My thought was incorrect regarding the Braza building. The RDA already owns that. One paragraph from the article states "Sources close to the project say there may be some sticking points regarding properties the RDA needs to maximize the walkway and plaza." So I wonder if they want a second building adjacent to Braza, to make it a wider walkway. I don't think they need too, and I would really hate to lose that remodeled residence, and retail space. Plus the county's assessed value of the building south of Braza is at $1.3 million. The Eat-A-Burger parcel is valued by the County at $290k so the amount they are wanting to approve would cover that, even for a greedy land banker. Considering the RDA owns the two parcels to the North, Eat-A-Burger might be a good use of that money.
