The long-promised, Hispanic-themed shopping center La Marketa might need to become more diversified in its mix of shops and will require public incentives to become reality.
“There’s no disagreement about what needs to be done,” developer Larry Glazer said Monday. “It just needs to be done.”
La Marketa has been in the planning stages since at least the 1980s, the centerpiece of North Clinton Avenue improvements meant to improve safety and encourage investment. Officials announced plans in March 2007 to retool the project to make it work financially. That those discussions still are ongoing was a point of frustration during City Council budget hearings on Monday.”*
