No Market Basket

JADAQ · 06-11-2017, 10:34 PM

The building looks awesome now that they've finished up. I wish all the businesses in there well and hope they do good. Looks like a couple vacant spots to fill.

They also tore up that wretched parking lot and did a new base with fresh tar! Looks awesome!!

Well, well, well, well, ..... and my, my, my, my, my ....... so, how's about this report in the August 7, Conway Daily Sun .... which reports that

the old 'Tennis Anyone' location, some outdoor tennis courts or something on McMillan Rd in North Conway will soon be serving up a new 69,845 square foot Market Basket store. This location is within one mile of a Hannaford's, Walmart, and Shaw's.

Sound's like it will be good-bye Tennis Anyone, and helloooo Market Basket ..... Conway Daily Sun article with four images, and yes, it will look like a Market Basket. So, what had been some closed and un-used outdoor tennis courts will get constructed into a Market Basket. That's a good bit of a switch! So, how come that don't happen in Gilford or Plymouth, and MB goes up north to North Conway? What has North Conway got?

December 22, 2013; say what, a Market Basket http://www.wearemarketbasket.com/gue...iver-27-years/ is coming to North Conway?

With a store in Tilton, next to Walmart, it looks like Market Basket chose to bypass the talked about Gilford airport strip location, or the talked about Plymouth-Tenney Mt Hgwy spot, and go with that super-duper, retail mecca ....... drum roll here ...... rat-a-tat-tat ...... North Conway, NH.

My guess is it draws shoppers from the nearby Maine towns of Fryeburg, Lovell, Sweden and Bridgton who would not have to drive up and down that miserable Route 16 to get to North Conway.

Here's something that will never happen. If NH Route 49 were extended about seven more miles, going up the existing Livermore Rd, a gated single lane, unpaved Forest Service Rd, through the White Mountain National Forest, to the Kancamangus Hgwy, then getting to North Conway would be much more direct.

Hellooooo Ryan Zinke ..... build a road?

The new North Conway store https.www.shopmarketbasket.com/store-locations will be the northern most location.

Just google 'NH Route 49 map' , go to satellite photos, and take a look-see at what would be a very build-able road to extend Rt 49 up to the Kancamangus Hgwy, and make a much more direct route to the new Market Basket in North Conway. Is this the missing link in the NH HgWy system or what? Is only seven miles, and there's already an old, unpaved Forest Service Rd for most of the distance. Seems like a no-brainer?

..... build a road!!!

North Conway is basically on the other side of the world from Waterville Valley and Plymouth, and it do't have to be like this ..... is time to build a road!

Been some discussion at the Plymouth Zoning Board meeting about Market Basket building a big store, about 1 1/2 mile off the exit, in the big empty flat spot next to the State liquor & wine store.

Proposal goes with an MB out back, and an Irving Gas up front, on Rt-25, next to the McDonald's.

Looks like the two sites have been ground graded/sifted/prep'ed by www.andrewsconst.com/news/, so maybe this MB will actually happen here in Plymouth?

It seems like a good spot ...... go-go-go ...... Market Basket!!!

Maybe ten short years ago, it was all a beautiful, large flat muddy field for growing corn for the cows ..... and look at it now ..... is this progress .... mooooo? Hungry black bears used to sneak in there at night, from the nearby river bank, to chomp on the yummy fresh native NH corn.

With Hannafords getting sold or merged or something from Delhaize-Belgium to Boston's Stop & Shop, more and more Boston pricing has come to Hannafords, already ........omg! ..... the Boston pricing is coming to Hannafords. Stop & Shop had to pay a big price to purchase/merge with Hannafords and the prices on soup have gone up.

Oh ...... dear Market Basket ..... please come to Plymouth and rescue all us poor folk ...... so's we don' gotta make that long long long monthly trip way down to that there Tilton Market Basket to load up the old buckboard or maybe that new jalopy.

They are planning on building a store in Plymouth in the fairly near future.

I work at the Tilton store and it's been said that the Plynouth location is due to open next year in 2019 but don't know the month.

“Sometime in 2019, we’ll open our brand new Market Basket in Plymouth,” said David McLean, operations manager for Market Basket.

The Plymouth store will be 69,000 square feet, 6,000 square-feet larger than the Tilton Market Basket, which opened in 2004. The Plymouth store will be located next to a state liquor store and a hotel, and in between two other Tenney Mountain Highway grocery stores, Hannaford and Wal-Mart
