Thread City Development offers this seasonal Look Book, which reflects our unadorned, unpolished, and unairbrushed view of Main Street, Willimantic. The Look Book depicts every-day, ordinary life, and shares a visual narrative of what makes downtown Willimantic the welcoming community and special place it is. We hope our rather extraordinary ordinariness makes you take notice. As Thornton Wilder, the author of Our Town, implied, given a chance to reflect upon – and even relive chapters from our lives – we should focus on the everyday things, because that’s where magic lies.
