Depending on the intentions of the people restoring something, it can be good or bad. Not every restoration of a building is inyended to gentrify an area, though some are, and some don't mean for any good to come out of what they're doing for the people from an area.
The guy wasn't like some other people from areas nearby talking about bringing new life to the area while holding sacred about the area, he was actually originally from the town and wanted to do something good for the people there by restoring and opening his business in the space of a missed business. They might not all agree with what he and his wife were trying to do, but why wouldn't they support one of their own people when the alternative could be the building ending up in the hands of someone from out of town?

Surf Dracula Syndrome 

A phenomenon in film/television series, most notably streaming series, where the main premise is drawn out to such a point that it takes an entire season or more to get the parts of the series the audience is actually interested in seeing.

For example, if a series is titled "Surf Dracula," a majority of viewers would tune in expecting to see Dracula surfing by the first or second episode. However, the entire first season would instead be tedious padding and backstory before finally ending with Dracula surfing in the last five minutes of the season finale.
I watched "Smallville" on Netflix the other day. Dude, it was ten seasons of filler before he finally flew! Major Surf Dracula Syndrome!
