Meridian Mississippi ~ Grand Opera House ~ Photo 1996 ~ Retsored 2006 In 1928, a department-store owner in Meridian, MS, set up a time capsule. He didn't mean to; he just intended to briefly close down a 1,000-seat theater inside his store – for complicated and intriguing business reasons. But the room – gloriously ornamented by a renowned theater architect – ended up shuttered, moldering and frozen in the Jazz Age until last year.

Meridian, MS Union Station The Passenger station in Meridian was completed in 1906 and served Amtrak passengers until recently. Not long ago, a new station opened next door. On my visit here in 2019, it looked like they were turning this building into a museum. There is already some rolling stock behind it.

Meridian Carousel Tour - "Your Horseness of the Queen City" Meridian, MS has a series of painted carousel horses around town in honor of the Dentzel Antique Carousel at Highland Park. This one is named Your Horseness in Queen City and was designed by artist Peyton Hutchinson. It was originally sponsored by Long Wholesale, but is currently located in front of the old Union Hotel in downtown Meridian on Front St. across from the train station.
