What business, service or restaurant would you like to see as a new addition to the local scene?

Samantha Linton, 29, Suffolk

“Target. I love shopping at Target, but right now I have to drive all the way to Chesapeake. I would also really like a movie theater on this side of Suffolk, or anything else for the kids. I’d like for there to be more stuff for the kids to do.”

Lisa Barkema, 50, Suffolk

“A Barnes & Noble. It’s got a place to sit and meet with people, and it has books and other merchandise that Suffolk needs. It would also be nice if we had a movie theater in the downtown area and a city center area with nicer restaurants.”

Joanne Ashby, 70, Suffolk

“Something that me and my husband have wanted in Suffolk for a while is a delicious yogurt shop that they have at the beach: TCBY. The yogurt is really out of this world, and it would be so nice if Suffolk had one.”

Bill Eger, 44, Suffolk

“I’d like more traditional retail shops. I’ve worked in retail for 20 years. You want to make downtown Suffolk a destination where you can find merchandise that doesn’t have a location in Chesapeake or Norfolk. You want to have a niche market that is exclusive to Suffolk.”
