Drawing on the heritage of this historic city in the heart of Maine, The Lockwood Hotel—aptly named for the namesake of nearby landmark Lockwood Mills, home to the city’s deep tradition of textile manufacturing—is a nod to Waterville’s history of innovation and reinvention. The modern boutique property includes 53 rooms and suites, meeting rooms, fitness facilities, and Front & Main, a full-service bar and restaurant with a focus on ingredients from Maine farmers and harvesters. A limestone façade ties the building into the existing adjacent architecture along Main Street, and celebrates the significance of the material in Maine’s historic and civic buildings. A seasonal patio adjoining Front & Main will tie into a neighboring public park and other outdoor spaces and restaurants, reinforcing owner Colby College’s commitment to revitalization of the entire downtown corridor. The building is LEED Silver certified.
