Missing from this list is the Tip Top Meat market which was mentioned in an oral history recollection. We are sure there are more missing. If you can add to the list please go to our web site, www.edgewaterhistory.org and contact us.
In more recent times Erickson’s Deli and Edgewater Produce have offered specialties to Andersonville shoppers. These are current stores and so did not appear on the historic district application.
We continue to look for photos of these shops and would appreciate the opportunity to make a copy of anything you might have.
