- Contoocook_Railroad_Depot abstract "The Contoocook Railroad Depot is located in Hopkinton, New Hampshire, United States, in the village of Contoocook. The depot was completed in 1849 as one of the first substantial railroad passenger stations west of Concord on the Concord and Claremont Railroad. The building is one of the best preserved of a small number of gable-roofed railroad stations surviving from the first decade of rail development in New Hampshire. The station exemplifies the pioneering period of rail development in the state. The Contoocook Railroad Depot is significant under National Register Criterion A as a building that served and controlled the junction of two of the earliest short line railroads of New Hampshire, the Concord and Claremont Railroad and the Contoocook Valley Railroad. The building provided essential passenger service and communications for these interrelated lines. Under Criterion A, the depot symbolizes the impact of a new technology on a village that had been at the periphery of Hopkinton's economic life. With the arrival of the railroad, Contoocook Village assumed greater economic importance than old Hopkinton Village, becoming the center of most of the town's manufacturing and commerce. The depot is therefore associated with a historic change that significantly contributed to the development of the community and state.It is one of the earliest and least altered depots of the 1850 period in New Hampshire. Displaying the Greek Revival style, with modifications that proclaim its identity as a new building type, the depot is an important artifact in the history and evolution of railroad architecture in New Hampshire.Under Criterion A, the period of significance extends from 1849 to 1955, the arbitrary fifty-year cut-off date for National Register listings. Under Criterion C, the period of significance is 1849.The Contoocook Railroad Depot possesses integrity of location, design, materials, workmanship, feeling, and association for both periods of significance. The building's setting has lost some integrity through the partial removal of railroad facilities in the vicinity, including a long-removed engine house, although the wooden railroad bridge remains nearby and is one of the most significant railroad structures that historically characterized the rail center in Contoocook Village.".
