Additional Property Attributes

Former Use: The Site was formerly improved with one building, which was abated of hazardous building materials and demolished by the City of Lewiston in February 2016 (utilizing non-Brownfields funding sources). Therefore, the Site is currently vacant, but was most recently occupied by CarQuest, an automotive parts sales and distribution/storage facility. The Site was reportedly improved with 4 residential dwellings and tenement houses during the mid- to late-1800s. The Site was later improved with 12 buildings that were utilized as residential/tenement houses, lumber yard, and coal/fuel distribution business from the late 1800s to the 1950s. These former buildings were demolished at various dates from the early 1900s to circa 1960, with the exception of an apartment building and garage (26 Oxford Street), which was demolished in 1985 and 1999, respectively. From 1961 to 1966, the Site was improved with the Site building (2 Oxford Street). The northern portion of the building was originally constructed as a printing press facility (Hood�s Mailing & Printing, Inc.) with offices, sales room, loading/unloading area, bathrooms, and a boiler room. The southern portion was added onto the building and utilized as a mailing room for the printing press facility. From 1998 to 2000, Casco-Hood Printing & Mailing, Inc. occupied the Site. Printing press operations reportedly ceased at the Site circa 2000. CarQuest occupied the building from circa 2000 to March 2015; the Site building was demolished in February 2016 and the Site has been vacant to the present date.
