Could well be there's enough space at the Weirs Pier to be home to the very high quality Cobalt Boats-East Coast Flightcraft, www.eastcoastflightcraft.com, plus a fitness center, a restaurant, plus some other businesses......all together in that one property that years ago was the Winnipesaukee Gardens....close to the boardwalk and the Mount Washington cruise ship tours.

And, as already mentioned, a fitness center will bring fitness customers in all year 'round.....all twelve months.....from 6-am to 6-pm....7-days/week.....364-days/year.....only closed for Christmas, December 25.

Picture this ..... you can step off your 32' Cobalt.....and in a fast two minutes.....be putting in some quality time on a rowing machine.....row-row-row-row....to make up for the exercise you never got on your motor boat.....with time to hit the gym .... and let's not overlook the www.anthonyspier.com spot for a restaurant.

Just picture this.....that restaurant location, high up on the Pier building, could be a good spot to be tossing out a single Cheez-it, Frisbee style, to some Canada goose that's never ever tasted a Cheez-it before ..... just imagine that!!!!
I don't see that as being the best use in revitalizing the area. It's a tourist area and that's where the big money is going to be. You're not going to make enough money on just the local full and part time residents. You have to draw people to the area that don't normally visit all the time. They are not going to visit because of a fitness center overlooking the water unless it's in a first class hotel.
