In 1898, The Meridian was an imposing loft building that provided a palatial home for one of the City´s leading shoe manufacturers and today stands as a formidable reminder of the City´s leading position in the shoe industry.

The A. D. Brown building served as a key stimulant in the development of the underbuilt 12th Street downtown thoroughfare. The architects used soot-resistant, lustrous enameled bricks for exterior walls in keeping with Chicago´s "White City" ideal.

The property was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1980. It remains a unique addition to the central business district.

The Meridian is a luxury loft-style condominium building in St. Louis, MO. The modern lofts feature 14-foot ceilings, exposed red brick and ductwork as well as gourmet kitchens with granite counters and custom cabinetry in many units.  The variety of floor plans adds to the appeal of this super cool property.

Residents enjoy the savory smell of Insomnia Cookies in the main lobby entrance and can walk to Blondie's, Rosalita's, Bella's Frozen Yogurt, Mizu, Sen Thai, Over/Under and many more eateries along Washington Avenue.  

Sports fans can walk to Cardinals, Blues and St. Louis City Soccer games or take in the Arch grounds for some great outdoor activity while cycling along the Graffiti Wall on the riverfront.

The building is just two blocks from the T-Rex building for entreprenurial start ups and three blocks from SLU Law School. Put the Meridian Lofts in your bucket list of buildings to see!
