Description
The United States Custom House in Portland, Maine, at sunrise.
The custom house was constructed between 1867 and 1872, as the fire of July 4, 1866 destroyed 1800 buildings in the city's downtown area, including the building that previously held the US Customs offices. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1973 and underwent renovation in 2013. It was designed by Alfred B. Mullett, who was Supervising Architect of the Treasure from 1865 to 1874.
