Abstract

Ken Macgowan is searching for tenants of Custom House Wharf in Portland. Commercial fishermen cite the need for berthing space, and marine-related businesses fear development will push them out. Mayor Karen Geraghty, a strong advocate for the working waterfront, says current zoning laws are essential. The Waterfront Task Force found that 6 of the city's 14 piers needed repairs ranging from $100,000 to $500,000. Details, related "From the editor" column.
