Kenduskeag Stream is a 36.2-mile (58.3 km)^[1] stream in theU.S. state ofMaine. It is a tributary of thePenobscot River. The stream rises at the outlet of Garland Pond in the town ofGarland, and flows southeast throughCorinth,Kenduskeag, andGlenburn, before it reaches the city ofBangor. Passing through downtown Bangor, the stream drops 100 feet (30 m) in 2 miles (3 km), flowing into the Penobscot between the two downtown bridges across the larger river.^[2] Kenduskeag means "eel weir place" inPenobscot.^[3]
