Today, several projects aiming to revitalize the town are under way.

The Willimantic Whitewater Partnership plans to reclaim the town's riverfront by developing a whitewater park and research facility.

Some of the town's distressed factory buildings have been turned into residential space for artists by Artspace.

Efforts to attract high-tech businesses to the area have turned other former factory buildings into space for small technology startups.
