weirs beach water slide development

Terrible vision. I agree if this is the corner stone of the new Weirs the place is doomed. The advice that the owner should visit Meredith is spot on. Hopefully, the local politicians can break their string of overall poor stewardship and push this project in the proper direction.

Well I dunno I wouldn't call the drawing "butt ugly" maybe it doesn't belong on that corner I agree. I think it's fine looking just not where it's proposed...

I think the concept is fantastic and a huge improvement over what it will replace. I doubt that the design shown in this plan would be close to what it will actually end up being.
The Weirs can stand some upgrading and modernization to entice businesses to be able to remain open year round. And, two good year round restaurants so close together just might help to generate more traffic in the area in the off season.

and so it begins, I want change I want change, but then this is not the change I want.

This is primary stage and I am sure that the design will change at things go, but lets hope this is the start of the revitalization. Having a new retail building there with parking to boot, and then the other owners looking at their old decrepit falling down buildings, and their retailers maybe looking to trade up, could be on to something here. I like the charm of the old buildings but the need a major facelift and upgrade in tenants. Not a bad spot to be 365 days a years for a business with the views and the infrastructure. The first tenants need to be self-sustaining for the first off season though. If you build it they will come......

I like this new owner already and he should be encouraged, not discouraged.

Looks just like the Shangerla (sp) also known as the Brickyard Mt. inn

I sure hope they do a complete redesign of the docks while they are at it... I don't go there any more because of the wave action and the reality of getting stuck inside as they are spaced too close together.
