The Site: 64 Pine Street

Aurora is located at 64 Pine Street in Portland’s quiet and picturesque West End. Nestled beside the rarely used ballfields of Reiche School (likely forever open), it offers southern light, peace, privacy, and greenery rarely found in the city. To the east is the award-winning Cheval restaurant with lovely residential apartments above; to the west, a mix of historic homes and the iconic Soap Bubble building; and to the north, beautifully maintained historic apartments and condos.

Thanks to the building’s elevation, the upper floors enjoy exceptional light and panoramic views:

Southern units (rear/ballfield side): overlook the Casco Bay Bridge, working waterfront, and glimpses of Casco Bay and the Fore River.

Northern units (front/street side): take in Back Cove, sunset skies, and even glimpses of the Mount Washington Range.

All units. Offer elevated views into the lovely architecture of this historic neighborhood.
