    Augusta, Maine

    Because it is the third smallest State Capital (Pierre and Montpelier) I think it gets overlooked on the national level and Mainers just except it for what it is which is a mid sized (for Maine) river town that is prone to flooding when the Kennebec melts. The downtown proper is limited in...

    Gate 11 will remain American and 12 and 14 are designated as common use however Breeze is making a push for one of them. The three new jetways and the expanded concourse are scheduled to be fully operational during the first week of June at last check.

    Augusta, Maine

    Old Fort Western is located across the Kennebec River from downtown Augusta. It was built in 1754 and I would not survive a week in that environment and would be on the first stagecoach to Portland!

    Augusta, Maine

    Relatively new Capital Judicial Center building on the top left which I think is an attractive addition to the downtown area. The landmark Olde Federal Building on the lower left was completed in 1890 and was Augusta's Post Office for over a century.

    Augusta, Maine

    The 9 story Key Plaza office building dominates the Augusta skyline and was completed in 1988. It now houses the state offices for Health and Human Services and I think the Key Bank branch and drive thru has been permanently closed which is disappointing seeing the plaza was named for the bank.

    Augusta, Maine

    Felt that Maine's state capital was worthy of its own thread. Due to its more central location it was chosen as the head of state government in 1827 over Portland which held the title upon Maine becoming a state in 1820. Current population is now estimated at 19,000. Photos are screenshots...

    One more month Matt. How did the new "stuff" look to the right seeing you had a great vantage point? I have never taken a flight that has used that ground level pedestrian covered walkway but I won't miss it when it disappears!

    Maine Public Broadcasting Bldg. | 25 Commercial St. | Portland

    Not my money and if that's the route Maine Public chooses for their future home good for them. I'm am just pleased the building will have a new purpose and will hopefully add some vitality to the Monument Square area especially when the Fidelity Building finally gets renovated. I've given up...
