Living in the neighborhood, one possible use for the existing structure could be a west side public market. Preserving and re-useing historical buildings is a win-win for the entire community.The continuing attitude of any business is good business by our city is outdated, and does nothing to encourage diversity and growth within our community. Many thanks to all who are putting up the good fight!

The debasement of our nation continues... This beautiful house of worship, your heritage and part of your community's identity to fall for a Dollar Store selling cheap crap from China... Like Fulton, NY when they demolished their First Congregation Church for a Family Video Store. Well done, fellow Americans! Hon. Steven W Lindsey state rep Keene, NH

Tear it down. It's an eyesore. We've got churches everywhere in this city. In former homes, stores, bowling alleys. C'mon man.
