visit our site Portland's brownstone quarries have delivered their legacy to the architecture of cities up and down the east coast. New York's famous brownstones all owe a debt to Portland; and the quarries can still be visited, a vestige of the town's thriving past. In town, the late 19th century Trinity Episcopal Church was made of the locally-quarried brownstone. Another architectural legacy are the two octagonal houses on Route 66. A nature walk through the cranberry bogs is maintained by the local Audubon Society. |
