SAM CAHOON'S FISH MARKET: Sam Cahoon ran a prosperous fish business in Woods Hole during the first half of the twenty century. He is remembered today for his wry wit and warm generosity.

Located at the southern end of Luscombe Avenue across from the LeeSide and between the Steamship Authority and what is now Linda Lebach Realty there is a tiny pocket park.
