Kittery Foreside
- Vicinity: Along Piscataqua River
Kittery Foreside is a historic, walkable coastal neighborhood on the Piscataqua River, directly north of Portsmouth, New Hampshire, via Route 1 and the Memorial Bridge. Around Wallingford Square, 19th-century streetscapes mix with restaurants, boutiques and plenty of local drinkeries, forming Kittery-s lively gateway to the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard. For a box of Maine lobsters, try Seaview Lobster Co at 43 Government Street. The neighborhood's oldest residential stretch follows Whipple Road, running from Whipple Cove to the Spruce Creek edge beneath the Kittery Point Bridge. It's not a spectacular bridge, but locals know you can fish from it, and the shoreline views give this quiet corridor its enduring charm. At 130 Whipple Road, the open green space is not a vacant lot — it's a preserved buffer that protects the timeless character of the drive and maintains the historic rhythm of the neighborhood's waterfront approach. - AsNotedIn
