Casey Prentice

Drawing inspiration from Pike Place in Seattle and London’s Borough Market, developer Casey Prentice does not aim to duplicate either but rather create something unique to Portland.

Douro, a new seafood restaurant in Portland, is across the street from a sister restaurant, Twelve. It is expected to open on Oct. 9.

Matt Ginn, a chef at Evo, Twelve, the Chebeague Island Inn and the Good Table, has worked for the Prentice Hospitality Group for a decade.

Forr the Prentice Organization’s newest restaurant venture, Chef Matt Ginn has crafted a menu centered on elegant comfort food. 

Earth at Hidden Pond in Kennebunkport made a list of 'America's Top 100 Romantic Restaurants,' while Casey Prentice's next Portland venture is among 'The 18 Most Hotly Anticipated Restaurant Openings in America This Year.'

From Maine’s coast to inland rivers, private developers and others are building with an eye to a stormier future. They see it not just as a challenge, but as an opportunity to innovate.

The Good Table Restaurant, owned by the Kostopoulos family since 1986, will reopen around February under the new owner, with chef Matt Ginn taking over the kitchen.

The next phase of the mixed-use waterfront development includes nearly 400 residential units and a 128-room luxury hotel.

In recognition of the $250,000 gift from the Prentice Organization for USM's new McGoldrick Center for Career & Student Success, there will be a Prentice Board Room on the center's second floor.

The next development phase, expected to cost between $600 million and $700 million, will cover close to one million square feet.
