What Should Replace Papa John's?

The former pizzeria is now vacant, so what do you want to see added to Caldwell's busy Bloomfield Avenue?

The Caldwells has lost a pizzeria and gained a vacant building on Bloomfield Avenue. 

It is time for another installment of Visions for Vacancies. This week, The Caldwells Patch asks: What should move to 455 Bloomfield Ave., the former Papa John's Pizzeria? 

All possibilities are on the table. We ask you to forget what zone it's in, ignore setback regulations, dump-lot coverage rules, and all the other zoning jargon that puts most people to sleep. If you had your way, what would you like to see there? What would be the best use for the community?

A "For Rent" sign now hangs in the building's storefront window, which sits at the corner of Bloomfield and Central avenues. The single-story building is located next to a cobbler and has on-street metered parking.  

What would you like to see move into the location? Another fro yo shop or pizzeria? A cafe? An Ethiopian restaurant? Let us know in the comment section below.
