Cushman & Wakefield’s Multi-Family Advisory Group is pleased to present the opportunity to redevelop 465 Congress Street, the Fidelity Trust Building, in downtown Portland, Maine. The property – fully approved for sixty-three (63) luxury apartment units - is offered for sale or joint venture development with the existing ownership. Dating back to 1910, the building is a registered Portland historic landmark and was the city’s first “skyscraper.” Overlooking Monument Square in the heart of the downtown, and across Preble Street from the Time and Temperature Building, this offering is a truly rare opportunity to reposition a landmark building and create a legacy asset.
465 Congress Street is a ten-story building comprised of ±84,180 square feet on ±0.447 acres. The ownership has received approvals for the redevelopment of the 2nd through 10th floors (former office space) into sixty-three (63) apartment units. Most of the floors are already in “white box” condition with upgraded building systems in-place. The property is poised for construction to start, and the incoming developer can leverage both the Opportunity Zone and Historic Tax Credit programs to enhance project returns.
Process & Pricing
465 Congress Street is available on an “as-is” basis and is being offered without a formal asking price. Upon receipt of a signed confidentiality agreement, qualified investors will be provided with the offering memorandum and access to due diligence materials via the C&W website. Once investors have had an opportunity to review the offering materials and tour the property, C&W will schedule a “Call for Offers”.
