I've always maintained that a record store could do really well in downtown. You don't need a big physical footprint, there's a good amount of discretionary money flying around town, and you'd have a sizeable market with all the UConn kids, young adults in downtown and harbor point, and teens. Of course you could also make one geared more towards older adults too.

Nearest one I know of is in Darien, but the nearest places I could vouch for would either be in Danbury, Bethel, or NYC.

Smart suggestion. Like you said, there's people willing to spend money on knick knacks, so a record store that sold players and a mix of old and new vinyls would be popular enough — at least for a few years.
