Stereoview Card 1800's View from PEMIGEWASSET HOUSE, Grand Hotel, Plymouth NH

Description: Stereoview 1800's View from PEMIGEWASSET HOUSE, Grand Hotel, Plymouth New Hampshire RARE! Very good condition! Possibly ONE of a KIND! The town of Plymouth is sort of the gateway to the White Mountains; it is located at the very southern end of the region, along the Pemigewasset River. This river valley forms the primary transportation corridor to the White Mountains from the south, and the town was a logical place to run an inn. Beginning in the 1760s, Colonel David Webster operated a tavern here, which was subsequently expanded by his family in the early 1800s. Wesbter’s Tavern was sold to Denison R. Burnam in 1841, who renamed it the Pemigewasset House, after the river that runs behind it. By the time the 1860, Burnam had expanded the building several times, but two years later it was destroyed in a fire. The Pemigewasset House was quickly rebuilt. The hotel came under the ownership of the Boston, Concord, & Montreal Railroad, whose tracks were located on the opposite side of the building. Around noon, both northbound and southbound trains would stop here for a half hour so passengers could eat in the dining room, and for those who wanted to stay the hotel could accommodate 300 guests at $3 per night or $14 to $17.50 a week.
