AMHERST — WS Development has a picture on its website of a bustling shopping plaza in Amherst with two rows of shops lining a packed parking lot. The Massachusetts-based developer calls it a “highly visible retail destination” that hosts the region’s only Whole Foods.

The reality at the former Northtown Plaza is far different.

While Whole Foods is under construction, the grocery store won’t open until sometime this summer.
