Workshops

"Scott Day was really helpful because [he] commented on the [store's] name and about how it should convey a more fun, colorful, kid sound. He also talked about what we could do to change our windows and that we shouldn't have all of our bestsellers right as you walk in. As a result, sales have gone up in the last few months, especially for toys and books." Robin Hendrix Co-Owner Totally Kids, Winstead CT

Managing Parking and Traffic

Auto circulation and parking lots impact much of the way downtown functions.  This visit is typically a minimum of one day and is tailored to the specific needs of the community.  This technical assistance visit can help local planning officials, business representatives, property owners, and residents work together to insure that the goals of each group are met and downtown maintains its sense of place.
