About the Cross Insurance Center:
The Cross Insurance Center opened for business in
September, 2013 and is the first facility of it’s kind in the
state of Maine. Located along the historic riverfront in the
quintessential New England city of Bangor, Maine, the
Cross Insurance Center is located almost directly off of
Interstate 95, and is just minutes from Bangor Municipal Golf
Course, Bangor International Airport and Downtown
Bangor. The state of the art facility has easy access to
diverse dining and nightlife, boutique and unique
shopping, and is just a scenic hour’s drive to breathtaking
ocean views at Acadia National Park.
