How one Massachusetts downtown bounced back from the crippling shadow of a mall and Walmart

This is from Mass Live and from Reporter Gintautas Dumcius, on 9 August 2017.

The location is Hudson, Massachusetts:

Located on the western edge of Middlesex County and off Interstate 495, Hudson is surrounded by Stow, Bolton, Berlin, Clinton, Marlborough and Sudbury.  The late Gov. Paul Cellucci is among its most famous sons.
