Buildings on the north side of Overton Square got a 60-day reprieve Wednesday night.
Fisher Capital planned to ask the Memphis City Council for approval to demolish the buildings but, after a discussion with members of Memphis Heritage, Save Overton Square, and other community groups, decided to postpone the request for 60 days.
For those who want to see the buildings saved, however, it might not be enough.
“We are to the point that we could not make redevelopment of those buildings work,” said Fisher Capital’s Tom Lowe.
