A little about Portland...

A historic and thriving city, Portland is the largest city in Maine and the county seat of Cumberland county. The city’s seal fittingly depicts a phoenix rising from ashes, alluding to the Portland’s motto "I will rise again," which refers to the city's triumphant recovery from the four devastating fires in its past. The city is home to a rich history and a thriving business and cultural scene, making it the ideal place to live for the young and old alike. 

The Native Americans who first inhabited it once called the Portland peninsula Machigonne, meaning Great Neck. The British then, in 1632, established the area as a trading and fishing settlement. As industry in America grew, the Portland area, then called Falmouth, became a hub for shipping and trading companies. After the citizens of Falmouth decided to form a separate town in Falmouth Neck, Portland was officially incorporated in 1786.

As of recently, the city has seen renewed interest in its fishing industry, exporting, and the redevelopment of Portland's working waterfront. These renewed interests have revitalized the city. The city of Portland also places its constant attention to the preservation of its historical landmarks. It is because of this that the city has successfully been able to incorporate the character of its past with a more current, modern urban environment. Portland is also home to a thriving Arts District.
