The Adams Apartment Building is a historic eight-unit apartment building at 71 Adams Street in the South End of Springfield, Massachusetts. The four story red brick building was built in 1912 by Pierre Angers, at a cost of $13,500. It has Classical Revival styling, with full-height rounded bays flanking a center bay with the entrance at its base, sheltered by a portico with scrolled brackets. The front is finished in glazed red brick, while the sides are in common brick. A stack of modern wood-frame porches are built on the rear of the building. The building is a well-preserved local example of Classical Revival architecture.[2]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2015.[1]
