Upham's Corner, or Uphams Corner (without the apostrophe), is a commercial center in Dorchester, the largest and most historic neighborhood of Boston, Massachusetts The intersection of Dudley Street/Stoughton Street and Columbia Road is the heart of Upham's Corner, and one of Dorchester's main business districts.
It is served by the MBTA Commuter Rail's Fairmount Line (at the Upham's Corner stop,〔(MBTA Commuter Rail > Fairmount Line Schedules and Maps )〕 as well as several MBTA bus lines.
The district has several historical sites, including the Strand Theatre, the Columbia Square Masonic Hall Building (1895), and Dorchester North Burying Ground (1634), one of the nation’s oldest and one of seven seventeenth-century burying grounds in Boston.
The Upham's Corner business district is surrounded by other residential neighborhoods that are home to a diverse mix of people, including Caucasians of European descent, Cape Verdeans, Hispanics, African Americans and West Indians. Recently, there has been a major influx of young professionals, gays, and working artists to the neighborhood, adding to its diversity. Dining options in the area include southern soul food cuisine as well as several ethnic restaurants including Cape Verdean, Caribbean, Chinese, Greek, and Italian.
==History==
Upham's Corner is named for Amos Upham (1788-1879), who opened a dry goods store in 1804 on the site of the present Columbia Square building. This store was run by three generations of the Upham family, into the mid 1890s.〔(Dorchester Atheneum: Landmarks Description Upham's Corner )〕
