Decker Towers is an 11-floor apartment building at 230 St. Paul Street in Burlington, Vermont.[4] At 124 feet (38 m) tall, it is the tallest building in the U.S. state of Vermont.[nb 1] It is the shortest of any of the US states' tallest buildings, in part because Burlington is the smallest of the US states' biggest cities. Decker Towers was built as a turnkey project that was purchased by the City of Burlington. Pizzagalli Construction Company began construction on October 29, 1970, and the towers opened on August 31, 1971.[5] It is owned and managed as public housing by the Burlington Housing Authority.[3][6] Its assessed value is $11,104,000, with the building, land, and yard items valued at $10,224,700; $712,900; and $166,400, respectively.[3]
