The Broadway Historic District in Bangor, Maine, United States, bounded by Garland, Essex, State, Park, and Center Streets, is one of the residential neighborhoods most favored by the city's lumber barons and business elites in the early to late 19th century.

It was laid out roughly on the model of Boston's Beacon Hill, with a green strip running down the center for the first two blocks, planted with a double row of elm trees.

The first residences built along the street's green strip in the 1820s-30s were large brick double-houses and single-houses, again conformed to the city-scape of Boston.

[2] Within the first decade, however, brick had given way to fully detached wooden mansions, though the size and stylistic ambitions of the owners didn't diminish.

The construction of the large Catholic John Bapst High School in the center of the district in the 1920s, for which a number of mansions were demolished, was likely the tipping point in the neighborhood's conversion to mixed use.
