New store in a historic place…
Posted June 24, 2010 at 12:11 pm by Ian Byington
Next time you’re heading out Cattle Point Road, you’ll notice the red store at the top of the hill near Madden Road – that used to be the main grocery store on the island, established in 1896, called the Corner Store.
That’s the historic part of this story…
This spring, Regan Taylor has set up a nice welcoming spot she calls Strand, featuring eclectic antiques and collectibles. She has a fridge from the 1920s that runs (!), in which she keeps water for all the bicyclists who come by. There’s furniture & art & sculptures & all kinds of things…. The little store sure holds a lot, as you’ll see when you go by.
Regan tells me she’s open from 11am-4pm from Friday through Mondays, so take a moment and see what she’s got.
