Pitman Manufacturing of Laconia was one of the largest hosiery manufacturers in the State in the 1800’s. In 1890 they built a track-side freight depot at 94 New Salem Street. The freight room was sold in the 1940’s and after several different owners, we purchased it in 1988. We did a first stage renovation and used it as an Antique Store until 2009. The second stage of renovations: new insulated roof, heating system, complete re-wiring, third bathroom, kitchen and a five-sided hickory dance floor are now complete for its next incarnation – Pitman’s Freight Room.
