I know this is off topic, I am surprised MMC has never developed the open parcel (aka the visitor parking lot) since the buildings were demolished back in the 60/70's ? Is it preserved to be a parking lot forever? I would love to see housing returned back to the neighborhood, workforce, parking...
Looks like Sprague has started their new project on Commercial Street, and containers are lined up by rail at the intermodal facility. After being used for Poland Spring, then going unused, is the intermodal facility back up and running again? If the bridge to the point was gone, double stacking...
New Haven has grown in the last 10 years. It was not the place to go 20 years ago. I remember The New Haven Ravens came to play the Maine Mariners back in the early 80s and remembered watching them play at the coliseum. Things have changed and Avelo has found a niche just like what Frontier did...
2018 wins with 166,526 as the all time high in Nov. short of 7,611. Still 2024 will be the banner year, and without counting Dec numbers, CY 2024 is 63.9K more than total of CY 2023 (2,218,441.00) as of right now with (2,282,368.00)!
It looks like Avelo is taking a play from the Frontier playback, flights leave pwm after 9pm which allows the New Haven flight passengers to enjoy the weekend in Maine I think there is more to this, additional flights ✈️ to come. MHT situation?
I was surprised when Avelo opened up BDL, my thought was over saturation, but BDL is flying the international routes plus other routes as well. This now brings PWM back up to 9 airlines. Now the folks at MHT are probably thinking what is going to happen next. MHT had the territory north of BDL...
I am beside myself on this one. I do have family in the Orange CT area, but why fly just to Tweed unless there is a big market for the area to Maine? ISP had a hard time as did HPN. This is just weird. unless they will use Tweed as a hub to other destinations.
The tallest building still in Maine is St Joseph's Church in Biddeford at 235(Steeple). The Casco comes in at 204.5 (most floors in Maine) 18, so let the games begin.. 300+ would be the winner north of Boston
275 tallest height in Manchester NH (City Hall Plaza) Built 1992 last tallest building built lowered per Portlander...LOL
289 tallest height in Worcester (The 6Hundred Residential Building) Built 1991 last tallest building built
790 tallest height in Boston (aka the Hancock) and at sea level...
The Jetport has updated the passenger stats list on the website..
Here are the numbers Jan-Oct comparing other years.
2024 is up 198,207 more than 2023!!!
June thru Oct recorded the highest numbers each month in Jetport history.
The months highlighted were record months.
I just hope Peter Munro and his gang from Keep Portland Livable don't come out of the woodwork on these projects. Just remember 10 years ago they proposed 4 buildings at 165ft then lowered to 72ft, 650 apartments to 440!!! but we have a local person versus a Miami Co (Federated Cos), cross my...
I was on the Planning committee that involved the parking garage the city wants built. Could Redfern offer to take ownership of the garage, the money is set aside.
There was a traffic study done 10+ years ago that mentioned a road going from that intersection to Gorham. I don't know if it was shelved or its a MDOT project.
