Nothing moderate about our love for this project!

Over the summer, the Acorn team had the pleasure of attending the ribbon cutting for 21 Town Hall Place, which includes the new home for Moderation Brewing as part of the historic redevelopment of Brunswick’s Central Fire Station. This project included the reuse of the old firehouse building into a bigger and better Moderation Brewing facility but also 5 of affordable housing units located in heart of downtown Brunswick. Cheers to all of the project partners and new residents!

Blaze hats, hot wings and sunshine! 🧡☀️

Acorn took to the seas last week (thanks, Casco Bay Lines!) for some quality time together at Island Lobster Company on Peaks Island. Laptops down, new blaze swag on, and a whole lot of fun with this crew. 🦞

40 reasons Sam deserves this honor…

We could list all 40, but we'd run out of room.

Instead, we'll just say congratulations to Sam Lebel on being named to the MaineBiz 40 Under 40 list! This recognition reflects the impact he's made on our clients, our employees, and our community. We're lucky to have him on Team Acorn.

"Wave" as we fly by - Acorn is on the road!

Last week, Acorn conducted the first in a series of education and technical assistance workshops throughout Hancock County's coastal communities, in partnership with Hancock County Planning Commission. The three-part workshop series, made possible by the Maine Department of Environmental Protection, is focused on understanding how Maine's coastlines - namely dune and bluff systems - change over time, and will discuss how communities and landowners can respond to storm damage and increased climate hazards through assessing sites for vulnerability, identifying project goals, and by incorporating nature-based strategies into final designs. We are grateful to work with municipal staff, conservation agencies, and landowners in their efforts to plan effectively for coastal change. Look for us in the dunes, and bluffs, and community centers of Hancock County as we conduct Workshops 2 and 3 in October!

Thank you to our additional project partners for their interagency input:
Maine Geological Survey
Maine Department of Marine Resources
Maine Department of Inland Fisheries & Wildlife

Bridging the Gap

Acorn was pleased to attend the ribbon cutting for the new Stroudwater Pedestrian Bridge earlier this month. Ten years ago, this project started as a map amendment to develop a subdivision in the upland area while preserving 23-acres adjacent to the Stroudwater River for open space and public access.

Fast forward to today: this project for Portland Maine Parks, Recreation & Facilities Department, in collaboration with Portland Trails, provides a pedestrian crossing that completes the missing link between the Stroudwater and Fore River Trails. With the Portland Technology Park to the north and Unum to the south, the trails and open space allow residents to live, work, and play in their community.

Acorn provided civil engineering, floodplain management, and permitting services for the project.

Congratulations to all project partners!

Earlier this summer the Acorn team was proud to attend the “topping off” ceremony for Bellwether in Bayside. In addition to setting the final beam, the broom represents a clean sweep with no major incidents and a point of pride for all those involved in the construction process. When completed, this Avesta Housing and Reveler Development project will transform a parking lot into 201 affordable housing units with two ground level commercial spaces.

We look forward to seeing the building and site advancing to completion in 2027!

This summer the Acorn Landscape Design Team had the pleasure of working with Coffee and Bakery, one of our favorite coffee shops and bakeries in Portland, to revamp their planting and outdoor space. Updated planters to fit over recently placed barriers and native plantings helped to make the space more inviting...so much so that we couldn’t help ourselves from stopping by for a quick break with a very willing model!
