Per the notes accompanying the original picture in the Hobart Historical Museum file:
This bath house, at front and Main Street, was built by the W.P.A. and provided facilities for bathers at the Hobart Beach. Shown here in 1967, the beach was long closed and the building served as offices for the Hobart Chamber of Commerce. The bathhouse was demolished the following year for the construction of the Hobart Public Library.
