Saving the Former MPD Building
SUMMARY: The Mississippi Heritage Trust is working statewide to save and renew meaningful places in Mississippi. The Meridian Police Department building, designed by hometown hero Chris Risher, has been listed as one of the trust's 10 most endangered historic places for over 10 years. Executive Director Lolly Rash advocates for adaptive reuse of the building to serve the community and preserve its modernist architecture. The building received an honor citation from the American Institute of Architecture and is considered a modernist jewel that should have a new life in Meridian. The city is thrilled to see this historic building being considered for a new purpose.

SUMMARY: The River Avenue Bridge project, expected to be completed today, has seen progress but faces another delay due to difficulties with guard rail pouring. Construction company TL Wallace has fixed the issue, with crews now working on finishing the bridge's deck. Sidewalk sections have been poured and overhang forms removed. Next steps include grading, SE area work, and finishing the bridge deck. No completion date is given, with grinding needed determining the time required. A small portion of South Main Street will remain closed for two to three months after the bridge opens. Progress updates are available on the Forest County Board of Supervisors' Facebook page.
