looks to be a appropriately scaled project

Winstanley Enterprises is proposing to build a shopping plaza,

town this year, given the economy, said Rob Rowlson, West Hartford's

acting director of community services.

The Stop & Shop would be 40,000 square feet, half the size of a super

store, and be on a scale that would mesh with the neighborhood,

pedestrian-friendly sidewalks. The parking lot would hold up to 500

Plus, Newington Center STILL needs a supermarket at Lowrey Place. I hope that the Elmwood S&S doesn't detract any store for there.
