A Structure In A Historic District

This building used to be part of a bustling historic district in Groton, where stagecoaches stopped on their way from New York to Boston and back.

Do you know where it is?

This week, our shout out goes to Gregory Messina, who guessed first that the railroad stop in last week's photo was taken near the intersection of Bridge and Thames streets, by the tracks under the Gold Star Bridge. Denise Descheneaux, John Curtiss, Pete Swan, John Scott and Bob Enos also guessed it not long after.

Curtiss said he has a clear view of the building from his window at Bridgeworks Family Dental Center, where he's been for 45 years. In the 1970's, he said he wondered about the building, and during his lunch break one day found the only entrance. You could climb the steps and watch the trains go by, he said.

Enos also shared that the "119" on the building stands for Signal Station 119, and was originally built by New Haven Railroad when the company owned the line.
