Constructed on top of wooden pilings just feet above the mighty waters of the Piscataqua River on U.S. Route 1 in Kittery, Maine, is Warren’s Lobster House. Warren’s was established in 1940 by Warren “Pete” Wurm. When Warren’s opened it was a tiny six-stool lobster stand. Today Warren’s is a 350-seat restaurant that houses a full-service bakery, a lobster pound capable of holding thousands of pounds of the delicious crustaceans, the Captain’s Treasure Chest Gift Shop, the Lobster Trap Lounge, Pete’s Stateline Sweets Candy Store, the Seacoast’s Finest Salad Bar, and a full-service, open-air deck.—lobsterhouse.com
The North Church of Portsmouth, New Hampshire, is a historic Congregational church located in Market Square. In 1854, the current church building was erected by Towle & Foster of Boston. Sited directly across from the Portsmouth Athenæum, it features an Italianate edifice and a steeple visible from most of the city, the Piscataqua River, and communities on its western bank in Maine. Its spire has been referred to as Portsmouth's "landmark of record". The church is home to Portsmouth's United Church of Christ congregation.—Wikipedia This image was processed as an HDR (High Dynamic Range) composition.
