A concept to develop a restaurant row that spills out onto a Midtown Sacramento alley has frozen in its tracks. Not someone who gives up easily, developer Aaron Zeff took a step toward the alley's future use by launching a new Saturday morning event, the Midtown Bazaar, last weekend. Zeff has been talking with city officials and prospective restaurant owners about creating an upscale culinary corridor on a Midtown alley near Memorial Auditorium. But that plan — one of three pilot alley projects announced last August — is not moving forward because financing and tenants are not yet available, Zeff said. "Restaurant row is on a holding pattern, like most other retail businesses," he said.
