Tell us what business you would like to see open next year.
We asked readers what they'd like to see fill various open spaces in Canton in 2012. Now, with 2013 having arrived, we're wondering what businesses would you like to see open in town this year. From the Old KFC Building to the old Strand Jewelers space to a vacant store front on Washington Street to what restaurant you think is missing in Canton, there are plenty of opportunities for new establishments in Canton in the new year. Tell us, what businesses would you like to see open in 2013? Where should those businesses go? Let us know in the comments section below.

What do you think should fill a space once used by KFC and A&W Root Beer?
As you pass by through Cobbs Corner, you may recall there used to be a Kenucky Fried Chicken (KFC) and an A&W Root Beer restaurant at 120 Sharon St., where Canton, Sharon and Stoughton intersect. But the building, which includes a drive-through, has been vacant for some time. Now, with a new year right around the corner, if you had your choice, what would you use the building for? Another restaurant? A book store? Or perhaps a new independently-owned coffee shop? Let us know in the comments section below with your thoughts.

If you had your way, what would you put in the vacant storefront?
Through Visions for Vacancies, you can have your say and sound off on what a vacant business property in Canton should become before plans are drawn.

Canton is definitely missing a seafood restaurant (even just take-out) with a storefront to buy fresh seafood. It would be great if it was stocked with fish caught my local fisherman to help out the small business owners. more ›
