Probably run the gas station with Wildroot.
Talk to the hat, pal.
Office supply with an array of fountain pens & inks, accounting ledgers, typewriter ribbons, adding machine tape, stationery - both business & personal, probably a small printing press in the back. Oh yeah - gotta stock Moleskines!A jeweler and watch repair. Gunstore / smith / range. Tailors, hatters and a leatherworker / shoemaker. Shoeshine boy. Pool hall (WITH a capital "P" that rhymes with "T"Since drug store with lunch counter & soda fountain was mentioned, I'll add a diner to the list. Music store (sheet music, instruments) which would also probably sell records and radios. Haberdasher for the higher quality shirts & ties you couldn't find at the department store. Town square with a bandstand. Car dealer. Streetcar.
What else is "Vintageville" lacking?
Good call on the square with bandstand.
How about a lake on the outskirts for fishing and boating with a bathing beach and pavilion.
A law office for wills and such. Courthouse with JP and flagpole. A hoosegow for when Saturday night gets a bit out of hand. An air raid siren. A mortician / cemetary. A library (who's the Marion... librarian volunteer?) A monument to fallen heroes in the square.
Someplace will need to have a smoke-filled back room for various misdeeds like poker games or the playing of stag films.
A spooky old house on one of the streets and "haunted Indian caves" outside town.

A hotel, just across from the railroad station, with crusty local characters loafing around the lobby, an officious desk clerk, and a snappy-talking bellhop who knows all the local gossip.
The humblest citizen in all the land, when clad in the armor of a righteous cause, is stronger than all the hosts of error. -- William Jennings Bryan
Needs a couple restaurants, a florist, and some push-carts, I believe.
All travellers must visit wardrobe before departure. And that goes for you especially Trevor. You've created a hell of a stink back in 2010 wearing those bloody silly goggles of yours and that hoodie. - Smithy
Old fashioned streetlights to flicker on at dusk (and for swinging around while singing and dancing).
A wooden Indian in front of the 5 and Dime.
A 5 and Dime.
A tobacconist for cigarettes, cigars and pipes for those who indulge. A package store for the other big vice.
At least one newsstand.
If we get big enough, a streetcar.
