Torrington Target:
Now offers Fresh Grocery
IF you happen to drop by your local Target on the way home from work, you will now be able to grab something fresh for dinner.

The Downtown Experience is one of the great things our city has to offer is... the slice of small town values that exists downtown. A place where you may know a merchant as a friend and gather with neighbors just for the sake of being together.

Local Stores - Closed Doors!
It is always sad to see your favorite place of business closing its doors for the last time. The Torrington community will miss these merchants as much as it will embrace those that replace them. But, if you are considering this as a sign of failure -- it is also important to understand these businesses are closing for various reasons -- that it wasn’t Torrington or just a bad economy. This may just be the natural flow of things in a city as large as our own. But, it is also a sign that our community needs to support our local businesses for them to survive.
- S&S Sweets at 38 Main St
- Brutus, a hot dog eatery at 238 Water St.
- Artwell Gallery at 45 Main St.
- Happy Dollar, a dollar store at 61 South Main St.
- Scents & Sensibility, a gift shop at 97 Main St.
