The town of Windsor Locks has struck a deal with a national developer for the restoration of the historic train station on South Main Street, First Selectman J. Christopher Kervick said.
Although Kervick would not name the developer, he said the plan is for the town to lease the property on a long-term basis to the developer with the goal of transforming the building into a welcome center that features town history, a coffee shop, bistro, and a small-batch brewery.
The former train station has been out of service since the late 1970s. It is adjacent to the proposed new train station, which would be a stop on the Hartford Line connecting to Springfield and New Haven.
