Have the State kick in some money. they waste enough of it everywhere else.

I remember when that corner was Busy Corner and McGrath's was where the wooded lot is now. Alton Bay has had a lot of changes in the last dozen years or so. So little of what made it wonderful is gone - McGrath's, the roller rink in the Pavilion, the previous mini-golf and the store that was in the barn across from Busy Corner.
That corner is NOT terrible. If you are coming from Dockside and you are turning, you have the right of way. It is a piece of cake to turn there. The parking is just fine.
Tearing down the building would just make the bay utterly unappealing and totally unattractive. Shame on you for even suggesting it.
