Wow - this plus the Levee Development will be huge.

Still looks great. Good infill for the spot.

I often thought the Grand Trunk Train Station could have made a great public market. Instead Portland tore it down and now has a wastewater pump. Sexy.

Crane and pile of dirt spotted at UNE

If we want an accurate depiction of Portland we should just show them an empty parking lot or a building being torn down.

I like the rust tile look at the new back entry way.

This is such a great example of rehabilitation and in-fill. Redfern really leads the way.

That's development in Portland for you. Add that to the list of "never happening".

Better yet, rip the ugly garage down and completely start over.

And this doesn't include Westbrook, which will add a small portion. But they did just put out RFP's for downtown lots, so who knows. Row Row is a big question mark IMHO.

Looks like I'll need to get in there and stir the pot a little ::evil grin::

Westbrook is eager to develop. They'll take the projects Portland will dilly-dally on. Hopefully any developments here are a minimum of 4 stories. Will draw some additional restaurants and retail, which residents want. Gorham residents also enjoy coming to Westbrook too. It'll create some nice...

I realize I can be quite vociferous, but I'm passionate about Portland and its growth. Saddened by it's mistakes, but hopeful for great things to come.

Are you asking why create more density around/within Portland? Because rural and suburban sprawl destroys fragile ecosystems, habitats, leads to misguided "wildlife creep", and has a larger impact on global warming/carbon footprints. Building UP is always better than building OUT. Maine also...

Last Chance Gulch. Essentially just a small street closed to vehicle traffic. St. Augustine has something similar (St. George Street) and that area that's closed to traffic too.

Hard to believe NONE of these buildings were worth saving or are in any worse condition than what's in the Old Port. Meanwhile - space at the future One & Two Portland Square, Canal, Top of the Old Port, etc (where the buildings weren't valuable at all) could have housed One City Center et al...
