Size: 6.5 linear ft. + 1 oversized folder Administrative Note: The Casco Bay Island Development Association (CBIDA) was originally organized on Peaks Island in 1959 as the Island Development Association for purposes including island beautification and development, social welfare, education, and collective representation of island interests, among others. The organization soon expanded to include representatives from all of the Casco Bay islands including Peaks Island, Long Island, Cliff Island, Chebeague Island, Cushing Island, Great Diamond Island and Little Diamond Island, and was renamed accordingly. Early efforts included island clean ups, prioritization of island issues, promotion of island development, and improvement of ferry piers and service. Shortly thereafter, the CBIDA floated a bond issue in support of the purchase of former government land on Peaks Island from Peter Cioffi. Over time, that project led to the development of the Back Shore and infrastructure improvements on Peaks Island, as well as set asides for public land there. Other notable projects include leading the effort to create the Casco Bay Island Transit District to ensure more efficient and reliable ferry service; influencing the development of island zoning standards adopted by the City of Portland; achieving limits to the development of Diamond Cove at the former Fort McKinley; participation in various coalitions to preserve the Portland working waterfront and water quality in Casco Bay; regular publication of Casco Bay newsletter and boating brochure.

Rather than Congress Street, the answer now is more likely to be the "Old Port Exchange". This is the area of Exchange Street, below Middle Street, and Fore Street at the foot of Exchange. The area dates back to the earliest days of Portland and early chroniclers of Portland's history described it as the most heavily populated part of town. Author William Willis, in his HISTORY OF PORTLAND 1632-1864, refers to the "very valuable tract lying between Exchange and Lime streets and extending from Middle Street to low water mark". The property was owned by Deacon Milk, who died in The Mariners' Church 1772, having lived in a house which stood on only whole blocks, but entire streets, they are generally finished wiihin after a the left bank at th e corner of Fore and massive warehouses, lofty churches, splendid superior style with our richest native woods, Exchange streets, overlooking the harbor (it mansions, ancestral homes, in .

In yet another abortive attempt to settle the location of a new Casco Bay Terminal, the Portland Planning Board failed to act on a choice of Hobson's Wharf (at the foot of High St.); or the combined Custom House - Portland Pier site. Unanimous rejection of Hobson's Wharf was voiced by island residents, supplemented by peti­ tions signed by many who could not attend the August 7 public hearing. Custom House was favored more as the lesser of two evils, than an ideal solution in itself. Underlying the testimony was a repeated sug­ gestion that the City look again at the Easterly side of Long Wharf which might be negotiated with owner Tony DeMillo - who, it is understood, ,-1 ,-1 - might be willing to move his Marina to the westerly m side in a more protected area.

  • Peaks Island Ferry Landside Operations Study
    Portland – Peaks Island Ferry Landside Operations Study Task 2 – Projected Future Conditions and Impacts of Increased Demand Introduction Based upon the existing operations and ridership patterns of the Peaks Island Ferry, presented in Task 1, Task 2 will explore the projected future conditions and the potential impacts associated with increased demand on landside operations on Peaks Island. Generally, projected future demand is expected to continue to grow, particularly passenger trips during the peak season, and vehicle trips during the off‐ peak season. The subsequent sections will explore detailed projections for passenger and vehicular growth on the Peaks Island Ferry as the basis for expected future baseline demand. With high ridership already exhibited under existing conditions and often constrained by vessel capacity, and as ridership continues to grow, several operational changes have been proposed to address projected future baseline conditions. These efforts, in combination with the future baseline projections, will form the basis of an assessment of potential future impacts of increased ridership demand. Future Operations Casco Bay Island Transit District (CBITD) has identified several proposals for future operations to manage the expected increase in passenger and vehicular demand. The most significant proposal to address the expected future demand is the planned construction of a new vessel to replace the aging Machigonne II, the vessel that currently provides the majority of trips operating between Peaks Island and mainland Portland, Maine. CBITD has also identified several potential schedule modifications that could more effectively allocate resources for efficient passenger movement. New Vessel Characteristics In March 2019, the CBITD Board of Directors voted to approve further investigation of a new passenger/vehicle transport vessel to replace the Machigonne II, which has been in service since 1987.
