Faced with many oompeting and well-marked attractions, too many times the motorist will completely avoid Portland or will reach the bay wharves only after con­ siderable effort and inquiry. In a direct attack on this problem, the City has erected 30 directional signs indicating the route to the waterfront and wharves. Introductory signs have been set up on the major roads (US 1 from the south, Interstate 295 from the north, Brighton Avenue, etc.) at points near the city limits. With directional signs at key or confusing intersections, the motorist is carried to the Commercial FOR OLD FORT GORGES - Marine Reserve engineers may b last channel enabling small craft to land Street wharves. at all tides.

  • Principal Fortifications of the United States (1870–1875)
    Principal Fortifications of the United States (1870–1875) uring the late 18th century and through much of the 19th century, army forts were constructed throughout the United States to defend the growing nation from a variety of threats, both perceived and real. Seventeen of these sites are depicted in a collection painted especially for Dthe U.S. Capitol by Seth Eastman. Born in 1808 in Brunswick, Maine, Eastman found expression for his artistic skills in a military career. After graduating from the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, where offi­ cers-in-training were taught basic drawing and drafting techniques, Eastman was posted to forts in Wisconsin and Minnesota before returning to West Point as assistant teacher of drawing. Eastman also established himself as an accomplished landscape painter, and between 1836 and 1840, 17 of his oils were exhibited at the National Academy of Design in New York City. His election as an honorary member of the academy in 1838 further enhanced his status as an artist. Transferred to posts in Florida, Minnesota, and Texas in the 1840s, Eastman became interested in the Native Americans of these regions and made numerous sketches of the people and their customs. This experience prepared him for his next five years in Washington, D.C., where he was assigned to the commissioner of Indian Affairs and illus­ trated Henry Rowe Schoolcraft’s important six-volume Historical and Statistical Information Respecting the History, Condition, and Prospects of the Indian Tribes of the United States. During this time Eastman also assisted Captain Montgomery C. Meigs, superintendent of the Capitol Brevet Brigadier General Seth Eastman.

Telehealth is ok for routine monitoring of conditions and can cut down on number of mainland visits but isn’t a replacement for emergency medicine. Technology can be cumbersome and less efficient especially for private practice or if end users don’t have comfort with technology. Biggest challenge for smallest islands, telemedicine is not always useful because mainland providers aren't always on board and generally, going to the mainland just feels more productive if a person is able to get on the boat. Generally, people need and want a face to face with a medical provider.
