Old Wolfeboro

Lake Wentworth

Dockside Grille, just off of South Main St.

Hard to imagine this is what it used to took like at one time.

Many nice pix, and it's hard to dissect them all. My recollection is that, back in the day, gas stations had disticntive architecture. Among other features, Esso had a red lipstick roof feature. I always thought of the Yum Yum shop as being a former Esso/Exxon station. To me Gulf had their orange signs but nothing distinctive about architecture. YumYum = Esso, n'est ce pas?

[mcdude]

This pic indicates that the Yum Yum Shop was previously a Gulf Station.

I remember the Esso station quite well. It was located on the hill across from the A&P (which is now Hunters Supermarket). This was made into a nice little park once the station closed.

This old fashioned Esso gas station was rather unique as it did not have a car lift; rather it had a deep cement trench that the mechanic had to step down into in order to work under the vehicles. It was a very small Gas Station.

McDude is correct in that the Gulf Station was located at the current Yum Yum Shop, but prior to that it was located at the Ford Dealership across the street.

These pits were phased out because too many mechanics were killed or injured using them. Heavier-than-air fumes and gases would collect in the pits causing the mechanic to pass out or suffocate if no one noticed their distress.

I was a mechanic at the chevy dealer in wolfboro many years ago and we had those pits. Made certain jobs easy but really was dangerous aside from the fumes there was the issue of falling in or driving a car over the edge. At the time it was called Kamler Chevrolt and Buick and was located sort of behind Hunters grocery. (was it called that then, 40+ years ago?)

The A&P was in front of Kamler which before that was Hart's garage. The Rite Aid went in there and is now Walgreen's.

Cate Park was dedicated in 1967 on the site of what had been the Ann Inn and then, from the early 1940s onward, an Esso Service Station. At one time, Fred E. Varney was proprietor. Also, depicted in the background, is the old Lakeshore R.R. Station which is now the Dockside Restaurant.

Thanks for posting this picture.... It's amazing that this waterfront gas station was turned into such a desirable small public park with beautiful views of the lake.

Fred Varney is a familiar name and had his hands on a lot of things......

When I worked in one of those pits, the obvious dangers were the scorpions at the bottom! (This was in South Miami, FL, where I worked on some interesting foreign cars, including the Amphicar!).

What a great collection of Old Wolfeboro pix !!

We are talking about two A & P s. It was where the Stationery Shop used to be which is now Back Bay Clothing and then moved up the hill where Hunter's Shop and Save is now. The First National was where Dive Winnipesaukee is now but then moved to where Harvest Market is now.

[fatlazyless]

A neighbor's incredibly luxurious three car garage has a grease/oil pit in the center bay built by Bruin's right winger, Ukraine hockey player Dmitri Khristich in about 1998 so's he could work on his old Lada car built back in the U.S.S.R.

For a 1970's boxy Lada is best to have a grease pit. If you put that car up on a lift, the wheels or something could fall off car.

Both the Plymouth Walmart and Laconia Valvoline have oil/grease pits mostly for doing oil changes since not too many grease fittings, anymore.

The Wolfeboro Shopping Center was built in 1958 by Henry Hopewell and Frank Whipple of Tamworth. These buildings are on the original site of back bay, which was slowly filled in when the town used the area as a dumping site.

Fred E. Varney Co. built many "camps" on the lake, with most going-in at Wolfeboro's Springfield Point.

Supervisor Gordon Colby hired me to assist. Many poured concrete foundations and wooden window screens have my handiwork in them.

To replace damaged screening, you can pry out the wooden strips and staple-in new screening. I used copper screening, when the time came for mine. (Our place was built by Fred E. Varney Co., and no rodent has ever got inside--except for a chipmunk who followed me through the door after I refilled the bird feeder).

The Lada, built in the USSR, was a FIAT, built under license. You still see them in modern YouTube dash-cam videos of Russian traffic crashes--which are epic! (Lada was not the worst car to come out of Russia).

I never heard Henry used, it was always Harry Hopewell. 'Quirky guy, who has since passed away. New to me, Hopewell Point Road could have been named after him, but he also had a remarkable brother.

Could that Wolfeboro open-air market have been Stinchfield's Market?

[tis]

HopewellPoint was named after the Hopewells but he was the son. They lived in the house with the red metal roof.

Found this image on the Wolfeboro Facebook page and thought it would be a good addition to this thread.

Elm trees on Elm Street! (Early maps showed Elm Street running down to Wolfeboro's lakefront...)

Could that be a horse-drawn Molley-the-Trolley on the right? Maybe a "Bob's Hot Dogs" wagon from 120 years ago?

Laconia Car Company has a description in Wikipedia. It says it manufactured railway cars in Laconia from 1848 to 1928. It occupied seven acres of downtown Laconia and employed as many as 500 people.

1914 was the last year of profitable operation for the company. It had been focused on electric trolley cars and became unprofitable when trolley riders switched over to automobiles like the Ford Model T, 1908-1927, the car for every man, a car that most people could actually buy.

"Employment increased to a thousand workers by 1912, but focus on electric railway cars made the company uncompetitive for conventional railway vehicles as electric railway riders began using automobiles, and 1914 was the last year of profitable operation for the company."

"Production shifted to plywood motorboats before the company closed in 1928." When a company, 1848 to 1928, switches from railroad cars and then to electric trolley cars and then to baggage and mail cars and then to plywood motorboats ...... it is not a happy future and likely to close ..... and close, it did in 1928.

Is there an historical sign in Laconia, somewhere, on the Laconia Car Company, 1848-1928, a state historical sign similar to the Belknap College sign, 1963-1973, that's in Center Harbor?

Was Art the general manager? taxing my memory. Smallish guy, maybe 60 at the time lived over on 28 towards Alton?. I remember there was some el camino for a special customer about that time that got extra love in the rust proofing booth

[winnisummergal]

Yes, that's him. My grandparents lived on Springfield Point very close to the Kamler's home there. I have very fond memories of my years growing up and visiting them all in that area. The Kamler's, Buckman's, Graham's all a great group over there- I'm sure I'm forgetting so many.

Well I can tell you the "extra love" worked, even though it ended up in California, rust was never an issue.

Definitely not the 1980's.

I don't know the exact time frame that the Back Bay was filled in but I would guess sometime during the 1940's or 1950's. After that time Government regulations likely would not have ever allowed it to be done......

[tis]

The shopping center where TD Bank and the basketball and fields etc in back were the town dump. I think they just probably dumped in the water and that started to fill it in and then they covered it when the moved the dump out to 109A. I remember before the shopping centers were there the road was more like a causeway and sometimes it got flooded. I was so young-I wish I could remember more.

[ApS]

I remember a short drive to the dump. Today, I have to plan a trip to the dump on my monthly schedule.

Is the shopping center sinking? A rounded concrete curb has been installed to keep deep puddles from flooding the packaging store.

As for "causeway", a heavy rain a few years ago had a kayak used to get around the parking lot. That picture made the cover of The Granite State News!

My mother was brought to Point Breeze for the first time in 1924 when she was one month old. As you can see from the photo, there were no cabins then, just big rooming houses, and Charles Stevens would not tolerate her crying at night, so my grandpa would walk her on the beach and through the woods to quiet her.

She brought my Dad there in 1947, just before they married, and I came for the first time at the age of 3 months in 1950. My family was there every summer from 1924-1982 which was the last year.

It was remarkable that the same families tended to have the same vacation times, and I could still tell you, for the first three weeks in August, which cabins #1 - #32 "belonged" to which families, because it was (almost) always the same people.

My parents, sisters, and two sets of grandparents had 3, 4, and 5. My cousins were usually "on the other side", where one of the old rooming houses "the Boulders" still survived.

Lots of memories of times gone by. I live about a half mile away, on Lake Wentworth, and I'm raising my kids there.

Point Brezze in more recent years. You can still make out it is the same place,

Ok, since nobody commented on Clearwater Lodges I'll bite. It has been run by the Vinnicomb family since some time in the late 50s I think. The granddaughter and her husband now run it although Herb is still living there. If you remember the storm that came through last summer, it hit Clearwater hard, knocking down trees and damaging several cottages. It is on North Main St below the Libby Museum/Tuftonboro line. It is beside Piping Rock. When we were kids some guy and I think his name was Matt Brendell owned Piping Rock and he had a big megaphone ( I think that's what it's called ) and yelled to all his guests on it. They would water ski and when somebody would successfully get up he would yell out "Atta Boy". It was pretty funny.

Looks like some sort of hobby shop of sorts. As a little kid definitely a place I would have wanted to visit. Loved model trains when I was little.

Anyone remember this place?

If I remember correctly the Klickety Clack closed down only about a year or so ago and a high-end antique/home furnishings shop went into the space.



From Trip Advisor

This little train museum has several different scale dioramas that have so much detail and even interacting buttons that it extremely impressive. The museum was put together and maintain by a small group of hobbyists that built all the scenes. If you or your little ones like trains stop in for an hour: it's really cool.

Any guess on the age of that car and what kind it is ?? Pan to the right to see it.

[ApS]

Pre-War, about late 1930s. Manufacturer TBA.

[fatlazyless]

That car looks like it must be a 1938 Packard Model 1600, six-cylinder sedan.

What a dull neglected finish ..... needs a good Simonizing!

[TheTimeTraveler]

The vehicle does have "suicide doors" if that helps someone identify the year and the model.

I don't see any railroad tracks so presumably the train no longer ran to the dock (but I think someone said the tracks were removed in the late 20's).
