Additional Property Attributes

The property is located on a major road corridor in Aroostook County with high visibility and significant acreage for a wide variety of commercial development options. The property is currently developed with a 10,500-square foot two-story commercial building.

Former Use: The property consists of two historic parcels consisting of a one-acre roadside lot and eleven acres of undeveloped field and woodlands. Both parcels were originally part of a large farm through the 1970s. The property was first developed as a truck service garage by Leon Little in 1978 and later expanded to include a retail store, parts room, wash bay, office and storage space. The property was acquired by Ervin and Robbie Farrar in 2010 and sold to the Houlton Band of Maliseet Indians following assessment through the Brownfields program.
Additional assessment and remedial activities were subsequently conducted at the Site though the Houlton Band of Maliseet Indians 128(a) Tribal Response Program in coordination with MEDEP VRAP. The Site is now available for redevelopment.
