I came across this proposal after seeing a link to a new public outcry against a proposed seven and a half storey hotel just across from Asheville's historic Basilica Cathedral.
The St Lawrence project would make for a breathtaking gateway into Asheville's downtown. With its central European plaza piazza, with old world style fountains, cafes, bistros, condos/residential apartments, and possibly even a small hotel, it makes for a much more attractive prospect than the mundane hotel.
I even see a mini roundabout in the southwest corner. The fancy ground stonework remind me of Paris and Nice. After having lived in Europe for the past three years, I can say this project is certainly welcomed and must be further explored by the council!
