Playa Higgins

La playa Higgins es una pequeña playa ubicada en el estado de Maine, en Estados Unidos. Se encuentra ubicada en la ciudad de Scarborough en el condado de Cumberland. La playa está al norte de Prouts Neck y Old Orchard Beach y al sur del Parque Estatal de Crescent Beach. Mide aproximadamente 1 km de largo y está a unos 11 km al sur de Portland y 177 km al norte de Boston. Está limitada al suroeste por la cala Thunder, y por el río Spurwink al noreste. Esta pequeña comunidad costera tiene alrededor de 300 casas. La comunidad tiene dos tabernas (The Breakers y Higgins Beach Inn), que están abiertas durante la temporada de verano. La playa tiene acceso público, pero poco aparcamiento público. En 2010, la ciudad de Scarborough compró un pequeño aparcamiento para 75 vehículos. La playa Higgins ha logrado conservar sus características de pequeña ciudad, algo que las grandes playas de la zona, tales como Old Orchard han perdido a cambio de la comercialización y el turismo.

Hog Island (Lincoln County, Maine)

Hog Island is an island spanning 330 acres (130 ha) located in Muscongus Bay in Bremen, Maine, United States at the end of Keene Neck Road. It is a part of the Todd Wildlife Sanctuary, which includes an additional 30 acres (12 ha) on the mainland across from the island, as well as the current home to the Audubon Camp in Maine operated by the Seabird Restoration Program (Project Puffin) of the National Audubon Society. History Hog Island has an agricultural history analogous to that of most Hog Islands. In the late nineteenth century, it was a summer home to The Point Breeze Inn and Bungalows, a recreational settlement. By 1910, Hog Island became a project of Mabel Loomis Todd, original editor of Emily Dickinson’s poetry. Todd purchased tracts of the island to save its timber from clearcutting. Together with her husband, David Peck Todd (head astronomer at Amherst College), they built a rustic summer camp there that was occupied by family members and their friends into the 1960s. The only Todd child, daughter Millicent Todd Bingham, negotiated with John Baker of the National Audubon Society to have a nature study facility established on the island at the more developed Point Breeze site. The Audubon Nature Camp opened in the summer of 1936. The staff included Roger Tory Peterson, noted author of the new Peterson Field Guide series and director Carl W. Buchheister, who would go on to serve as president of the National Audubon Society from 1959 to 1967. Hog Island Audubon Camp From late May through September, Audubon's Seabird Institute/Project Puffin runs a six-day residential ornithology and environmental education programs for adults, teens, families, environmental educators and Audubon leaders.

It is a two-story brick structure, with a low-pitch hip roof that has a denticulated cornice. The front (west-facing) facade is three bays wide, with the center entrance sheltered by a portico supported by round columns in front and pilasters in back. The portico has a bracketed and dentillated cornice, details repeated on flanking single-story bay windows. Other windows on the house have granite sills and lintels.

Holman Day House

The Holman Day House is a historic house at 2 Goff Street in Auburn, Maine. Built in 1895, it is one of the state's finest examples of Queen Anne architecture, and is further notable as the home of Maine author Holman Day. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978. Description and history The Day House is set at the northeast corner of Court and Goff Streets, overlooking Auburn's downtown area. It is a 2+1⁄2-story wood-frame structure, roughly rectangular in plan, with three-story tower at the corner and a two-story wall connecting the main house to a carriage barn. It has a hip roof, with a two-story projecting gable section to the left, and a smaller gable at the front, to the right of the tower. The tower is capped by a conical roof, with swag panels between the levels. The front-facing gable has a small Palladian window, while the left projection has a wide two-story bay window, with an oculus window in the gable. A porch extends across the front and around the side, and is ornately decorated, with a turned balustrade and posts, and a decorative trellis-like valance. The interior is similarly richly decorated in high quality materials. The house was built in 1895 for Holman Day and his wife, Helen Rowell Gerald, by his father-in-law. At the time, Day was working primarily as a journalist for newspapers in Auburn and Lewiston. It was here that he wrote much of his poetry and fiction, building a reputation for his colorful depictions of life in Maine. For 44 years (1975–2019) the Holman Day House had been used by (then owner) Dr. Thomas Johnson as a psychological services center providing support in the areas of health, family and school psychology. In 2019 the Holman Day House was transitioned back into the single family residence for its new owners. The authors of Maine's Maine's Historic Places refer to 2 Goff as follows " The Holman Day House is unquestionably one of the finest Queen Anne Style wooden residences in the state.This is so not only in terms of the quality of the construction, but also in terms of the architectural detail. The interior is of similar high style." The National Park service approved the modification of the Carriage House hayloft into a hayloft library and conference center. The house has been featured on the cover of Victorian Homes.It is also featured as an example of the Queen Anne tower House in Historic Maine Homes: 300 Years of Great Homes by Christopher Glass and Brian Vanden Brink.

Hope Island (Maine)

Hope Island is a privately owned island in Casco Bay near the city of Portland, Maine, United States. It is a part of the Town of Chebeague Island, in Cumberland County. The 89-acre (36 ha) island was considered for an LNG terminal. Developer John Cacoulidis and his wife Phyllis bought the island in 1993. In addition to the existing 10,000 sq. ft. house built in 1913 with nine bedrooms, seven bathrooms and five fireplaces, the Cacoulidises built there a separate 3,300-square-foot guest house, a boathouse with an apartment, and roads looping the island. The island was since purchased in 2021 by entrepreneur and motivational speaker Ed Mylett. Since purchasing, Ed has renovated an ocean front saloon, a new 10,000 sq. ft house, gym, chicken coop, horse pastures, a private golf course, greenhouses, multiple guest homes, and structure to honor his father who was the basis for Ed’s best selling book “The Power of One More.” See also List of islands of Maine References
Horace Munroe House

The Horace Munroe House is an historic house at 123 Pleasant Street in Auburn, Maine. Built in 1899–1900 to a design by William R. Miller, it is one of Auburn's finest examples of Queen Anne architecture. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980. It is now the Munroe Inn, a bed and breakfast inn. Description and history The Munroe House is located in a residential area just southwest of downtown Auburn, at the northwest corner of Pleasant and Drummond Streets. It is a rambling 2+1⁄2-story wood-frame structure, with a roughly rectangular shape that is somewhat obscured by the number of gables, porches, and projecting sections that characterize the Queen Anne style of architecture. A single-story hip-roofed porch extends across the front, supported by groups of Doric columns. A gabled section projects slightly above the stairs leading up to it from Pleasant Street. Two turret-like sections project from the left side of the house (facing Drummond), one with an open second floor porch, with Doric columns supporting a garlanded entablature. The house was designed by Lewiston architect William R. Miller, and was built in 1899-1900 for the mother of Horace Munroe, and was the latter's home for much of his life. Munroe's father Noble was one of the founders of the shoe manufacturing industry in Auburn, one of its dominant businesses of the period. The house was sold out of the family in the 1950s, and was run for a time as a boarding house. It has been used intermittently as a bed and breakfast inn since 1999.

Bangor International Airport

Der Bangor International Airport ist der Flughafen der Stadt Bangor im US-Bundesstaat Maine. Lage und Verkehrsanbindung Der Bangor International Airport liegt vier Kilometer westlich des Stadtzentrums von Bangor. Östlich des Flughafens verläuft die Interstate 95, südöstlich die Interstate 395 und südlich der U.S. Highway 2. Der Flughafen wird von den Community Connector Buslinien angefahren. Geschichte Der regelmäßige Flugverkehr auf dem 1927 als Godfrey Field eröffneten Flugplatz begann 1931. Boston-Maine Airways, eine durch Boston and Maine Railroad und Bangor and Aroostook Railroad gegründete Fluggesellschaft, richtete eine Verbindung zwischen Bangor und Boston, mit Zwischenlandung in Portland, ein. Ab 1937 verfügte der Flugplatz über eine Befeuerung und konnte auch Nachtflüge abfertigen. Noch vor dem Eintritt der Vereinigten Staaten in den Zweiten Weltkrieg wurde der Flugplatz als Bangor Army Air Field an das United States Army Air Corps übertragen und für militärische Flüge nach Europa genutzt. 1942 wurde der Name in Dow Army Airfield und 1947, nach Gründung der United States Air Force, in Dow Air Force Base geändert. Die heutige Start- und Landebahn wurde 1958 errichtet, um den Flughafen für den Boeing B-52-Bomber nutzen zu können und war damals die längste Bahn östlich des Mississippi. Parallel zur militärischen Nutzung führte Northeast Airlines in den 1950er und 1960er Jahren Linienflüge nach Boston und New York durch. 1968 wurde die Dow Air Force Base geschlossen und im folgenden Jahr durch die Stadt Bangor als Bangor International Airport wiedereröffnet. In den 1970er und 1980er Jahren wurde der Flughafen vor allem als Zwischenlandung auf Verbindungen zwischen der amerikanischen Westküste und Zielen in Europa, Mexiko und der Karibik genutzt – während das Flugzeug aufgetankt wurde, konnten die Passagiere die Einreise- und Zollkontrolle passieren. Auch Condor Flugdienst und LTU nutzten in dieser Zeit den Flughafen Bangor. Im Golfkrieg, Irakkrieg und während des SFOR-Einsatzes kehrten mehr als eine halbe Million Soldaten über den Flughafen Bangor in die USA zurück. Ab 2005 war der Flughafen einer der Notlandeplätze für das Space Shuttle. Betrieb Am Bangor International Airport bestehen Linienflugverbindungen zu Zielen innerhalb der Vereinigten Staaten. Da der Flughafen Bangor für Flüge aus Europa der erste erreichbare US-Flughafen ist, werden Flüge bei Terrorismus-Verdacht, medizinischen Notfällen, schlechter Witterung, technischen Zwischenfällen oder Problemen mit betrunkenen Passagieren häufig zum Flughafen Bangor umgeleitet. Aus diesem Grund wird Bangor auch bei Auslieferungsflügen von Kurz- und Mittelstreckenflugzeugen aus Europa als Tankstopp angeflogen.

Indian Island Light

Indian Island Light is a lighthouse on Indian Island on the eastern side of the entrance to Rockport Harbor, Maine. It was first established in 1850. The present structure was built in 1875. It was deactivated in 1934 and is now a private residence. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places as Indian Island Light Station on March 23, 1988. Description and history The town of Rockport is located on the western shore of Penobscot Bay in central Maine. Its harbor is sheltered by Beauchamp Point, a peninsula extending roughly southward. Indian Island is, at 4.5 acres (1.8 ha), the largest of a short chain of islands that extend south from the point. Indian Island Light is located at the southern tip of Indian Island. The station consists of a tower, keeper's house, shed, and oil house. The tower is a squat tapered square brick structure, surmounted by a square lantern house ringed by a catwalk and railing. A small workroom projects from the south side of the tower, sheltered by a gabled roof. The keeper's house is set just south of the tower; it is a 1-1/2 story structure, with the original 1850 brick block augmented by a frame addition. East of the tower is a large shed, consisting of two gable-roofed structures joined at a gable end; one is finished in board-and-batten siding, the other in shingles. Northwest of the tower stands a small brick oil house. The light station was authorized and established in 1850, and was the principal aid to navigation marking the entrance to Rockport harbor, which was then a major shipbuilding and lime rock processing center. The light was originally mounted on top of the keeper's house, with a fourth-order Fresnel lens installed in 1856. The light was deactivated in 1859 but restarted in 1861. In 1874-75 the present tower was built, with the oil house added in 1904. The property was sold by the United States Coast Guard in 1932, with the light deactivated in 1934. The light station is in private ownership. See also National Register of Historic Places listings in Knox County, Maine References
