The Eastern Prom is the neighborhood adjacent to Munjoy Hill, though the housing stock is very different. The Prom has some enormous Victorian single family homes. Sea Captain houses. It was never considered as fancy a neighborhood as the Western Prom, on the other side of town, but I prefer it: the light and the views are better. The Eastern Prom more open to Casco Bay. Windy and cold up there this winter, though.
