N Scale Historic Meriden Post Office (1909) – Ready-Built Beaux-Arts Miniature for Model Railroad Layouts & Dioramas

Bring classical grandeur to your layout with this ready-built N scale replica of the Meriden, Connecticut Post Office, a Beaux-Arts landmark originally constructed in 1909. Designed under James Knox Taylor—then Supervising Architect of the U.S. Treasury—this civic building blends elegance and symmetry with timeless architectural detail.

Meticulously modeled from historical references and hand-painted for realism, this miniature captures the limestone façade, ornamental columns, and roofline of the original post office. A later 1932 expansion by James A. Wetmore preserved the building’s historic integrity, and the structure was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.

This model is a striking addition to any urban layout, civic center, or historical display. Whether you’re a railroad modeler, architecture enthusiast, or collector of American landmarks, it’s a showpiece that tells a rich story.
