At the January 16th Castroville Dreamin' workshop, one table covered this topic. Three groups discussed this topic throughout the day. The questions below seek to continue this community dialogue. Add your thoughts, through the lens of Spaces and Places in Castroville, by Sunday March 17th.

Where could tiny retail fit in Castroville?

Small cafe/restaurant spaces can enliven a park or plaza while offering a new business the opportunity to start small with only a limited initial investment. It could be a place to stop and enjoy a quick coffee or ice cream, or it could be a small retail business.
Are there things you like about this idea or the look of these? What would make something like this fit in Castroville: Alsatian design? Small enough to tuck into Houston Square and not block any views of St Louis Cathedral? Big enough to include a Community News pinboard? Where would you envision a small business like this in Castroville? Maybe near Downtown, at the regional park, next to the library, or someplace else?

Do you have other ideas that would make Castroville even more family-friendly?

Focus funds and resources on infrastructure improvements and upgrades. Facilitate new small buisness ventures in areas of town that allow.

It's a small town and very family friendly - we do not need developers to improve this.
