Signs that the economy is turning around in Northwest Connecticut

At lunch today with several folks who have a pretty good pulse on the business community in Northwest Connecticut, the consensus was that there are definite signs of a pickup in the local economy.
Job creation will have to precede any significant rebound in real estate and other areas, they said, and several local manufacturers have started hiring again.
One sign of an impending or in-progress recovery is that local temp agencies have started to get busy again. That could mean that employers are easing back into job creation, with the next step being addition of permanent staff jobs.
At The Register Citizen, we have seen an encouraging uptick in help wanted advertising.
