The fire was brought under control within about an hour, but the residence sustained extensive fire and smoke damage and is uninhabitable.
The Red Cross of Northern New England said in a post on X, formerly known as Twitter, that 29 of the building's 36 units were damaged or destroyed by the fire, leaving about 65 residents without a place to stay. They said they are working with the displaced residents "to meet their immediate needs and help with recovery planning."
The cause of the fire remains under investigation.
