A community rooted in nature.

With 200 acres of open space plus 25 acres donated to the Scarborough Land Trust, The Downs is designed to keep nature at the heart of the community. Once home to harness racing, this land has always been a place where the outdoors played a central role. Today, that legacy lives on through miles of scenic trails, wetlands, and green spaces—preserved for generations to come. Because protecting the land isn’t just important to The Downs—it’s important to all of us.

Minutes from Portland, miles from ordinary.

With easy access to I-95, I-295, and Route 1, The Downs puts you close to everything that makes southern Maine special. In just minutes, you can be in Portland’s Old Port, grabbing dinner at an award-winning restaurant or catching a show. Head in the other direction, and you’ll find Scarborough’s beaches, the Eastern Trail, and some of Maine’s best outdoor escapes, without the long drive.
