It's a coouple problems - Condo greed or the value of real estate. To save it, you have to find a family that doesn't want to sell the motel, boarding house restaraunt etc. That doesn't happen to often now, because the hard work the grandfather or fathers put in doesn't mean much to the offspring or those that got "left" the business. For those that still hold, their hard work is the legacy the next generation want and those they want to give - $$$. Fact of life. So you have to find a historical society or some other interested party that can pay the $ to save it or have the towns zone out these "new" uses. Preserve heigh regulations, parking, green spaces etc. Good luck. The towns are selling out for TAXES. Is my little house in OT that's 440 sq ft on a 50x99 foot lot worth more then $3300 in taxes (read it again, not a typo) or should the town allow me to out up 2000 sq ft and get $10k in taxes? Said but true. If someone comes in, gives you $5 million, if you do NOTHING, you SHOULD be able to earn $250,000 per year. So you take a 20 unit motel 100 nights at $100 = $200,000 - less taxes etc etc. Yahoo!
