The "Custom House Block"
circa 1854

If you are running or starting a business in the Midcoast area, you may want to inspect this prime central downtown location. We open our front doors to the middle of Rockland's Main Street (U.S. Route One). The back doors open to a free municipal parking lot. The top two floors get a view of Penobscot Bay.

This unique building is a historic landmark in the very center of downtown Rockland. The "Custom House Block" changed hands in 1998 and has been continually upgraded ever since then. In addition, this elegant 15,000 sq. ft. historic financial center has been steadily brought up to modern safety standards including the installation of over 200 fire sprinkler heads and a state of the art smoke detection and alarm system that is wired directly to the Rockland Fire Department.

Do you like historic buildings with character...
but need high tech communications?
No problem ... new wiring allows you to choose a simple and cost effective DSL hook up or, better yet, simply sign up for the new wireless internet system that is available throughout the entire building.

If your plans include increasing your exposure and presence in the Mid-Coast area, it would be difficult to find a more interesting building, or a better location to run your business, offer your professional services, sell your merchandise, start your classes, open your gallery or simply find a quiet space to use your imagination.

Massive iron castings, rather than wood, trim the face of this Italianate landmark. In 1999, 150 years of decorations were removed from those castings to reveal the intricate detail that had been lost long ago. The 75-foot by 50-foot, three story (formerly four story) brick building includes eight walk-in vaults as evidence of its banking heritage (cash was the only option back then).

Businesses have prospered here since the 1850's, including the operation of two competing banks and a dance hall and drinking emporium on the third floor that left behind Victorian wallpaper, a maple dance floor and a long silent grand piano.
