City needs shops

I think the city missed the boat. We don’t need any more  condos,  apartments or restaurants.
What we need are stores to shop in.
What would be good is something like Derby Street Shoppes in Hingham.
Close down Hancock Street. You could have stores on both sides, and there would be plenty of parking in back.
