According to Amy Frigulietti, Wellesley’s Assistant Executive Director, the city has been addressing roadblocks to filling empty storefronts inside its jurisdiction, similar to licensing and permitting. “We’re thrilled that momentum from the storefront art project the Town supported final year is continuing this spring, with the Wellesley Society of Artists exhibit at Webster Bank. Overall we be okay with the current curiosity in our industrial districts, and the Town will see several new retailers and restaurants transferring into our vacant storefronts soon,” she said. In Boston, Roya’s shoppers have been mostly business people who commuted to the workplace 5 days per week.
