George W. Orff (March 3, 1835 in Bangor – March 11, 1908), was an American architect of Bangor, Maine and Minnesota.[1]

He is buried at Mount Hope Cemetery in Bangor, Maine. In 1861, he moved to Boston, Massachusetts to study architecture, returning to Bangor ten years later. In 1878, he moved to Minneapolis, Minnesota.[2]

His largest Bangor work may have been the Adams-Pickering Block, a Second Empire-style commercial block which was built in 1873.

He worked together with his architect brother Fremont D. Orff, who also partnered with Edgar E. Joralemon as Orff & Joraleman.[3]

A number of his works are listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places.[4]
