No, one person owns the building that houses those three restaurants, and he runs the two downstairs, but the Marker 21 upstairs is run by another person and that person will be running Garwoods.

This is correct.

Also, the same person owns and “operates” the Downtown Grill next door. He also owns Bayberry Juice Barn. I was told that he recently purchased Buckeys up in Moultonboro, as well.

The building ownership and the individuals who "run" the restaurants are not important, at least to me within the context of this thread. That one person or group is controlling all these restaurants in a small area is not good for competition/diners--and apparently it's worse than I thought, and growing.

This is not to criticize the restaurant owner, I generally like what he's done so far, just to make an observation.

No, he's done very well for himself, I would never criticize him but I agree with you. He owns other property in town as well as other places.
