Quincy Center Neighborhood

The Quincy Center neighborhood is known both for its rich history and modern retail shopping. A number of important office buildings, including the headquarters for the Stop & Shop Supermarket Company, are located in Quincy Center.

Founded in 1914 as the Economy Grocery Store, the Stop & Shop chain now includes more than 400 stores in the northeastern U.S. with more than 60,000 associate employees.

Quincy's city library, the Thomas Crane Public Library, was originally funded by the family of stone contractor Thomas Crane as a memorial to his success in the quarry industry. Constructed in 1882, the library is known for its magnificent architecture, which features stained glass, an elegant carved fireplace and intricate stone carvings. In 2007, the American Institute of Architects ranked the library among its favorite U.S. buildings. In 1987, the main library was added to the list of National Historic Landmarks. The building is fully accessible to those with disabilities. Some handicapped-friendly features include designated parking spaces, automatic door openers, elevators on all floors, accessible restrooms, large-print computer keyboards and wheelchair-accommodating sit-down computer terminals, hand-held magnifiers and Braille books available through interlibrary loan.

The community-focused library offers private rooms to small organizations and hosts lectures, concerts and art exhibitions and the city's public-access cable TV channel.

The Quincy Center neighborhood hosts a number of annual events. For one weekend in July, the community features its block party-style sidewalk sale. Local retail businesses erect canopies along a part of Hancock Street, where they sell their merchandise and offer family-fun events and rides.

The Quincy Center Flag Day parade, Thanksgiving parade on the Saturday before Thanksgiving and Christmas parade the Sunday after Thanksgiving, featuring Santa Claus riding atop a fire truck, bring residents and visitors together to line the streets.

Another annual attraction is the Quincy First Night held from New Year's Eve until New Year's Day, when residents have the opportunity to view artistically-crafted ice sculptures outside City Hall.

Shoppers in Quincy Center can choose from a wide variety of specialty retail shops. One such unique store is Lovely Pets aquarium store, which offers one of the Quincy area's largest selection of fresh- and saltwater fish, live corals and aquariums, equipment and decorations. Every aquarist, from the beginner to the experienced hobbyist, can find all they need to set up and successfully maintain an attractive, living aquarium.

Aquarium tanks at Lovely Pets are available in several sizes and from such well-known brands as Deep Blue and Marine Land. Lovely Pets will even provide custom-made tanks for customers who can't find exactly what they're looking for in standard manufactured tanks. They sell only the finest in aquarium filtration systems, including canister, internal or wet/dry filters, sumps, protein skimmers and ultraviolet sterilizers. Both novice and expert can find the ideal decorations for their particular aquarium setup, including live plants, rock wood and driftwood.

When it comes to live freshwater fish, beginning and experienced aquarists are sure to find what they want at Lovely Pets. Beautifully-colored parrot and African cichlids and discus are just a couple favorite species Lovely Pets carries. Experienced saltwater aquarists can choose from such exotic species as gold dogface, puffers and clown fish. Even the challenging lion fish is available for the daring aquarist.

An important part of a saltwater aquarium, live coral, is available in a choice of many gorgeous colors and includes such types as frog spawn, open brain and sea anemone. Lovely Pets also carries fully-cured live rock.

Aquarists can be confident their fish, fresh- or saltwater, will receive the most nutritious food available when they purchase it from Lovely Pet.
