Sen. William P. Frye House, Second Empire mansion on Main Street, Lewiston, United States.

The wooden structure spans three floors with a mansard roof, featuring decorative window hoods and two-story polygonal window bays on the front facade.

Built in 1874 by architect William H. Stevens, this residence belonged to William P. Frye, who served as United States Senate Majority Leader from 1896 to 1911.

The house stands as an example of architectural evolution in Maine, reflecting the Second Empire style that characterized prestigious residences of the 1870s.

Located at the intersection of Frye Street and Main Street, the building maintains its original structural elements and remains a private residence.

The house includes a complementary two-story rear addition extending along Frye Street, which bears the name of its former resident.
