A little local history here; sometime unknown to me back in the 1920's, 30's, 40's or 50's, sometime or other, the land under the Family Dollar used to be a water wetland that was totally underwater, and the existing Plymouth St was the nearest road. It was a large backwater and wildlife area that feed into Lake Winnipesaukee which it still is but somewhat reduced in size.
You just might catch a glimpse of a great blue heron out behind the Family Dollar in Meredith.
For about forty-five years or something, the building was a ten pin, small ball, bowling ally, I think?
Who knows, only time will tell, but maybe this Family Dollar will be here selling $3.50 Red Barron Pizzas and $1.25 Nestle Goobers, for the next 40 years! Something to look forward to!
