Additional Property Attributes

Former cannery proposed for redevelopment as retail, hospitality and community arts/science resource center.

Former Use: Prior to 1908, the Site was primarily commercial and included manufacturing, fish processing, and retail space on wharfs. The Seacoast Canning Company was established in 1899 and housed in the American Can Building beginning in 1908. Parcel 10/10A was known as Paine�s Wharf from 1884 until 1908. It included a grocery, restaurant, coal house, machine shop, mustard mill, warehouse, and pipe and tin shops. The brick 2-story structure with a concrete pier remains vacant on the parcel, awaiting major renovations as a multi-use residential and commercial building. This parcel is the only portion of the Site that has a structure remaining. Parcel 5, north of Parcel 10/10A was a grocery store and bakery in the late 1880�s, but was converted to a Machine Shop in the late 1800�s to early 1900�s. For a few decades it was a tobacco and bottling plant ca. 1911 - 1949. Currently, it is a flat, gravel parking area with a dumpster used by a local pizza restaurant. Parcel 15, southwest of Parcel 10/10A was used for a variety of industries over the years. In the 1880�s it was a restaurant and laundry. In the late 1980�s it housed the Marble Works and G.L. Boyden & Company wood yard. For several years, it remained undeveloped, and used as a wood yard. Currently, it is an open field with no standing structures. Parcel 16, south of Parcel 10/10A has historically been used as a steamship wharf until the mid-1900�s when it was occupied by the Maine Central Railroad Freight House. Currently, it is a vacant, grass-covered slope adjacent to the coastline. Parcel 19 is south of Parcel 10/10A and Parcel 16. It had been the home of a sardine factory since Young & Smith started the business in the 1880�s. Although ownership changed over the next century, the facility continued to process seafood. The wharf was badly burned in 1921 when it was owned by Seacoast Canning Company. The lot is currently vacant.
