The Maine is a historic building located in Des Moines, Iowa, United States. This three-story, brick structure was completed in 1913. It features 18 units, an "H" plan, a series of ribbon windows, stone lintels and decorative stone trimming. At the rear of the property is a two-story brick automobile garage that shares the historic designation with the apartment building. The date of its construction is uncertain.[1] The building is located on Sixth Avenue, which by the turn of the 20th century had become a major route utilized by vehicular traffic and streetcar lines. Its proximity to this transportation corridor illustrates the emergence of higher and denser residential use in this area of Des Moines.[1] The apartment building and garage were listed together on the National Register of Historic Places in 1996. It is currently income-restricted housing.
