There will be a variety of restaurants and retail stores in the project with Wegman's and Kings. What would your choice be to fill one of those slots?
As reported on Burlington Patch this morning, NorthWest park will feature a Wegman's grocery store, a Kings bowling alley and an apartment building, but there will be a lot of free space for restaurants and retail locations. According to Nordblom's site, the development will be a 3,200,000 square foot "pedestrian-friendly, amenity-rich, vibrant mixed-use environment," in the area of 2nd, 3rd and 4th Avenues.

The Board of Selectmen voted to have a warrant for a request for 10 new liquor licenses for the January Town Meeting.
Burlington Town Meeting will take up a vote on whether the town should petition the state legislature for 10 additional liquor licenses during the January Town Meeting session. The warrant article was approved by the Burlington Board of Selectmen during the meeting Monday evening. The issue of a lack of licenses was first floated by the board in October. The basis of the move is that Town Administrator John Petrin told the board that there is interest among restaurant groups and the town's own planning department in acquiring new licenses for restaurants. The members of the board discussed the pros and cons of the additional licenses. The arguments in favor included that the licenses could be used for locally-owned small businesses, which…

Burlington currently has 25 liquor licenses that can be used by restaurants, Petrin said. Due to town bylaws all of the establishments must be geared towards food. Burlington has no traditional bars. There are also some licenses, like those for the restaurants in the upcoming NorthWest park, that are tied to specific locations. Petrin said acquiring addition licenses would have two …
