Brother's Supermarket chosen for Uphams Corner
Uphams Corner businesspeople are excited to get their anchors back, and Jeanne Dubois is particularly excited about the fresh cut meat. Nelson and his brothers Eduardo, German, Victor, Jose and Ambiori, have run a 3,000 square foot store at 46 Washington St. for 18 years. They've owned Brother's Super Liquors at 740 Blue Hill Ave. even longer. The CVS, which replaces America's Food Basket, a grocery that closed in February, will open its doors on Oct. 21, said CVS regional manager of real estate Debbie Constantine.

Whither Uphams Corner? Small shops gear up for change
The future looks bright. Creeping into the skyline from formerly vacant lots just outside Upham's Corner on Dudley and Hancock streets are two new housing developments that people will start moving into early next year. The Salvation Army will soon break ground on The Ray and Joan Kroc Community Center, a gigantic family oriented facility just west of the newly renovated commuter rail station.
