A huge parking lot @ International Village is going up for sale. I doubt this property will sit empty for long.

The city is poised to sell a downtown parking lot to the highest bidder rather than turn it over to non-profit homebuilders — but sale proceeds are expected to help create “many more affordable housing units” elsewhere.
The nearly half-acre parking lot at 171 Main St. E. was one of six municipal properties pitched for sale or redevelopment last year to support building more affordable units amid a housing and homelessness crisis.
