The original Goodwin Block on South Main St. was built in the 1860's between the Peavey Block and the bridge. This photo dates to the late 1880's. The four businesses and entryway were, L-R: Restaurant; A. E. Parker dry goods (opened 1884); entryway (leads to offices & the Wolfeborough Savings Bank on the second floor, & Masonic Hall on the third floor); Millinery; and Everett S. Albee jewelry business (opened 1883). There is a passenger train on the tracks (left of the building) that lead to the railroad station on the docks. The building burned down in 1899 and was quickly replaced by a simple one-story building.
