Last year, a Globe story said the $150 million plan calls for street-level shops, a second-floor supermarket, a parking garage, and six to eight floors of apartments.


One Canal had been planned to include a Stop & Shop, Trinity Financial said.


But yesterday, the company reported that it had been informed by Stop & Shop that the supermarket chain “is now concentrating on occupying another site in the neighborhood.’’


Trinity Financial said it is continuing efforts to secure a supermarket operator for its project.
