“We should be preserving the pre-oil industrial waterfront, not destroying it to build condominiums.” Kevin Donoghue

This strong sentiment is echoed loudly across the coast of Maine, and especially from Portland (Maine) City Councilor Kevin Donoghue.

You can read Daniel’s description of the scene on the Post Carbon Cities Blog.
