  • 374 Main Street
The white building with the staircase at the left of the watercolor is the building where John Richardson conducted his tailoring business with the Customs House on the second floor. The building in the center of the painting is part of the discarded South Norwood Cove school, presumably now J.T.R. Freeman's home. (It should be noted that what is now the village of Southwest Harbor used to be called South Norwood's Cove.) The little white building to the right would be the post office, probably with people playing croquet in front of it.
