Gaudy colors just the ticket to attract tourists

I’ve been saying for a long time, “That’s what this town needs, a martini/sushi bar painted a two-tone bright green.” All in keeping with the DSBA/Association of Concerned Businesses/NICAN position when they opposed that awful, terrible bypass. It would be devastating for the old original character of downtown. We wouldn’t be able to attract all those tourists. But a gaudy, cheap circus tent motif on the old Pastime  is just the ticket to achieve that sleazy effect that  everyone comes here for.
