Augusta, ME, 04330
There are a number of beautiful buildings scattered throughout Augusta, but there are few quite as importance, or historically significant as the Blaine House. Though it has seen a lot of history in its day, it's most famously known as the current Governor's Mansion for the Governor of Maine, and home to the First Family. The Blaine House is a major landmark in town, and one spot that every Augusta apartment resident should make it a point to see, to see the spot where so many great figures have tread the boards. An apartment near the Blaine House will give people untold access to all the information they could want about the history of Maine's government, and also give them the chance to see this beautiful, historical house whenever they want while hardly having to travel at all The Blaine House was built in the late 19th Century by a retired captain, and stayed in his family for many years, but in 1919, it was donated to Maine, becoming the official housing for the First Family. Since then, each Governor, as well as his wife and children, have made themselves at home in this gorgeous abode, which resonates with the history of the men and women who have lived within the walls. If you relive some of this history yourself, you can always visit the house, since it also a national landmark, with tours of the house occurring many times a week. It allows visitors, whether they be from apartments near the Blaine House, or those from Augusta apartments on the other side of the city, the chance to take a walk on the same grounds on which some of the most famous figures in Maine government walked. The Blaine House provides people from Augusta apartments untold access to the history of the governments and First Families of their great state, and also features some splendid architecture. It's a place that every Augustan should visit, especially if they happen to have an apartment near the Blaine House.
