The other change I noticed is more marketing for the "local shops" between the pier and Jack's Shack. There are still a number of unused beachside buildings in the locals shopping area and more of them have moved to the shore. I hope someone opens something along that stretch that is more like Jack's Shack used to be. Going there now for the first time, you wouldn't know what you're missing. You wouldn't even know Topher even existed. 😶

They have flipped the bar from near the food-ordering stand to the opposite side. More bar space, less sit-down table service. The sweet smell of sense is no longer in the air and the crowd is alot less chill. Reggae has been replaced with up-tempo caribbean house music. Volleyball court flipped to the other side and you can no longer play competitive volleyball because the chairs and tables go right up to the court line. Overall, Jack's vision is gone, just like Topher and Jack. I still prefer it to the pool area.

Grand Turk today. I made my way through the shopping gauntlet to the Carnival fun area with the pool, music, etc. Its still the same and I grew to prefer the chill vibe, reggae, etc. at Jack's Shack over the years so I had one drink and headed to Jack's. The beach right by the pier still has the toe-buster rocks.
