From Pow to Wow at Wayland Square

For years, the venerable Wayland Toy Store occupied the large space at the heart of the square on the corner of Wayland and Medway. Most recently it housed the Pow! Science store. Then suddenly it was empty. But as of this month, there is good news. Dixon & McAllister, a casual clothing retailer for men and women based in Newport, has just opened up in this very visible location. With the women’s retailer F. Bianco relocating from Garden City soon to Angell Street, the Square has gone full circle to virtually fully occupied. Good news all around.
