About Augusta, Maine
Augusta is the capital of Maine and the seat of Kennebec County, a city of 18,899 people where the tide ends on the Kennebec River. Traders from Plymouth Colony set up a post on the east bank around 1628 and used the Native name for the spot, Cushnoc. The fur trade faded, and Plymouth sold its Kennebec Patent in 1661, leaving the place empty for decades.
In 1754 the Kennebec Proprietors put up Fort Western near the old post, and a village called "the Fort" grew around it. It belonged to Hallowell from 1771 until February 1797, when it became the town of Harrington, and that August it took the name Augusta to honor Pamela Augusta Dearborn, Henry Dearborn's daughter. Augusta became the county seat in 1799, beat out Portland, Brunswick and Hallowell to become the capital in 1827, and was incorporated as a city in 1849.
- Arnold's stop in 1775Fort Western was meant to supply Fort Halifax farther up the Kennebec and to guard against the French. No enemy ever attacked it directly. In 1775 Benedict Arnold and his 1,100 troops paused here to fix their bateaux, then pushed upriver toward Quebec. The fort's main house survives from the original, and it opened as a museum on July 4, 1922.
- Bulfinch's granite State HouseAugusta's people gave the land where the State House would stand and opened State Street as the road leading up to it. Lawmakers kept meeting in Portland until Charles Bulfinch's Maine State House, built of Hallowell granite, was ready, and they first sat there on January 4, 1832. In 1909 and 1910 the building was doubled in length and topped with a 185-foot dome, crowned by a gilt copper Minerva.
- A dam and its millsIn 1837 a dam was built across the river at the falls, which drop 15 feet there, and by 1838 contracts called for 10 sawmills. The Edwards Manufacturing Company bought the A. & W. Sprague property in 1883 and built large brick mills to spin cotton from the South. Edwards Dam stood until 1999, when the government removed it over its owner's objections, opening 17 miles of river.
- Water Street's ups and downsFor most of Augusta's history, business crowded along Water Street on the west bank, where a fire in 1865 burned nearly 100 buildings. Trolleys ran down the street to Gardiner and Hallowell from 1890 until buses took over in 1932. Once Interstate 95 and the Maine Turnpike opened in 1955, stores drifted toward the highway, and about 60 percent of downtown storefronts went empty. Since the late 2000s the city and the Augusta Downtown Alliance have worked to revive it.
