D&B is looking in Brookfield, if I remember a recent article about that. That Cadallic Country Bar place that was supposed to come in has stopped contruction and apparently the deal is off (according to the Business Journal). Boston Store downtown is now only 2 floors and probably wont last much longer. I could see Best Buy/Target in that space. Someone please get rid of the whig stores and fix up the block across the street.
