Lewiston Overview

The second-largest city in the proud state of Maine, Lewiston is a thriving locale that boasts much in the way of opportunity, diversity and culture. Rich in heritage and offering a relaxed ay of life that lends itself easily to a variety of lifestyles and budgets, from students to retirees.

What is the history of Lewiston?

Forming in the late 1700s, Lewiston grew at a steady pace as a primarily farming town. The arrival of a canal system in 1850 helped spurn on firther expansion, and textile manufacturing soon replaced farming as the main industry. As railroads developed, more and more people, including a large segment of Canadians, migrated to the city in search of work. Despite an economic downturn in the textile industry through the 1950s, Lewiston experienced revitilization attempts in the later part of the century, and today the city is on an upward swing, brimming with eateries, museums and a solid local economy.

How is the weather in Lewiston?

Winters in a Lewiston apartment can be harsh, although the pleasant summer months generally make up for any snowfall. Autumn is quite pleasant indeed, complete with spectacular leaf color explosions, and plenty of brisk, seasonal cool air. 

How do I get around town?

While a majority of those calling Lewiston rentals home depend on a personal auto for getting around, publis transportation is still in high supply in this quaint Maine locale. Greyhound and Concord Coaches handle bus service, including tranfers to Boston, while the nearby Portland International Jetport acts as the major source for flights in the region. Ride shares and bicycling remain popular as well.

What is the Lewiston commute like?

Interstate 95 is the primary roadway in the vicinity, with U.S. Route 202 a close second. Both can see their fair share of traffic on bust work days, although in general the flow is much smoother than, say, Boston's snarls. The ietnam Veterans Memorial Bridge connects to nearby Auburn, and a duo of Maine State Routes run through the city as well.

What are the local media outlets?

The 'Sun Journal' is the dominant print news source in the city, with the 'Twin City Times' also seeing publication twice per month. Lewiston apartment residents will have no shortage of radio programming options, including local favorites like WRBC and WFNK. Broadcast television is likewise readily available, with WCSH a nearby station.

What Lewiston landmarks should I see?

The Atrium Gallery at the University of Southern Maine collects a stunning assortment of art on a variety of mediums, with the Kora Temple Shrine a majestic piece of architecture to behold. Dozens of nearby structures find themselves on the Nation Registry of Historic Sites, including the Bradford House, Lyceum Hall and the famed Grand Trunk Railroad station.

What is there to do around Lewiston?

Spend an afternoon immersed in the city's textile history with a visit to the Museum L-A, or catch a stage play at the Public Theatre, both within easy reach of many Lewiston apartments. The Franco Center also offers musical performances weekly, and the nearby Kennedy Park is a perfect spot to relax with a good book or walk the family dog.

Any annual festivals or Lewiston events to know?

Where are the nearby vacation spots?
