Historic City Market

City of Raleigh wants to sell a portion of their city market properties (the parking lot). Rezone up to 12 stories with a stipulation that affordable housing should be included.

I don’t know how I feel about this. Seems like a bad plan. City Market should eventually be owned 100% by the city and expanded. This will just break it up further even if we gain some development quicker.

Rezone to 12 stories? Sure. Sell the land? No.
