About

 

In an age not long past, people lived in communities that connected them to the fabric of life. Where they worked, learned, and relaxed — and where they shopped and went to dine — all were within short distances of their homes. Community and connection were strengthened by the intimacy of commerce set forth by the traditional marketplace.

We live in an age where the mall has replaced the commons and where buying a shirt or an exclusive piece of jewelry can be transacted in a virtual environment devoid of personal contact. In The Winthrop Traditional Marketplace, commerce is knit in the bond of community. The social aspects of commerce take precedence. Relationships become paramount over the ordinary and usual course of business.

A sense of place permeates the Winthrop public market, offering an enticing mix of businesses catering to essential services and needs and to uncommon finds and experiences.
