Three of the four hotel proposals conform to the existing zoning's height limit (4 stories, 50 feet).
Saracen proposes a 6 story, 60 foot building. That won't outright disqualify it, but it's a small strike against it. It would become the tallest building in the Square if built.
I don't like the idea of moving the farmers' market into a parking garage. Much better to find another nearby surface parking lot to put it on. I've been to the Medford Winter Farmers' Market in the Hyatt hotel garage, and it's dreary and dismal.
