If I was a real estate developer with unlimited resources and the investment would pay off I would buy up everything in the whole strip and start over. I guess I was not clear. Its not just the pier that East Coast Flight craft purchased, its the whole strip, its the docks. Unless the docks are reconfigured Weirs will NEVER attract boat traffic, look at Meredith, look at Wolfboro. The side of the street opposite the water with arcades etc needs to be changed. There is a reason why Meredith and Wolfboro have boats waiting to dock and Weirs in its present form will never have that no matter how much money East Coast Flight Craft invests in the pier. Unless there are major changes besides sprucing up the existing structures we will be having the same discussion about what can be done to attract more visitors to Weirs.

I would imagine historical issues come into play with a property like this so demolition and starting over is probably not an option.

Give East Coast a chance to continue with their improvement plan, yes something better can be done with the arcade but you will never be able to develop the homes owned by the NH Veterans, they are designated historical homes.
