201 Federal Street is an eighteen-story apartment building on Federal Street in Portland, Maine, United States. Upon its completion in 2023, it inherited the title of the tallest residential building in Maine from nearby Franklin Towers, on Cumberland Avenue, which held the record since its completion in 1969. 201 Federal Street is 204.5 feet (62.3 m),[1] which surpasses Franklin Towers by 29.5 feet (9.0 m). It is the third-tallest building in the state, behind the Agora Grand Event Center in Lewiston.
A zoning amendment was granted by the City of Portland in March 2021, allowing the height to be achieved.[2]
The first floor is commercial space; the other seventeen floors are residential, containing 266 apartments.[3]
The building is owned by Redfern Downtown LLC, a subsidiary of Redfern Properties.[3] It was built by Landry/French Construction from Scarborough, Maine.[2]
