The Weirs has deteriorated because investors do not see it as a viable area to invest in new businesses.
Frankly, the old school notion of an arcade and a dance pavilion surrounded with kitschy shops doesn't cut it in the New Millenium.
Folks, particularly kids, have other options for entertainment, such as video games.
Back in the day, the Weirs was "it."
Not any more.
I've no solution, only a suggestion: hello, amusement park!
"Six Flags over Winnie," anyone?
Add a casino.
That would draw everybody.
Otherwise, it's just a slow decline to oblivion, as things change.
