Ah, Photoshop is such a wonderful (?) tool! Or did jumping all those waves addle your brain?
Would be nice to have that open, though. Fantastic location, and though I've never had a Veazey's pizza I understand they were really good. Wonder if the recipes and equipment go with the property.....

Just as soon as they donate the building and land to our cause, we will be up and running.....

...to me is that the asking price has dropped form the original 950,000 to 450,000 the last time I saw it. That was a while ago. May be even lower now. IMHO the problem is the very small lot size. An operator would be limited to fuel and store sales for revenue and that would be hard nut to crack. It is even to small to bulldoze and build a mini-mansion or starter castle on, but it has a million dollar view for sure.

I wonder why they wouldn't run some food and supplies while hey are waiting on a buyer?Is this property banked owned?
I would imagine the place could do a fair amount of take out business via call in orders. Maybe some online shopping and pick up service ?
Good bit of money around those parts with very little to no competition.

ALL the competition is in those parts. Sinclairs, Harbor Docks, and even Chucks you could say as far as eating. Gas and supplies, Parker Creek and Kowliga are competitors with much bigger stores. But the biggest reason your plan wouldn't work is there is NO kitchen in that building or anywhere on the premises. The BBQ sign was a joke.

But they used to be known for their pizza. How did they manage that without a kitchen?

We sold the family place near there in '03 I think it was, maybe '02, and I didn't go there much after I bought my place in the cheap seats in 2000. I patronized them from the '70s till then. NEVER saw a pizza anywhere near the place. Seems like there was an outdoor BBQ pit at one time and you could buy Boston butts precooked on some weekends, but there was never any sort of kitchen or health rating that I know of.
Barbara Veazey was the listing and selling agent on Dad's old place. I am very familiar with the place. If I am wrong someone with more current knowledge please correct me. I was even there looking through the windows last year when a friend from Atlanta wanted to go and check the place out. Saw no sign of a kitchen then either, but a pizza oven doesn't require the same fire safety as a frier so maybe they had one tucked in there somewhere. It does still require a ventilation hood as far as I know and I don't recall seeing one then. But maybe it is there somewhere.
How about it Murph? You ever buy pizza there? Another point is that the last decade or so that it was in operation it was known as Pine Point Marina, not Veazey's. Seems like the Veazeys took it back the last couple of years and tried to make a go of it, but my memory aint what it used to be.

In all fairness I never bought a pizza there, but am convinced that the idea didnt come from "divine intervention". Maybe they had a microwave and a deal with DiGiornos'...LOL

Could be, and they may have had a Hunt Brothers set up like in the c-stores everywhere. Having thought about it for a while I know some of them don't have vent hoods. Store 34 comes to mind, so maybe they did in those years I wasn't around.
