Looking at it on Google earth, and measuring it out, I certainly think there is room to level 400 feet each way and pave to get the primary runway to 8,000 feet! Unless there are restrictions/rules I’m not aware of.

Recently, from locals or in the news, we have seen stories about recent closures or struggling business in and around Portland. There was that week or two a few weeks ago where we saw Slab, Local 188, Ananias, and another one or two close. People were in an uproar because all they’ve been seeing...

I think we may be getting extreme. All I argue is that federal and state funding should be more reflective of the impact the airport is having on the community/region. Looking at the AIP grants in the state of Maine… in 2022 Portland got a nice 11M while PQI for 8M. 2023, PWM 3M, PQI 1M, BGR...

54 million for 100 people per day… good for them! Can’t say it’s a bad move with what I have been preaching (build it, they will come). Would be great for PWM to get some much deserved federal or state funds considering they have had 5-6 record months in a row… just seems logical with the...

Death, taxes, and at least one airline leaving MHT per year! 🤣 it was Spirit that announced in 23, Sun Country 3 months after its first flight this year (2024), what will it be in 25??

This is a pretty awful sight. Re-paving a massive downtown parking lot that is hopefully going to be zoned for a building of 325 feet… when I saw the vehicles I was hoping it was some type of site work for a building!

Yes!!! This has been my message in here for years!😂 The city and Jetport must have never seen the Field of Dreams!!

Death, taxes, and airlines dropping MHT shortly after adding service.😂 Rumor has it that breeze is next.

Just pull the terminal all the way down to Gate 14!!😂 might as well go all out right?! Someday.

After spending my college years in Burlington I would certainly not put it two… or top 5. But that’s just an opinion haha! It’s tough to compete with Portland for sure. I won’t ramble on, but it certainly isn’t what it used to be and certainly isn’t the foliage paradise that the social media...

Thanks for the feedback and details guys! I’m doing a deeper dive and a presentation that I am working on that I’ll have to share when it’s complete. Would love to send in an opinion piece backed up with tons of data! I truly think there can be a lot done to keep drawing great numbers!

Sports Business Journal named Portland the #1 Minor League Sports Market. This is awesome recognition but I believe the dedicated fans that make this market number one deserve better in terms of arenas/facilities! Sea Dogs (Hadlock (Delta Dental))- A nice venue and the only facility with...

Good question, it should be on track to finish by next summer if it weren’t for the neighbors a half mile away complaining about noise NEXT TO AN AIRPORT. As they are the same ones who complain about no parking in the garage… so frustrating how people can delay progress.

lol and hundreds of people complaining in the comments. Last time I checked there were well over 200 comments and not even 200 likes! People absolutely lose it when they see nice new housing being built in Portland😂

Any updates with this project but more importantly, the recode process that has been talked about in this projects chat. I know it was mentioned October would be a big month for the recode/height increase process. If anyone knows anything it would be great to be filled in!

Well said Cosakita! If you build it they will come. New office space like this does fill up. I think it would be great to see a true office tower with mixed uses on the ground floor go up near Union Station, of course, in downtown, or in Bayside. Union Station comes to mind because of my dream...

SWITCH TO ON TOP OF THE WATER PROJECT THAT HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR YEARS!! What an amazing venue that would be. Nobody thinks outside of the box in Portland. This “new stadium” is doing the bare minimum to make it into a USL stadium. It’s sad.

Gotta love that sign on the roof pointing planes on the harbor visual in the right direction haha!

That’s a great point haha!
