Original Stop & Shop Location
I didn't realize until I saw this from the Herald that S&S started in Somerville.
"In its 94th year since the Rabinovitz family founded Economy Grocery Stores Co. in Somerville, the chain of 389 stores now known as Stop & Shop is refreshing its look."
Does anyone know where the original store was and/or where any of the other S&S stores were prior to the one they built at the old Somerville Lumber site?
I find it odd they didn't have any Somerville locations for a number of years.

Over time, the supermarket closed and was replaced by Fretter Superstores (an electronics chain), then by AJ Wright. Bradlees closed and was replaced by Target. MediMart was sold to Walgreens, which kept this location for a while, but eventually closed it. Some auto parts store is there now.
