    Becoming something like New Jersey is not something to plant a flag in. Why can’t you be happy with a diverse state? Southern Maine urbanism and beaches mixed with Maine’s rugged coast and vast inland forest and small towns? That’s what makes California….a lot of diverse people, geography and...

    Basketball is not a "lost cause". They have never invested enough resources in that program.....that will soon change with a new $100 million arena. That being said.....Maine is not competing with UConn....they are competing in America East with 7 other land grant universities + Bryant.

    Don't mean to be rude but you know nothing about Cooper Flagg. Even UConn couldn't sign him....his dream school was always Duke and that is where he ended up. You do know that his mother played for the University of Maine, right? She played for Joanne Palombo and with Amy Vachon on the team...

    Rock Row (née The Ridge, née Dirigo Plaza) | Westbrook, ME

    Hard to believe that they messed this up so much. Had they concentrated on residential to begin with....they would have been marketing the units in the heart of a Southern Maine residential real estate boom. Now we have wars, tariffs & a very cloudy economic future and Rock Row has already...

    In another few years it might be illegal to speak any language other than English in this country.

    Old Port Square (née Canal Plaza) | Portland

    I started looking at buildings in various American and Canadian cities….specifically the caps/rooflines. Atlanta has a bunch of examples but I found Bank of America Plaza to be one of the better ones. The Old Port Square design has grown on me though. I think it is sophisticated and...
