You're right: The Market will determine what's here and what's gone away.
IMHO, "less is more" in the Lakes Region, anyway.
That said, I'd like to see a boat anchored in Wolfeboro Bay with the name "Starbucks" on its transom.
Drive-through fashion, it would sell boutique coffees and Shane's (of Maine) ice cream by the pint.

Transactions would be conducted by means of a basket passed by boathook.
