The Power House on Factory Street, now Lehner Street, was built in 1912 and remains there today. The sign indicates "Wolfeboro Fire Precinct, 1912, Electric Light Dept." This was the time of considerable expansion in electrical service throughout the town. The smokestack in the rear was part of the remains of a fire that destroyed the original Bell Shoe Shop in 1887.
