Charles §. Andrews, who for many years conducted a small store on Stanley street near the site of the present State Normal school, when that district was considered to be the city's outskirts and the store was regarded as serving the rural district of New Britain, has petitioned for a permit to reconstruct the bullding and re-open the stere, but has found that zoning make this impossible. The store has not been in opera- tion in four years, but under the terms of a lease drawn when it was occupied by Kolodney Brothers, that firm has been required to pay rent until very recently. The zening map places this district in a residence zone and since the store has not been used in more than one year, it cannot now be re-opened. In anticipation of a move to ce- cure a special exception from the board of adjustment, owners of ad- joining properties have circulated a petition of protest.
