On the opposite side of Washington Street, Cottage Street is largely a residential, this portion of Cottage Street is an extension, which runs from Washington Street ending at Broadway and is largely commercial. It was added in the 1920s when the Town Square was created.

10 Cottage Street
In this store block has been home to many businesses over the years. At one time it was Norwood Trophy & Engraving, and I believe a clock repair shop operated out of this block. Today there is a restaurant and a small market.
On Corner of Cottage & Central
Across from Lewis’s on the Split was the A & P Supermarket. Yes, it was just the A&P supermarket, but on the opposite corner of// Central and Cottage was the First National Supermarket.
