This contest is truly a celebration of the entrepreneurial spirit.”

Utilizing the portfolio’s available spaces is something AGW has become known for since this New York-based company swept into town in November of 2019. OnWashington is AGW’s marketing arm for Washington Street Historic District, which includes a web site, social media platforms @onwashingtonst, and an on-going agenda that focuses on supporting its tenants, enhancing the block, and attracting new tenants to open their business on Washington Street.
In September of 2020, AGW built and launched Norwalk To-Go, a custom take-out and delivery platform designed to assist their restaurant tenants with their enhanced take-out and delivery portion of their businesses. The program is fully funded by AGW so its restaurant tenants no longer need to absorb the 30% fee that third party delivery companies gouge them with. Restaurants keep 100% of their sales! Norwalk To-Go has reached over $65,000 in sales since launching.
To date, AGW and OnWashington have produced such high-profile community events, including; Art OnWashington which filled Washington Street Historic District storefronts with an eclectic collection of thought-provoking art; the 2020 SoNo Arts Festival “Gallery Walk”, setting up 8 gallery locations on Washington Street during September and October; and the SoNo Holiday Market, transforming 8 locations into festive gift shops and filling the street with live holiday music.
“Our goal is to establish Washington Street Historic District as a premier destination to live, work, and play, “says Adam Greenbaum, Managing Partner, AGW SONO Partners, “To accomplish this, the success of our tenants is vital. Support comes in many forms and we are committed to finding creative ways to enhance Washington Street Historic District.”
