Click here for link to NPR story about a downtown grocery store in Syracuse, NY

Listening to this, it's more of an upscale version of what a downtown Publix in Lake Worth would be, but it does point out some of the obstacles that have prevented them from locating in downtown locations. It also identifies some trends that show people are moving into downtowns. Could that be the real issue for some on the dais? The prospect that this would attract people to live in and around our downtown that have disposable income? Is this another anti-gentrification fight?
