FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. – Patricia Greaney Oransky passed away on April 21, 2021 at the age of 91. Born in Portland and raised on Munjoy Hill, Patricia graduated from Portland High School in 1947 and was awarded the Brown Medal, given to just five girls and five boys in her Senior class.
In 1946 she met Richard Oransky at a summer dance on the Eastern Prom, and thus began a unique romance that lasted 66 years until Richard’s death in 2012. Patricia was Catholic and Richard was Jewish, a relatively common relationship in today’s world but very controversial in 1940’s Maine. They received little support from their families, but persisted and married in 1949 at City Hall with just two witnesses at their side.
Proposal for Portland’s tallest building clears a hurdle
A zoning amendment to allow an 18-story apartment building downtown was endorsed by the Planning Board, but still needs City Council approval.

A proposal to build what could become Portland’s tallest building cleared a hurdle this week and is headed to the City Council.
The Planning Board voted unanimously Tuesday to recommend zoning amendments that would allow Redfern Properties to build an 18-story apartment building in the heart of the downtown. The proposed 190-foot-tall high-rise at 200 Federal St. would have 265 apartments, an infusion of housing in a tight real estate market that the developer says is not about to cool off.
