[quote="Guest"]Well there goes any chance in having a deli/resturaunt where Hannah & Massons used to be. The real estate office next door bought the building and will be ripping all the grills and freezers out of the place. What a shame, because that would have been a perfect place for another business. The way it looks in this town its going towards all offices....[/quote]
