Portland, Maine's Clark Memorial United Methodist Church was built in 1926. Over the past few years, Hardypond Construction of Portland had converted the historic building, designed by John Calvin Stevens, into a multi-family structure with 25 apartments, according to a report by Laurie Schreiber for Mainebiz.biz in Portland, Maine.
Over the past few years, Hardypond Construction of Portland had converted the historic building, designed by John Calvin Stevens, into a multi-family structure with 25 apartments.
The new development, called The Clark on Pleasant, was purchased by an investor, Suzanne Hanson, who reportedly splits her time between California and New York where she owns apartment complexes. Hanson purchased the property for $4.3 million.
Schreiber's report noted, "Hardypond owner Deirdre Wadsworth ... told Mainebiz in 2017 that she and her crew retained many original elements of the structure — for example, configuring apartments in ways that showcased the original wood beams and [incorporating] a Tiffany-stained glass window that was formerly part of the sanctuary."
The 17,582-square-foot building is on 0.36 acres and, according to the Mainebiz.biz report, has apartments ranging from 596 to 963 square feet. Amenities include a parking lot with 25 spaces, a mail room and a laundry room.
