monument square

It began as a small flash mob in Portland's Monument Square in 2012, and has grown to include over 100 dancers that draw big crowds each year before Halloween.

I know It's September, but Portland needs a *Christmas* tree now.

I'll die on this hill.

This is the type of love and generosity I want to see flow through my city.

Inclement weather is cited as the reason for the delay of the tree's delivery to Monument Square.

The locally sourced tree will act as a symbol for the holiday season in downtown Portland.

Black Friday will be buzzing in Portland's Monument Square for the tree lighting and World Cup match against England.

For those of you who work, live in, or visit Portland, you’re going to get quite the jumpscare today.

I’d love to see more things like this around our city.

Popular food cart, Roll Call has a brand new brick and mortar location, right in the heart of Monument Square in Portland.

Need some Christmas spirit? This trumpet playing Santa elf is just the trick.

That tree was always destined for Monument Square.

We set up the PA on our One City Center patio overlooking the heart of the city. The sweet, magical music Jerry had given us for 30 years was filling the air under a bright, beautiful moon. I swear that I saw his smiling face in it.

On August 9, 1995, just before the WBLM Classic Lunch Hour, I went into the Blimp Studio to let Tommy C know that Jerry passed. He offered his condolences with an expression that you would give someone who just lost a family member. For Deadheads, we had.

All it takes is one quick look outside to know that Christmas time is upon us, but there's still one more thing that needs to happen in Maine before the Holiday season begins officially. Light up those trees, or lighthouses!

Now with the tree up and in place the workers can begin the daunting process of stringing up the over 5,000 lights and have it ready for the annual Tree Lighting Ceremony on Friday the 23rd.
