National chain retailers both in the Quincy Mall and elsewhere along Broadway serve as a major draw for the local economy, and the last decade has seen development bringing the city limits all the way to the interstate. Ongoing and planned projects will expand the city to the north, northeast, and east, attracting further attention from the highway.
