Fort Andross, Military fortification in Brunswick, Maine, United States
Fort Andross stands on the banks of the Androscoggin River, built with wood and stone materials that showcase colonial construction techniques.
The fort, established in 1688 under Governor Edmund Andros of the Dominion of New England, protected settlements from British and Native American forces.
The structure underwent transformation from a military post to a cotton mill, reflecting the industrial development of New England through different periods.
The former fortress now functions as a commercial center with office spaces, retail establishments, and venues for community gatherings and events.
A new mural titled 'Many Stitches Hold Up the Sky' decorates the building's south side, representing eight different cultural groups from the region.
