The Five-&-Dime was purchased by Fiddleheads in Dover, NH (upscale vittles store)
The building that had Alton Video in it needs repairs and has a sign that reads something like this: FOR RENT. TENENT TO MAKE REPAIRS. It was on the rental market BEFORE the economy tanked.
Ditto for the laundromat - it was on the market a while back now...
Tire Warehouse was purchased by Alton Motor Sports and is a spare storage/garage space for them.
The empty space next to Cranberry's (yes, there was a thrift store there) is for rent but considering the business Cranberry's does, I don't see that being available for long.
Several new business, such as a wine and cheese shop, will be opening. We have a new cigar store at the bay...
All in all... it could certainly be worse but not much different than what we'd seen before things went bad in the economy...
