The Brunswick Commercial Historic District was listed in the National Register on January 12, 2016 for its historic commercial and architectural importance. The section of Maine Street that lies between the Cabot Mill on the banks of the Androscoggin River, and the First Parish Church in downtown Brunswick served as the primary commercial business district for the region from the early-nineteenth century through the mid-twentieth century. The Brunswick Commercial Historic District consists of most of the northern half of that historic area, between Mason and School Streets.

Between 1924 and 1926 the Penobscot County town of Lincoln, Maine experienced a rapid and extensive growth of industrial fur farming. During these years Dr. Frank F. Gordon a dentist in Bangor, and his brother Dr. Fred E. Gordon, an optometrist in Lincoln, developed numerous fox farms - or ranches as they were called ? in Lincoln, and to a lesser extent in other areas of Maine and New Hampshire. Each ranch contained as many as 200 fox in outdoor pens surrounded by a wooden palisade, a house for the caretaker, and an observation tower.

The barn in Belgrade, Maine that the Foster brothers, F. C. and E. L. Foster, built on their farm around the turn of the twentieth century exhibits a transition from a traditional, timber-framed, mixed-use barn to a more modern building focused on dairy farming. The transition is seen in the spatial plan of the barn, the equipment utilized in the building, and in the materials used in constructing and framing the structure. Each of these features reflects the family?s increased focus on dairy farming.

St. Andre's Roman Catholic parish is a complex containing five buildings (church, school, convent, rectory and garage) located just southeast of downtown Biddeford. Erected starting in 1900, three of the four principal buildings - the rectory, convent and church - contribute to the significance of the historic district.

The Edmund E. Goodwin House in the Springvale village of Sanford, Maine was constructed in 1899 and is a late example of a well-detailed Queen Anne style residential structure.

The Ella R. Hodgkins Intermediate School was placed in the National Register of Historic Places at the local level for its association with educational planning and development in Augusta and for its architectural design. The Hodgkins School was the third school built as part of a decade long school building program that updated and consolidated Augusta?s schools to accommodate the post-World War II baby boom. The school is also significant architecturally as an intact example of a modern, mid-century school building following the most recent trends in design and construction.

The 28.68 acre Great Chebeague Golf Club Historic District on the west side of Chebeague Island is a links-like course which was first laid out by George P. Spalding and Bertrand R.T. Collins, summer residents of the island, in 1920. Originally designed out as a six-hole course, the course was expanded to nine holes by 1923. The formation and evolution of the Club was fueled by summer residents who had begun to season on the islands of Casco Bay at the end of the 19th century.

The Norton's Corner School House has been part of the history of the town of Willimantic as one of the first public buildings in town. Built to serve School District #2, the Norton's Corner School is one of only two extant one-room school houses in this remote Piscataquis County community of just over 150 people. Probably constructed circa 1882, this was most likely the second building to be erected as a school in the town, and it was used continually for that purpose until 1965.

The Lewiston Mills and Water Power Systems Historic District reflects the significance of Lewiston as an important textile manufacturing center in Maine and Northern New England from 1850 to 1950. The district?s complexes, stores, schools, commercial, industrial and social buildings and infrastructure of the predominately cotton textile industry were the stimuli for Lewiston?s development as a city, its economic success and subsequent population increases, including the prolific immigration of French-Canadians.

The Whitney Farm is a moderately sized farm of 206 acres in Appleton and Searsmont, Maine with a long history of agricultural use. Established circa 1825 by John Tole, the house, ell, barn and shed, poultry houses, cooper shop, corn crib and ice house have worked in concert to support the farm?s residents even as the demography and the products of the farm changed. The most significant evolution at the farm occurred circa 1925 when the Whitney family started to raise poultry in greater numbers and constructed or altered several buildings on the property for that purpose.
