Destination Downtown

10/02/2026

The pumpkins have arrived at the Epiphany Church pumpkin patch! Come on down to downtown Walpole - across from the Town Common. Get yourself and the kids some pumpkins, then treat yourself to dinner at one of our fabulous restaurants for a drink and dinner, and enjoy the warm breezes on this early fall evening.

Destination Downtown did a story last year with insight about this beloved autumn tradition: https://walpoledowntown.org/articles/the-story-behind-the-epiphany-paris-pumpkin-patch

The long-overdue work to improve the CVS Plaza parking lot in downtown Walpole has begun! A crew was out there this morning removing the current hardtop in anticipation of leveling the earth and replacing it with a new layer of asphalt. The work, we were told, will be done in phases/sections so as to not completely close off all the parking that is needed for the businesses in that plaza parking lot.

We are hoping the owners of the CVS Plaza will continue the upgrades with some structural/cosmetic improvements that will make the property much more appealing and attractive.

Some photos here on the current asphalt work in the Plaza along with photos displaying some structural/cosmetic issues with the buildings.
