Built in 1862 at 329 Main Street at the Southwest Harbor Schoolhouse Moved in 1906 to 339 Main Street, purchased by George Harmon and converted in to commercial space and apartments. "In 1906 the new town voted to build a new schoolhouse at the village and raised the sum of $4500 to do so. This sum included the purchase of additional land. The old building stood close to the main road and had but little land surrounding it, and the new one was to be set farther back with a playground in front of it. The old building was sold to George Harmon and moved to the lot south of the school lot where it is now used for stores and apartments.
