Additional Property Attributes

Former Use: Front Street is a municipally-owned right-of way, which extends along Belfast�s waterfront district, generally running parallel to the Passagassawakeag River (Belfast Harbor). Properties currently located along Front Street are primarily commercial and light industrial (e.g., restaurants, retail shops, marine facilities, boatyards, warehouses, and other commercial uses) along with a few small residential properties. Front Street is not improved with any buildings or structures, except for road signage, electric and telecommunication poles and overhead utilities, subsurface sanitary sewer, storm sewer, and municipal water lines. Properties located along Front Street were historically utilized for mixed residential, industrial, and working waterfront uses. The Site vicinity was affected by both of the major historical destructive fire events that occurred in downtown Belfast during the mid-1800s. Subsurface investigations conducted in the immediate vicinity of the Front Street ROW have identified extensive use of non-native fill materials of variable composition and thickness, containing urban fill constituents (i.e., bricks, coal, ash, metal, glass, etc), as well as elevated concentrations of metals and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). The presence of these urban fill constituents are likely the result of wood and/or coal combustion byproducts, due to historical fires and/or industrial activities that occurred at the Site and vicinity. Known petroleum-impacted soil and groundwater has been discovered beneath Front Street. Historical fires and land filling operations, former railroad use, former junkyard/dump, former bulk fuel storage facilities, and various industrial and working waterfront operations, including canneries, poultry processing facilities, boatyards, and lumberyards that historically operated in the Site vicinity, may have also impacted subsurface conditions along the Front Street ROW.
