Building 12 Receives Maine Preservation Honor Award

Building 12 of the Portland Foreside Development was recently recognized by Maine Preservation with a 2023 Honor Award!

The project transformed a three-story 1895 brick warehouse formerly belonging to the Portland Company and used for storing wooding casting patterns. The building was carefully dismantled and reconstructed on a new site and renovated to become Twelve, an acclaimed dining destination with offices and residences above.

Bruner/Cott Architects ensured the reconstructed exterior maintained its historic integrity while designing a new internal structure using steel and composite slabs, modern insulated walls and roofing system, and reproduction windows.
