Brunswick Maine Street Station or Brunswick Station is a multi-modal, multi-use real estate development in the middle of Brunswick, Maine, located on Maine Street. It consists of commercial offices, service centers, healthcare, retail, restaurants, theater and residential space. Brunswick Station is also a transportation hub for city buses, taxis, and passenger trains.The development is split into two parts, the "West" and "East" sides (West and East of Union Street respectively). The west side will consist mostly of residential apartments and homes, along with some retail and commercial office space. The east side consists of mostly retail and commercial office space, along with some apartments. The east side is also the location of the passenger train station. This development was built on the vacant lots surrounding the railroad junction between Portland, Lewiston, Augusta, and Rockland.HistoryThe first steps of the project began on August 20, 1998, when the Town of Brunswick purchased the land that the development is on for $655,000. Not until 2004 (four years after the Downeaster's Boston-Portland service began) did the town begin to consider creating a commercial development around a train station.
