Sea Change is a small complex of buildings and structures located in the ocean-side community of Northeast Harbor, part of the town of Mount Desert. The property contains five residential buildings, a workshop and a subterranean bomb shelter with dates of construction that range from the 1880s through 2005. The earliest buildings, Cabins 1, 2, and 3 and the caretaker?s house were originally erected in the 1880s to accompany a large Shingle Style cottage. In 1944 this cottage was removed and by 1947 a stunning modernist house, designed by the architect Walter K.

As Maine communities began to lose their frontier aspects in the 19th century and assume a more settled countenance, rudimentary civic improvements were initiated. Among these improvements in the largely agricultural world of rural Maine were those concerned with the regulation of the livestock. To control the problem of loose cattle, hogs, or sheep towns constructed open air shelters, known as pounds or cattle pounds, to temporarily corral wayward animals. At least 33 of these structures are extant in Maine, and the condition of each varies from almost unrecognizable to good.

Constructed in 1922 from plans by native son Charles Lawson, the east facing structure is set on a small grassy village lot near the center of the village. The Library was constructed with funds donated by Rhoda M. Watson, a former resident of the community, in memory of her husband Edwin L. Watson, a successful industrialist.

The Elms is one of a number of elegant and stylish Second Emprire style houses that were built in Houlton in the 1870s, but it may be the only one that is an elegant and stylish example of Craftsman style as well.

Surrounded by hundreds of acres of agricultural fields on the outskirts of the town of Houlton, the Donovan and Hussey Farms provide a visually striking image. Facing each other across the road, the two properties contain similarly looking large gambrel roof barns and nicely composed early twentieth century houses. Together they form, and inform, a distinctive image of the region?s agricultural history.
