Preserving the History of the Lakes Region

nj2nh · 10-19-2007, 05:35 PM

Unfortunately, what I would like to see remain has already gone - the Alton Bay Pavilion, Bailey's in Wolfeboro, the Hansel and Gretel Shop in Mlevin Village, the original McGrath's in Alton Bay. I could go on and on.

I do agree that the lake could do without the McMansions, but there are many tasteful new homes along the lake. I fear for my parents camp.

I would preserve, if it were possible, the homey feel of Alton Bay. It seems to be the only town that still feels even remotely old fashioned. Sure, I like progress, but just don't want to see it on the lake.

And long live the Mount Washington. Would that she could sail forever.
