Melman's Market - 1954

Melman's Market - 1954

Melman's Market was a mainstay on Brookline Boulevard for over fifty years, owned by Morris Melman. The store opened in 1927 at 924 Brookline Boulevard. In June of 1954 the market had a grand-reopening after an extensive remodeling effort. The new store contained many of the modern conveniences at the time and offered a variety of meats, fruits and other grocery items. This was a time when small markets like Melman's were the best place to do your shopping, and Brookline had several along the boulevard. Melman's Market closed its doors in the mid-1980s.
