The new Downtown Revitalization Plan as presented would increase the downtown capacity from its current 65,000 square feet to approximately 485,000 square feet and includes a re-opening of the old Market Street in Rockville and possible daylighting of the Hockanum River. More info to come.The Town Council has also approved a federal grant for a transportation hub at 375 Hartford Turnpike, also known as the "Teen Center." The hub will be a benefit to parents dropping off their kids at day care and will add sidewalks for pedestrians to use for the nearby Rails to Trails. Critics say this spot was not idea and may not spur economic development.
