Grocery on South Mobile Street at Pier Avenue; but the building will eventually be torn down and replaced with a 3-story multi-use structure (approved during the March Planning Commission meeting).

Initially described as only two stories, the project changed to three when the final site plan was approved. The existing sign is to be saved though, if possible.

Wise Properties LLC. is the listed owner; it is zoned B3b.

Partially constructed using Clay City tile, many locals remember the place a Mont (or Monk?) Green's.

The city council still needs to approve this site plan.

Three stories??? Oh boy. The sky is the limit.
There a small patch of grass left to the south of the Legion. I'm sure some developer can figure out how to squeeze a 16,000 sqft multi-family into that one too.

WELL isn't this interesting.Not long after Hurricane Katrina this lot was deemed UN-BUILD ABLE,or was reduced to a half lot.Now that a large developer has ownership it is quite amazing how the planning and zoning commission is OKing this protect. We though the previous administration was in issue,really?These left overs from that are racking in the accolades in this all over town.
