Some praise should be given to the improved retail offering in Ipswich over recent years with key retailers coming in and an improved Buttermarket. However there is still a long way to be a truly ambitions town rather than setting for 'it'll do'. I don't really see the need for the different quarters apart from town-centre planning policies, promoting development around the waterfront and seeking national well-paid employers move around Portman Road/Civic Drive area of town.
