The Downs

Gorrill Palmer, an LJB Engineering Company, serves as the lead consultant for the transformation of the historic Scarborough Downs racetrack into a vibrant, 500-acre mixed-use community in Southern Maine. This unparalleled project blends residential, commercial, light industrial, and recreational spaces, anchored by a dynamic mixed-use center at its core.

Our team is spearheading master planning, engineering, permitting, and project management to bring this vision to life. The project involves navigating complex zoning approvals, local subdivision and site plan reviews, and securing permits from Maine DEP, the Army Corps of Engineers, and the Maine Department of Transportation.

The scale and diversity of uses within this development offer an extraordinary opportunity to create a thriving community, setting a new standard for placemaking and positive impact in Maine.
