If Portland can't get it done (which they they have proved that they can't) than I am all for an arena conveniently located off the Turnpike in Westbrook. I assume it would be privately financed. I just want a new state of the art arena somewhere in the Greater Portland area.

Go to www.bangordailynews.com "ARENA" Very Nice looking complex. Why can't Portland get a new building like this?

The boxy sides with just punched window openings are quite ugly. Overall I'd give the building's design a B- grade. Then to take the Bayside Student Housing and run it 4 floors and several hundred feet along the highway seams to be a lack of good planning. That building should have been a...

Overall I like the building but do find it to be a bit to boxy. I wish it were at least 4 to 6 floors higher. I like the fact that it has a fair amount of vertical glass at one side. I am not to impressed with the student housing next door to Intermed.

I wanted him to be City Manager so that he'd push through a new Arena and a 20 + story high rise building.

I read the other day where Boulos has put this project on hold due to the fact that they couldn't come to an agreement w/ Pierce-Atwood Law firm (major tenant). I have heard that PA is very demanding to deal with. They want Class A space for a Class B price. Whatever happened to PATRICK??

A pipe dream! It makes no sense. Why do we need another mega cinema and another indoor sports facility? Indoor Sports facilities and indoor ice rinks are not big money makers. Like most large projects in the greater Portland area, it will likely never happen. How about a new 9,000 seat arena...

Check it out at www.bangordailynews.com To bad Portland couldn't do the same instead of wasting the time and money for a remodeled Civic Center that in 15 to 20 years will need to be replaced w/ a new one anyways. http://bangornews.com/news/t/city.aspx?articleid=158984&zoneid=176

I like the looks of this building quite alot. I just wish it was 6 stories higher.

Attended the meeting and this is how I saw it; 1. Architect Janet Marie Smith will do a fabulous job w/ her proposal to make the best of the old relic the CCCC. 2. Portland City Councilors K. Donoghue & D. Marshall who were in attendance were not impressive at all. Especially Marshall who...

I am planning on attending. If in fact I do, I will fill you in.

Future Civic Center Public meeting being held on Wednesday, September 26 at 5:30 pm at the Penalty Box Grille inside the CCCC. Janet Marie Smith (Architect) will be in attendance as well as the Civic Center board of trustees. More details can be found at the civic center website.

Sheraton Hotels @ Maine Mall, So. Portland I was told yesterday that the two circular Sheraton Hotel (mini) towers (Maine Mall area) will be torn down within the next year +. The property was purchased and along w/ the property where the Maine Mall Cinema used to sit will be a new "Best Buy"...

6 stories high, large U - shaped building w/ an approx. 35' x 100' 6 story section coming off of the midpoint of one of the legs of the U-shape. Also, the 3 story existing "Grand Trunk" building connects to the Watermark w/ a small skywalk. With this development, the Starwood Element...

Actually, yesterday we received a full set of architectural drawings for Watermark. It has changed from the renderings shown on Architectural Team's website. It's still a fairly substantial and aesthetically pleasing project.

I suspect he (JC) will sell the property. He's just biding his time. My guess is that Waterview will never happen, at least not by JC. Those renderings look pretty much the same as what I saw on Channel 8 News last week. I assumed they were the up to date drawings.

You can view some nice drawings/renderings of Watermark at www.architecturalteam.com , WHAT'S NEW , Residential. Nice looking development. Also, I talked to an individual last evening in the Portland commercial property development business and he scoffed at the idea that Waterview (Jeff...

Waterview I have been told that Cohen has put the parking garage (that he purchased for parking for Waterview) across the street from where Waterview would be built on the market - for sale. Does this mean that Waterview is unlikely to be built?

Penn National threatens to halt slots construction. The State going back on it's word wants to increase the amount of tax they had agreed upon so that they can help balance the state budget. IDIOTS! Penn National is not going to assign the construction contract to Cianbro until this is...
