Howland Plaza is a small shopping center featuring several businesses. It includes an excellent Italian restaurant and pizza place with attentive staff. There is a Giant Eagle supermarket, a tanning salon, and shops for hair and nails. One store offers fresh dipped chocolate strawberries, fudge, and other chocolates. Another shop sells cards, candy, gifts, and collectables. However, the plaza is noted by some as needing an update, with comments that parts appear run down, dated, or in need of revitalization.
