Property Highlights

Former Use: The Site is known as the former Old Town Canoe manufacturing facility located at the northeastern corner of Middle Street in the City of Old Town, Penobscot County, Maine. The Site is improved with one building which is described as the Primary Manufacturing Building and was utilized for the manufacture and storage of canoes, kayaks, paddles, and miscellaneous watercraft accessories. Remaining portions of the Site consist of asphalt-paved and crushed-gravel driveways/parking areas, grassed areas, and limited landscaping. Based on available information, the Site consisted of unimproved land prior to circa 1850. The Site and vicinity were improved with various buildings including, a shoe factory, coal storage yard, school, church, residential dwellings, numerous outbuildings, and railroad tracks beginning in the mid to late-1800s. Old Town Canoe purchased a majority of these buildings in 1902 and operated their manufacturing facility at the property. The buildings were interconnected and/or demolished at various times from circa 1902 to 1999. Old Town Canoe operated a canoe, kayak, paddle, and miscellaneous watercraft accessory manufacturing facility at the Site from 1902 until the business relocated to another facility in 2009. The Site has remained vacant to the present date, since closing in 2009.
