Celebrate. Protect. Preserve. Enhance.
Our Mission: The Stroudwater Neighborhood Association is dedicated to stewardship of the natural, social, and historic character that makes Stroudwater Village and the surrounding neighborhood unique. To fulfill this mission, the Association aims to celebrate, protect, preserve, and enhance the Stroudwater neighborhood’s historic buildings, its natural resources, and its sense of community. The Association serves the neighborhood by bringing ideas, needs, and concerns as a liaison to the City of Portland, Maine.

Activities
The Stroudwater Neighborhood Association’s activities flow directly from its mission of preserving the integrity of the village, its historic past, as well as its current use. We do this through research, advocacy, and collaboration with other organizations in the area. We help monitor land use, real estate development and historic preservation, pedestrian and vehicle traffic, water and air quality, and Jetport noise. We work to improve the Stroudwater River and Fore River natural environments so they can be a year-round source of recreation and enjoyment. We advocate for safety on our streets and sidewalks, especially for our children, seniors, bicyclists, and motorists, primarily by working with the City on improvements to outer Congress Street and Westbrook Street. We plan and hold year-round community events that are informative, collaborative, and fun. And, we research and gather historic Stroudwater Village material and stories, for the benefit of current residents, and for the historical record.
