That totally depends on your providers. I have received nothing short of stellar care from MaineHealth. It has been on par with the care I have received from MassGeneral.

It is caused by lime leaching from the mortar. Higher than usual amounts of lime are needed in mortar that is laid in winter and this is the result. It usually continues for a number of years.

You obviously don't need to commute through Portland at peak times of traffic. Some areas have become ridiculous and it can take more than an hour to cross the city.

Make the orchard a prominent feature in your presentations and make it an asset instead of a liability. Clearly show seasonal shadow lines. If I recall, shadows would only be cast on the orchard by the building in the winter. Fun fact ... that is a GOOD thing. Winter sunlight can often cause...

This plan is already outdated and unfeasible. 105 parking spaces and 750 sq. ft. passenger waiting area? What about planning for the future? Oh wait. It's Portland. We don't do that here.

I laughed my ass off listening to the guy who won the design contest going on about his inspiration for the white pine tree. It was a pile of BS. That image is not original to him. I have it in my horticulture graphics library.

Unfortunately this is not a pine tree. It represents a spruce or a fir.

There is no wondering. I lived in Billings for 10 years. For tourists, Bozeman and Missoula are closer to the areas that tourists want to visit. Billings is the primary hub for agriculture, energy and healthcare care for the four state area around it. (MT, WY, ND, SD) Billings just completed...

You just missed #93 which is my hometown airport BZN Bozeman-Yellowstone at 1.23M emplanements. 20% the population of the Portland area but a hugely popular tourist area due to its proximity to Yellowstone and ski resorts. BZN has been under constant construction for 15 years and is currently...

As someone who has been a landscape design professional for 40 years I can tell you that you couldn't be more wrong with your assertions.

Unfortunately this is not a park. It is a plaza. I would have liked to have seen much more greenery and much less hardscape.

I lived on the river next to this site for many years and the water even at it's highest never caused any damage.

I know it's early but this looks like cheap public housing or university housing for families. Again, zero design effort.

Did I say "everybody that I know has a car"? NO

There are just not enough interesting aircraft in and out of Portland to justify anything like this. The cars that occupy the current viewing lot often sit there for hours making it appear that the lot id full but it's just squatters taking up space. Spotting is better at the remote lot off...

This may be characteristic of Gen Z'ers in larger metropolitan areas but is not really representative of those in that group in Maine and other more rural states. All of my nieces and nephews are Gen Z'ers and they all drive.

Maybe Portland isn't Boston but do we need to lower our standards because of that?

Please don't bother. The addition is not the holy grail. I do not care who designed it. EVERY designer makes mistakes and the addition to the PMA is no exception. It is mediocre and deserves no effort at preservation. Who gives a damn WHO designed it? Blah, blah, blah. It lacks balance in...

Mark Bessire definitely needs to be removed but so does much of the board who has followed his mis-guided lead. His arrogance around the Free St. property is nothing short of irresponsible. We need a new director, board members and architects to start back at square one. I personally feel the...

I was able to get a good look into the porte cochere last evening and there is definitely direct access into the garage.
