Waterstone Properties wants to take advantage of the fact that people are traveling from around the globe to Portland, Maine simply for the food and beer offerings. Rather than perusing through a trafficked city, why not invite people to gather in one place and experience the best of the best in culinary offerings and Maine's craft beer scene?

That's their plan, with something they're calling the Rock Row's Beer and Food Hall.
