Three addresses are vacant at this section of South Street.
The citizens of Jamaica Plain have spoken: they want a variety of businesses to line the main commercial sectors of the neighborhood. When Jamaica Plain Patch published a photo of a section of South Street with three vacant storefronts, the public responded with ideas on what should move into the space: Nicole Pittman said: "Peace o' Pie!! (Vegan pizza place!)" Eddie G. said: "I would love to see a taco place (we need one of those), coffee shop or a even a wine and cheese shop. But please just like the above JP residents and posters stated, NO MORE SALONS!" Lindsay LeClair said: "It would be nice to have a gluten free bakery or a non-vintage consignment store." If it were up to you, what would you place at the spaces between 166 and 170 …

Three addresses are vacant at this section of South Street.
Next to J.P. Variety Store there are three vacant spaces which used to be local businesses. The vacancies are at 166, 168 and 170 South St. At least one of the businesses used to be a hair salon – with a sign depicting the face of Scarlett Johansson – another was once a cleaners. Based on previous articles which posed the same question, many wanted a new Italian restaurant, a butchery or a new clothing store But what businesses would be perfect to round out this particular commercial block on South Street near Forest Hills?

There’s Canto 6 and the local police station, but a huge space is vacant in this high foot-traffic area of Jamaica Plain.
There is a large vacant space at the southwest corner of Green and Washington streets in Egleston Square. There are a few vacancies in this section of Jamaica Plain, but none as large and versastile as this one. With the E-13 Police Station and the popular Canto 6 café at this intersection and a lot of foot traffic in the area, what business would you like to see pop up at this location? Leave your opinion in the comments.

The site is for lease…for now.
On Washington Street, next to a coffee shop and across from the Forest Hills MBTA station sits a space that used to be a Re/Max real estate office. This neighborhood, and specifically this strip, is lined with eateries of late –Fazenda, Tonic, Dogwood, East Ocean and Forest Hills Pizza are all concentrated right there. With ample parking in the area, a major transportation hub and the Casey Arborway project destined to revamp the area entirely, what would you like to see be put in at this location in the future? Leave your opinion in the comments.
