Портлендская обсерватория
Портлендская обсерватория — историческая морская сигнальная башня на Конгресс-стрит, 138, в районе Манджой-Хилл в Портленде, штат Мэн. Построенная в 1807 году, это единственная известная сохранившаяся башня такого типа в Соединенных Штатах. С помощью телескопа и сигнальных флажков двусторонняя связь между кораблем и берегом стала возможной за несколько часов до того, как приближающееся судно достигло доков. В 2006 году башня была признана национальным историческим памятником; теперь им управляет местная некоммерческая организация как музей, и он открыт для публики. Обсерватория Портленда — единственная сохранившаяся морская сигнальная станция в США. Работа башни оплачивалась за счет ежегодных сборов, взимаемых с судоходных торговцев, которые приобрели право хранить свои флаги в здании и поднимали его флагштоки, когда их корабли были замечены. В конце концов был установлен телефон, что продлило функцию башни до 1923 года, когда надежность судов с двигателями и связь по радио сделали ее устаревшей.

Portland Observatory
The Portland Observatory is a historic maritime signal tower at 138 Congress Street in the Munjoy Hill section of Portland, Maine. Built in 1807, it is the only known surviving tower of its type in the United States. Using both a telescope and signal flags, two-way communication between ship and shore was possible several hours before an incoming vessel reached the docks. The tower was designated a National Historic Landmark in 2006; it is now managed by a local nonprofit as a museum, and is open to the public. The Portland Observatory is the only remaining maritime signal station in the United States. Tower operations were paid with annual fees collected from shipping merchants, who purchased the right to have their flags stored in the building and hoisted up its flagstaffs when their ships were sighted. A telephone was eventually installed, extending the tower's function until 1923, when the reliability of engine powered vessels and communication by radio made it obsolete.
