Locally owned clothing store. Or, Thrift Shop.

Adding a Community Center would allow many of the proposed ideas to flourish. A meeting place such as a vibrant community center attracts people to downtown. Services (much needed) and events could be offered through the center. Creates an opportunity for intergenerational involvement. Is a vehicle for cultural identity. Hopefully built in safe, green space (to encourage outside activity).

small independent business, cafes with outdoor seating. I don't know if this is the right area, but I would also like to see the Easthampton Co-op or Trader Joe's.

improved store fronts, fewer industrial and more small businesses

Question

Suggestion
Ramaj circle needs to be included, and fiber needs to be run to Ramaj circle.
Ramaj should be the focus, could make a nice area of many types of businesses

Would love to see new/updated facades/storefronts. Commercial stores on bottom and residential units on 2nd floor to bring in the foot traffic that is needed to maintain something like this

Suggestion
Need to find out how to build around the Massdep Contamination plume. The buildings are old and not suited for success. Need to tear them down, redesign the area, with the parking lot and road over the dry cleaning chemical plume. New building built not over the plume.

Suggestion
For this all to work, the Games and Lanes area absolutely needs to have something done with it.

mchase Dec 16 2025 at 10:16AM on page 1

a cafe with a space for art and music. Or a store like a trader joes.

I'd love to see a coffee shop (even though I don't drink coffee lol) and maybe a small market. Possibly even a fun breakfast place

Suggestion
Clean up the old games n lanes property. That area being right in the middle looks terrible.

Edward P Borgatti Dec 16 2025 at 10:12AM on page 1

Coffee shop, breakfast more cafe/bar type places. Keeping in mind we need daytime walking traffic to help make this successful

Barbara Bard Dec 16 2025 at 10:11AM on page 1

Suggestion
Maybe a grant for businesses to improve the front of their building/businesses to make it look nicer and more inviting.

Edward P Borgatti Dec 16 2025 at 10:11AM on page 1

updated store fronts, refurbish to give more eye appeal

jbonfiglio@agawam.ma.us Dec 16 2025 at 10:10AM on page 1

I would love to see updated facades on the businesses to create a cohesive look on Walnut Street Ext. I'd love to see it become a walkable area with outdoor cafes
