Housing advocates and San Jose neighborhood groups are pushing back against a proposed Chick-fil-A at the corner of Race and West San Carlos Streets, asserting the project does not fulfill the vision of an urban village while citing the fast food retailer’s past controversial donations to anti-LGBTQ organizations.
The developer has proposed demolishing the existing commercial building, which would displace businesses like Sharper Cuts and Taqueria Eduardo, and replace it with a one-story, 5,139-square-foot restaurant with an outdoor dining patio.
