Downtown Presque Isle
The downtown amenities of the City of Presque Isle include the Northeastland Hotel and the Common Gallery, with the Historical Museum and nearby Historical Society each located slightly to the north of the center of downtown, albeit somewhat separately. Numerous shops and stores are located within the downtown area to serve the general public, including both locals and tourists in Presque Isle and the larger area of Aroostook County, Maine.
University of Maine-Presque Isle
The University of Maine-Presque Isle, interestingly, hosts a solar system model continuing south for nearly one hundred miles through central and southern portions of Aroostook County for highway travelers along United States Route 1 north of Houlton. Located on the southern side of the City of Presque Isle, UMaine-Presque Isle also hosts the Northern Maine Museum of Science for the general public and contains an art gallery independent of the downtown gallery, known as the Reed Art Gallery.
