Then and Now Photo Challenge: Mystery House

Once a month, Wakefield Patch runs a contest on the site to see where a historical scene existed. So what's your best guess?

 

Where in Wakefield was this scene? The first reader who can a) correctly identify the building or b) give the address of where it is now will win an awesome Patch water bottle or tote bag! (Your choice).

Leave your guess in the comments section! First correct answer wins the Patch prize.
