A national developer has plans to create workforce housing and retail spaces on a long vacant property at the entrance to downtown Bucksport. Wishrock Development, a housing developer based in Portland, is looking to build a complex with 18 apartments and two storefronts at the town-owned Main Street lot that has sat unused for about nine years. It’s one of three apartment complexes in the works in Bucksport that could inject about 35 units into the community and aid the town’s rebound from the Verso paper mill closure in 2014.
