A pretty neat way to see what one person has done with re-using old buildings along Congress Street. There is a narrow elevator that is used to access this space (it looks like a tube). It's located in the heart of the City, above the Portland Public Market House, next to the Public Library, and in Monument Square, the City's miniature version of a central business district (compare to Portland's scale of a financial district in Boston's downtown....most of the touristy activities and restaurants and shops are a few blocks southeast in the 'Old Port').
When built, the building framed in this picture was the tallest in New England (Portland's first "skyscraper" at ten stories tall).
