....empty stores?

Thought I'd start a thread on lakes region empty stores.

Some Meredith empties:

The very large retail space between Rite Aid and the sporting goods store whose name I cannot remember. Available since November 2008 when first constructed; never rented, never occupied.

The space formerly occupied by the very accomplished Tape Escape ...

The empty building adjacent to the Meredith roundabout, formerly occupied by The Practice Room. By the way, The Practice Room, which is a yoga studio, successfully moved to a nearby spot, the old original Meredith Harley-Davidson location. May that old HD force be with them......vvvrooommm---budda-budda....Oooom!

The undeveloped land space, formerly occupied by Pemi Glass opposite the roundabout....Pemi moved to a better location.

Burlwood Antiques: That large red barn building all loaded up with antiques & dealers & history & antiques fans is seemingly gonzo for good-zo. Will Burlwood ever return?

Abondante Ristorante & Bakery.....after 12 years....will definately miss the over-sized plate of chicken parmisiano & pasta.... & b&w half moons from the bake shoppe....

The vacant land space formerly Dave's Dockside, across from Mobil Gas... Dockside moved to a better location across town.

The large empty retail space, formerly Jackson-Star super market...continues indefinately to be a large empty space.

The empty retail space formerly NH state liquor store which has moved to a nearby larger space....have to wonder why state liquor didn't move in next to Rite Aid...

Did I miss anything?

Oh yes, and last but certainly not the least; the vacant office building high up on Sunset Hill attached to the cell phone tower that was home to the infamous Financial Resources Mortgage 'Ponzi' business, which is alleged to have robbed and defrauded $80-100-million from some very unhappy & very angry investors & borrowers as they now learn all about bankruptcy, lawyers, and clawbacks. Could be described as a group of well-to-do investors, attracted by a seemingly safe 15% annual return, that got turned into a chain gang of angry folks wondering what the heck happened and where's their money?
.......

What's the outlook for empty retail spaces in your town? How's business and how's the empty retail spaces?
