Castine attempted to create "historic preservation" in 1995 and created a historic district in 1996. The attempt to preserve the architecture was botched and has done more damage to historic preservation than it helped. Historic preservation continues to be poorly managed and implemented and is slowly destroying many of the towns resources.

[edit] Fort Pentagouet

I added a brief mention of the above in the Castine article. Is it the exact same site? Please amend the text if that is the case. The fort was approximately 7 years before the Plymouth settlers so that rings true. --Stormbay 22:42, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
