Question of the Day: Stores Most Wanted at West End Vacancies?
Weigh in with your thoughts on this issue.

The West End Neighbors Civic Association took a survey in May that asked residents to name what businesses they would like to see fill vacant storefronts in the West End business district. The civic group collected several hundred responses and found the following top five business category suggestions represented nearly 50 percent of all votes:
1. Bakery (22%)
2. Gourmet Deli (8%)
3. Produce Market (7%)
4. Book Store (6%)
5. Bank (5%)
Other suggestions included family apparel store, organic food market and gym/yoga studio.
