Richard Tucker Rundlett, an entrepreneur from two old local families, built this brick and granite commercial building in 1872, and it has anchored the north side of Main Street ever since with modern shop, office, and meeting space. In 1884, it housed Gibbs & Rundlett Clothing, Books & Notions store, Sarah Hilton Dry Goods, Joseph Borland Shoes, Sol Holbrook Jewelry, Rufus Sewall Law Office, Louisa Elms Notions, Sarah Carr Dry & Fancy Goods, and the Benjamin Smith Law Office. The third floor contained meeting rooms for fraternal organizations including the Aramber Lodge No. 71 of the Order of Oddfellows, Lincoln Lodge No.3, and Masons Hall, while lectures, concerts, and dances were held in the spacious and airy ballroom. Sol Holbrook's family came to Wiscasset before 1750, he learned his trade at the Waltham Watch Co., and he opened a jewelry store in Wiscasset before 1888. By 1898, he had added bicycles to the shop, and in 1909 he became a liquor agent. Sol Holbrook also served as Town Clerk for 44 years, and his shop finally closed in the 1920s.
