The Meridian Building, 326 Fern Street, West Palm Beach, Florida, USA / Built: 1926 / Architect: Marye, Alger & Alger / Floors: 6 + Basement / Height: 71.60 ft / Building Usage: Residential, Office, Retail / Architectural Style: Renaissance Revival

The Meridian Building, with its distinctive brick exterior and centralized location, has been a landmark in Downtown West Palm Beach since 1926. Recently designated as a Historical

Building, The Meridian first opened as the Southern Bell Telephone & Telegraph Company Building, housing the original phone network for the area.

 

The building is still physically attached to the large

AT&T Switching facility servicing the entire Caribbean and the BellSouth Cable Vault is located in the basement.

 

The building is set up with an expansive fiber-optic network, heavy-duty high-grade electric power, and a substantial structural design making it an ideal facility for any telecommunications and/or high tech companies needing unique access to telecommunications and fiber optic connectivity.

 

Last but not least, the architectural aesthetics of the interior are awesome with high ceilings, huge window openings, and large open floor plates. Similar to what you might see in NYC and Chicago but very rare for South Florida.

 

In summary, the Meridian Building offers a very unique office opportunity in a great Downtown

location.

 

Fantastic centralized location in Downtown West Palm Beach. Two blocks from Clematis Street, two blocks from CityPlace, two blocks from the Intracoastal Waterway.
