Another Alton Bay Landmark bites the dust

Thanks for the update, dva. That's still an almost 15 mile drive to do laundry from our place in Alton Bay, but it's probably an easier ride than heading over to Center St. in Wolfeboro. We now have 3 banks, 3 hardware stores, and about the same # of florists in Alton, too bad we don't have a laundromat. Mr. Bahre finally got his supermarket/pharmacy, too bad he wasn't also concerned with doing the wash. He seems to be able to make things happen. Someone had mentioned that the Wolfeboro laundromat was also going to run the one in Alton, but I guess that's not true.

Will they sell newspapers there?

The old video store on Main St might be a good spot for a laundromat. I had heard a rumor that a chinese restaurant was going in there but it's been vacant for some time now.

Here is a link to the New Mini Golf at Alton Bay.

Thanks for posting that link. Now I'm looking forward to the new place being completed. Chuckster's in Chichester was absolutely PACKED on Mothers' Day last Sunday. They have quite a business there and I'm hoping that the Alton Bay site doesn't disappoint because I have a little boy who probably won't let me drive past the place without stopping once it's completed!
