In answer to some questions that may be asked by students or staff of the University of Connecticut, Eastern Connecticut State University, and / or Quinebaug Valley Community College, as well as other curious people, Willimantic is not just the frog bridge town.  It is one of the four communities that comprise the municipality of Windham.  The four are the villages of Windham Center, North Windham, and South Windham and the city of Willimantic.  Also famous for the phrase “Romantic Willimantic,” Willimantic community members, activists, supporters, and leaders have embraced the euphonious and poetic sound of the phrase and turned it into a celebration of the community.

The real estate company that Peter Leeds works for, CG Real Estate, is a fast-growing independent real estate company, with offices in North Windham, Danielson, Salem, and East Berlin.  CG Real Estate is one of Connecticut’s most successful short sale experts.  CG Real Estate agents also are expert in assisting students or staff of the University of Connecticut, Eastern Connecticut State University, and / or Quinebaug Valley Community College with their home sale or purchase or finding just the right rental to suit their needs.
