It celebrated its 200th anniversary in 2007."

I have explained this in previous photos, but "New Portland" is my own nickname for a section of eastern Portland that has seen an explosive building boom over the past handful of years. It's not officially called that, nor have I heard anyone else refer to it as such - but it seems fitting to me. This view is representative of much of the area that has recently seen that building boom - that is to say, this is what much of it looked like prior to the boom. The tracks in the foreground are part of the Maine Narrow Gauge Railroad.

I should also add that this is my first test roll through this cool compact Yashica point and shoot camera I picked up earlier this year. I was very pleased with the results and more samples from it will be posted here shortly. And from a quick Flickr search, I'd say there aren't many of these in use.
