New Whole Foods soon in Darien...
You may want to stay tuned on the proposed Whole Foods in Stamford. It's meeting resistance from folks in the Bull's Head neighborhood because it will be part of a large-scale mall with a monstrous 5-story parking garage. The developers want to demolish Lord & Taylor, replace it with a larger store, a 60,000-square-foot Whole Foods, *and* 50,000 square feet of additional retail space. Apparently, the project doesn't conform to zoning regulations because it is too large in scope for the site. Residents in the neighborhood don't like the idea of a mall in their back yard.
