Portland - Cumberland County

Portland is known for its salty air, cobblestone charm, and the sound of footsteps on the winding streets of the Old Port. The Old Port District, with historic brick buildings and working piers, anchors our downtown and attracts both locals and visitors. Expect to smell fresh-baked treats along Exchange and Fore Streets and hear laughter from outdoor benches near Monument Square. Here, indie gift shops, artisan boutiques, cozy coffee and tea spots, and local bakeries line the narrow alleys. In this community, local bonds us together. Our small businesses help keep the waterfront lively, the sidewalks bustling, and the local economy rooted in people. We invite you to join Portland’s circle of makers and storytellers to help us grow the heart of this community.
