Development of a highly anticipated downtown Phoenix grocery store could receive a major boost Wednesday, if the City Council approves a package of financial incentives worth millions for the project.
Under the proposal, RED Development would build an “urban” Fry’s grocery store as part of a high-rise apartment, office and retail project. Phoenix would provide the company $18.3 million in financial incentives as well as a long-term lease-to-purchase agreement for the city-owned land between Washington and Jefferson streets and First and Second streets.
