N Scale Workshop **N Scale Model – Historic Meriden, Connecticut Post Office (1909)**
Bring a piece of American architectural history to your layout with this highly detailed N scale 3D-printed replica of the **Meriden Post Office**, a timeless Beaux-Arts structure built in 1909.
Designed under the supervision of **James Knox Taylor**, then Supervising Architect of the U.S. Department of the Treasury, this post office reflects classical grandeur with its dressed limestone façade, symmetrical columns, and ornate detailing. A 1932 expansion by **James A. Wetmore** maintained the original design integrity, preserving its iconic features.
This building was added to the **National Register of Historic Places in 1986** and once served as the heart of Meriden’s mail services. While the post office operations have moved, the structure remains a proud monument to early 20th-century federal architecture.
🧱 **Features:**
- Faithfully modeled exterior details, true to the original Beaux-Arts design
- Already painted and weathered for realistic customization
- Perfect for adding historical character to urban or civic scenes on your layout
- Dimensions: *(113mm wide, 134 mm long, 58 mm tall)*
🎨 Each model is printed with care and precision, ideal for collectors, model railroaders, or architecture enthusiasts.
Own a slice of Meriden’s heritage—right in N scale!
