Visions For Vacancies: Windsor Locks

WINDSOR LOCKS, CT — It's time for our latest 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.

If you had your way, what would you like to see there? What would be the best use for the community?

Remember, some of the spaces available are limited in size. For example, it's not possible to fit a Trader Joe's into a 350 square foot office unit.

Today we are featuring the northernmost unit in the Waterside Village plaza on Main Street. Measuring 975 square feet, the spot recently housed Central Valley Insurance Associates.

About this column: In featuring available commercial spaces in Windsor Locks and East Windsor, we aim to help residents take a proactive role in planning and building their community. Know of an available building we should highlight? Tell us in the comments below, or e-mail tim.jensen@patch.com.
