The 104-unit DeWitt housing project is seen Thursday morning under construction along Pine Street in Lewiston across from Kennedy Park. The project involves two buildings: the green-wrapped building well on its way to completion and another building just underway to the left. The project is on track to be completed by year’s end. Crews razed two buildings along Pine Street to make way for the development, including a former Sun Journal building at 40 Pine St. that was on the site of the former DeWitt Hotel. The project will include 15,000 square feet of commercial space on the ground floor. Lewiston Housing is in talks with Webb’s Market owner and City Councilor Susan Longchamps to use two-thirds of the space. (Russ Dillingham/Staff Photographer)
