Property Highlights

The Site is situated within a primarily residential area of downtown Lewiston, Maine and is bounded by a parking lot and residential property to the west and additional residential properties to the north, south, and east. The Site is currently operated as a senior housing facility and is improved with an approximately 8,500 square-foot (footprint), 3-� story, 20-unit apartment building, constructed on a steep hillside along Bates Street. Associated sidewalks, walkways, landscaping, lawns, and an asphalt-paved parking area comprise remaining portions of the Site. By 1886, the Site was initially developed with multiple residential dwellings including tenement buildings, likely utilized for housing by mill employees. Commercial businesses including a real estate office, beauty salon, boot shop, and variety store reportedly occupied the Site during the early 1900?s. Three residential buildings at the Site were heavily damaged by fire in 1993. Remaining structures at the Site were demolished in 1994. The Site remained undeveloped until approximately 2009/2010, when the existing Site building (Birch Hill Apartments) was constructed.
