WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — It took about a month longer than expected, but the Cumberland Farms on Main Street finally reopened Tuesday at exactly 3 p.m.
The gas station/convenience store had been closed since a ceiling fire in March severely damaged the structure. The fire wasn't a good thing, but good thing came out of it: the damage pushed the building to the forefront of the 71-year-old national chain's ongoing project to renovate or rebuild hundreds of its stores.
The new Williamstown shop includes a coffee bar, frozen shakes, premade sandwiches, fresh grilled hot dogs and bakery items along with the usual convenience store fare. The layout is lighter and more spacious than before and the exterior has a more traditional look.
Better yet, it's back to being open 24 hours for those working odd hours who need to pick up milk.
Cumberland's regional managers had hoped to have the store open by the end of October but better late than never.
