  • Neighborhood Overviews
    NEIGHBORHOOD OVERVIEWS (Sources: The following text is largely quoted from Leslie Donovan and Kim Withers Brengle, “A Preservation Plan for the City of Gloucester, Massachusetts,” 1990. Supplemental information was added from the Gloucester Development Team’s Land Marks; Architecture and Preservation in Gloucester, 1979; an unpublished manuscript, “Artists’ Communities in Gloucester, 1750-1948,” by Wendy Frontiero, 1998; and comments from the Gloucester Archives Committee.) CENTRAL GLOUCESTER Central Gloucester is roughly bounded by the Inner Harbor, the Annisquam River, and Route 128. This commercial and civic center of the City of Gloucester, located west of the inner harbor, is the nucleus of the Central Gloucester neighborhood and the City. The central business district runs along Main and Rogers Streets and is characterized by two- to four-story masonry structures. Immediately to the west is the civic center, which is composed of the City’s public buildings, by far the largest group of substantial buildings in Gloucester. The greatest concentration of industrial buildings is also found in Central Gloucester, located along the waterfront, near the commercial areas, and along Maplewood Avenue. Central Gloucester is extremely densely developed compared to the rest of Gloucester. Residential buildings are typically single-family and multi-family structures of wood-frame construction. A fishing colony established by the Dorchester Company at Stage Fort lasted only from 1623- 1626. It was not until the late 1630s that Cape Ann attracted a large enough number of permanent settlers to warrant incorporation as a town in 1642 under the Massachusetts Bay Colony. The name of the new town may have come from the recent birth of a new Duke of Gloucester.

Department of the Interior VISITOR SATISFACTION AND VISITOR UNDERSTANDING OF THE SIGNIFICANCE OF ACADIA NATIONAL PARK: 2006 Meeting the Requirements of the Governnient Performance and Results Act Charles Jacobi, Natural Resource Specialist November 2006 Acadia National Park Natural Resources Report Number 2006-8 SUMMARY In 2006, the National Park Service measured visitor satisfaction and visitor understanding of the significance ofthe park they were visiting through a brief visitor survey. Acadia National Park participated in this survey, which was intended to meet the requirements of the Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA). The response rate for the survey was 31 %. In a brief report, the University of Idaho Cooperative Park Studies Unit compiled the results of visitor evaluations of park facilities, services, and recreation opportunities (GPRA goal Hal) at Acadia. Ninety-five percent of visitors were satisfied with the overall quality of visitor facilities, services, and recreation opportunities offered by Acadia. This was equal to the 2006 GPRA servicewide goal of 95%. Responses to questions about the quality of specific facilities or services showed there is limited room for improvement. Visitor responses to the question about the significance of Acadia National Park (GPRA goal Hb 1) were compared to significance statements identified in the park's GPRA plan. According to servicewide standards for evaluating answers to this question (visitor identification of at least one park significance item), 96% of Acadia visitors understand something about the significance . of Acadia. This is well above the 2006 GPRA service wide goal of 87%.
