Description
The Osteopathic Hospital of Maine, Inc., was incorporated in 1935 and for some years conducted a hospital on Pleasant Ave. in Portland. Finding the premises insufficient for its expanding needs, the corporation acquired other property in Portland which had been used as a private hospital. This was effected March 15, 1940. The tract of land purchased contains approximately 5 acres and extends from Brighton Ave. to Prospect St. in Portland. For the purposes of taxation, however, the assessors divided the tract into two parcels, assessing one and exempting the other. The exempted plot has a frontage of 220 ft. on Brighton Ave. and extends back to the rear of two vacant lots which border on Prospect St. Upon this lot are the buildings, and the present hospital is located so that its northerly side wall is 50 ft. southerly of the dividing line. The remainder of the land was taxed. It has a frontage on Brighton Ave. of 185 ft. It contains approximately 2 1/2 acres, and consists of a wooded pine grove and some vacant land, including the two lots fronting on Prospect St. No actual physical demarcation was made. There are no fences or markers.
