ELLINGTON, CT — After a period of dormancy, today Ellington-Somers Patch revives the popular Visions For Vacancies column, in which we highlight a vacant commercial property and ask readers to tell us what they think would be the best use for it.

Forget what zone it's in, ignore setback regulations, dump lot coverage rules and all the other zoning jargon that puts most people to sleep. If you had your way, what would you like to see there? What would be the best use for the community?

Today we are featuring a 4,200 square-foot rental space in the Meadowview Plaza on Route 83 in Ellington. The site is located between Subway and American Karate.
