It began on Commercial Street near the present-day location of Hobson’s Landing (until it closed in 2016, the Rufus Deering Lumber Yard) and spread to John BundyBrown’s

Portland's waterfront has been central to the cultural and economic life of our community for more than 350 years, but the historic buildings and infrastructure are threatened by climate change. Read Julie Larry's history of the waterfront and assessment of these risks on our blog - link in bio! (Image: An 1852 map of Portland shows the construction of Commercial Street on the Waterfront before the land between Fore and Commercial Streets was completely filled in.) . . #historicpreservation #climatechange #sustainability #portlandmaine #portlandme #localhistory #workingwaterfront #portlandwaterfront Goodbye baby blue carpet and hello restored hardwood floors! We are pretty excited about the Safford House’s new look- what do youthink?
There's a lot of discussion about how architecture & design can help us fight the coronavirus pandemic. Some of the design solutions to create healthier buildings in the 19th century can still been seen around Portland today - and many of those ideas are just as relevant as they were over 100 years ago! Read more on our blog - link in bio. Pictured is 59 State Street (Miller & Mayo, 1913). The "h" shape of the building improved ventilation with outward facing windows for all residents. . . #historicpreservation #architecture #healthybuildings #portlandmaine #covid19 #thisplacematters #19thcenturyarchitecture In honor of Pride Month, read about Frannie Peabody, one of the founders of Landmarks who dedicated herself to AIDS activism and started the Frannie Peabody Center.

Ruby worked as a hack driver, a trader, and a messenger for the Customs House. He helped form the Maine Anti-Slavery Society in 1834 and the Portland Union Anti-Slavery Society in 1841. He traveled frequently to New York in conjunction with his work with black anti-slavery societies. In 1832, he drove abolitionist William Lloyd Garrison around Portland and hosted a meeting between Garrison and black leaders. His son, William Wilberforce Ruby, was the fireman who first alerted the city to the start of the Great Fire of 1866 and led his community to protect the Abyssinian's roof during the fire.

Check out our stories and the links in our bio to learn more about important places of Portland's African-American history, including the Abyssinian Meeting House (pictured) and much more. Built in 1828, the Abyssinian is the third-oldest standing African-American meeting house in the United States. It was the center of social and political life for Portland’s African-American community in the 19th century. During the Great Fire, the Abyssinian's community covered the roof in wet blankets to save it. The building served as a church, a segregated public school, and a hall for concerts, dinners and entertainment. Its members and preachers included former enslaved people, leaders of the Underground Railroad movement, and outspoken advocates for the abolition of slavery. . . #historicpreservation #blackhistory #thisplacematters #portlandmaine Join us in taking the time to listen, taking the time to learn.
