About Portland

Portland, Maine is a luminous and irresistibly vibrant city situated on a peninsula in Casco Bay on the southern Maine coast, approximately 175 kilometres north of Boston and 50 kilometres south of Bangor, and is the largest city in Maine and one of the most celebrated and beloved small cities in the entire United States — a compact, walkable, and extraordinarily livable community of historic redbrick architecture, working waterfront, world-class restaurants, and a creative energy that has made it a national model for small-city renaissance and a destination that draws visitors, transplants, and food pilgrims from across the country in numbers that belie its modest population.

Portland's Old Port district is the beating heart of the city's appeal — a magnificently preserved neighbourhood of nineteenth-century granite and redbrick commercial buildings whose cobblestoned streets now house an extraordinary concentration of independent restaurants, craft breweries, boutiques, and galleries that have made Portland one of the most celebrated food and drink destinations in the United States. The city has earned a per-capita restaurant density that rivals cities many times its size, with a culinary scene driven by the extraordinary bounty of the Gulf of Maine — lobster, oysters, sea urchin, halibut, and jonah crab landed daily at the working waterfront — and by a generation of talented and ambitious chefs who have chosen Portland's quality of life and creative community over the pressures of larger markets.

Portland's maritime heritage is central to its identity, with Casco Bay's island-studded waters, the working fishing fleet at the Portland Fish Pier, and the beloved Casco Bay Lines ferry service connecting the city to the Calendar Islands giving daily life a salt-air authenticity that is deeply and genuinely felt. The Portland Head Light in nearby Cape Elizabeth — commissioned by George Washington in 1790 and one of the most photographed lighthouses in the world — is the iconic symbol of Maine's rugged and beautiful coastline and one of the most visited historic sites in New England.

The city has a rich cultural and literary heritage as the birthplace of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, whose childhood home on Congress Street is a beautifully preserved National Historic Landmark, and supports an outstanding arts infrastructure anchored by the Portland Museum of Art — the finest art museum in Maine, with a strong collection of American and Maine artists including Winslow Homer, Andrew Wyeth, and Edward Hopper — the Portland Symphony Orchestra, and the thriving arts district along Congress Street. The Eastern Promenade, a sweeping hilltop park overlooking Casco Bay and the islands beyond, offers one of the most beautiful urban views in New England.

With its world-class food and craft brewing scene, magnificent working waterfront, beautifully preserved Old Port, outstanding art museum, stunning Casco Bay setting, and a creative and welcoming community spirit that has made it one of the most admired and imitated small cities in America, Portland is a Maine treasure of extraordinary vitality, beauty, and enduring coastal charm.

Its airport code is PWM (Portland International Jetport).
