949 Grafton St, Worcester, MA: One of the earliest surviving Super Stop & Shop models with the first Super Stop & Shop decor package still intact inside; possibly replaced an older location on Grafton Street

(*) The presence of several Boston-area Stop & Shop locations that became Whole Foods around 2000, or between 1981 and 2005, makes me believe that these stores may have been acquired as a group by Whole Foods rather than being converted individually. I have been unable to confirm or deny this theory, however.
