I spent the afternoon down at the creek watching the tide come in and thinking about all the families this place has fed for generations. I am currently working on a formal rebuttal to the council about their park proposal because this land belongs to our history and not to a developer.

Seeing this kind of backing for a place that has fed my family for generations hits harder than I can explain. We are officially on the city council's radar and they cannot ignore the history we are fighting to protect.

My family has been going there since I was a kid. You cant just destroy history for some fancy new houses. Leave it alone!
SAVE THE CRAB HOUSE. Iconic spot.
so sad to see how portsmouth treats local businesses. johnsons is part of the community and we need it here.
Eminent domain for a park view? Give me a break. Everyone knows it is just to boost property prices for the developer.
i grew up eating crabs there with my dad. 95 years means nothing to the city council i guess. so corrupt.

This is total garbage. If those people wanted a view they should have known a crab house was right there. They moved in late!
