Maine s VIP Tires & Service is up to 63 stores in four states, and counting

A new store that opened in Rutland, Vt., last fall was half tire store, half bike shop. Every store has a story, said Tim Winkeler, CEO of the Maine-based tire and service company. They all have such interesting stories. Recently, those stories have been stacking up. The company, based in Auburn, has been on a tear the past five years, with 40% growth. The company employs more than 500 at 63 stores in four states, 35 of them in Maine. In 2020, new stores opened in Massachusetts, Vermont and New Hampshire. There were two relocations that involved major expansions in Maine the Windham store and one in Brunswick. More is planned for 2021, including store expansions and relocations in Auburn and Sanford.

Battle of the roof bars? Historic Portland hotel may expand its lofty lounge

One of Maine’s most historic hotels may build a 2,200-square-foot addition atop its roof, while what may be one of the state’s newest inns is refining plans for a rooftop structure of its own. The 93-year-old Westin Portland Harborview Hotel is proposing to build two outdoor patios adjoining its Top of the East Lounge, 15 stories above Congress Square in downtown Portland. The proposal goes to a public hearing Wednesday before the Portland Historic Preservation Board in the city’s first look at the project. At the same meeting, the board is scheduled to discuss modifications to a planned rooftop lounge at the 135-room Canopy by Hilton Hotel, now under construction at the corner of Center and Commercial streets. Hilton and the hotel’s developer, Portland-based Fathom Cos., are already promoting Luna, the indoor-outdoor bar with a seventh-floor terrace, as “a first for the city.”
