Additional Property Attributes

Former Use: The Subject Property encompasses the entirety of the approximate 1.25-acre Wood Island, and is located in Portsmouth Harbor in the Town of Kittery, York County, Maine. The Subject Property is known as Wood Island, located in the Kittery Point Area of Portsmouth Harbor and the Piscataqua River, and is improved with two 2 buildings, including the former United States Coast Guard Lifesaving Station USCG LSS and a ?tool house?. The Site Buildings were constructed in 1907 for use in connection with the lifesaving station. The Subject Property appears to have been historically utilized by the U.S. Navy as a barracks and yellow fever quarantine in the 1800?s, by the United States Lifesaving Service and Coast Guard as a lifesaving station from 1907 through circa 1941, by the U.S. Navy as an observation station during World War II from 1941 through 1945, and has since been vacant and unofficially used for recreational purposes.
