Fitzgerald's is quite the store! It's a general store dating back to around the 1850s, still going strong as a convenience store today. Fortunately and unfortunately, the roughly 3,000 square foot store has been recently renovated and is today Cordaville's Market. It's situated at the Southborough train station on the Framingham-Worcester line, which dates back to the 1830s, so it's likely this location was chosen even over 150 years ago because of its proximity to the train station. (In case you couldn't tell, I took the above picture from a train window.) That's a fun way to end our look at the route 9 area (although, of course, we're about a mile and a half south of route 9 itself here), and tomorrow we'll be taking a look at the next geographic region, back towards Worcester again!
