Fairhope, Alabama
TO BECOME 'PIER STREET MARKET'
The city council unanimously approved the site plan for a three story multi-use (commercial/residential) building where the former Bay Break Grocery building now stands (corner Mobile and Pier Streets); the Planning Commission approved the plan as well earlier in the year.
Constructed mostly of clay city tile, many locals remember it as 'Monk Green's' store.
The street sign is to remain as homage to the old structure by owner Wise Properties, LLC.
CITY STILL LACKS PRESERVATION INCENTIVES
The city currently has no official preservation incentives in place even though the historic preservation committee has made numerous proposals over the years (click).
All current city leaders oppose the committee's latest proposal as well.
