I'm not sure the lot is physically big enough to support a Market Basket with a huge parking lot for all their loyal customers.
Maybe a Burger King or Wendy's to offer some competition to Mickey D's, lol.
In my opinion the lot location would be ideal for a decent, modern motel chain or a large gas station (assuming it is zoned retail).
Who knows when or if the Riverview Motel will ever open again. The owner seems to have been working on it for 5 or 6 years. Not sure what the hold up is other than likely trying to do all the work himself (and years of lost income).
It will be interesting to see what others think may succeed in that particular location......
