What Business Would You Like to See Here?

The 205 Burrill Street storefront was last occupied by the Cup N Board specialty food store which closed in 2011.

  What should go here at 205 Burrill St.? It's in earshot and view of the Swampscott Train Station and next door to the China Green restaurant. We want to know what kind of business you would like to see move to this location? The last business here was The Cup N Board coffee and specialty food shop. Ten months after opening its door to commuters and customers, The Cup N Board closed, unable to weather the weak economy and faced with limited parking.  Post your comments in the section below.

What Should Go Here?

It's been almost a year since the historic Gateway Building burned.

  We had a poll earlier on the question, but now we are asking for your comments on businesses you would like to see in the new building once it sprouts on the vacant Gateway lot at Humphrey and Redington? Construction has yet to start but an owner, Jayne Orloff-Carey, said in December that it could start any time. The new single-story property will be able to accommodate six businesses of 600 to 800 square feet each, though units could be combined if that is what tenants want, she said. Most of the owners' former commercial tenants have relocated nearby and plan to stay in their new locations. For our new What Should Go Here? column, we want to know the kind of business you think should move to this location? Write your thought in the …
