Searsport, Maine 223

A view looking up Leach Street in downtown Searsport. The image is a peaceful springtime view of a dirt residential sidestreet near the center of town. One of the brick blocks on Main Street is visible at the end of the lane. The house closest to the camera is a modest vernacular variation of the Greek Revival, built ca. 1825 with a classical front portico supporting an overhanging second story. A man relaxes in a hammock tied between a tree and the front corner of the house.
