At 59 Congress Street in Rumford, Maine, the Rumford Falls Power Company Building stands as a two-story Beaux-Arts office structure designed by prominent New York City architect Henry J. Hardenbergh and constructed in 1906 by builder Frank Bunker Gilbreth. Built for the power company that drove Rumford's growth during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, the building exemplifies the refined commercial architecture of its era. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.
