According to Mansfield Today, Mansfield/Storrs is a "ghost town." The newspaper is referring to the poor economic conditions stunting development near rt. 44 and rt. 195 due to serious water and sewer environmental issues stemming for 20 years. This area is seen as a gateway into the University of CT and its embarrassing having prospective students and their families drive past abandoned retail locations to get to the best public university in New England.
The Current abandoned locations include the former Two Steps Restaurant in the Holiday Mall, Bate's Garage, a pizza take out place, a liquor store, and the former Kathy Johns Restaurant. The Zenny's Restaurant is not abandoned but there are rarely any customers there, and its not a top choice for dining for Uconn students.
