What do you do with a nearly 60-acre property after the weirdest discount store in Maine finally moves out?
You speculate.
For months, people around Brewer, Maine, did exactly that.
The old Marden’s had been sitting on Wilson Street for more than four decades. Then, in March 2026, the store crossed the Penobscot River and opened a new location in Bangor.
The old property was suddenly sitting there with a giant building, a huge parking lot and a whole lot of land.
Naturally, everyone wanted to know what was coming next. Apartments? Another retailer?
A gym? A car dealership?
Something completely insane? Well, we now know at least part of the answer.
