The AT&T Building, now known as 220 Meridian, is a high rise located at 240 North Meridian Street in Indianapolis, Indiana. It was opened in 1932 and is 22 stories tall. It was primarily used for office space and was the headquarters for AT&T in Indiana until the 2017 sale and redevelopment of the building.[1] As of 2024, the size of the building is 554,000 square feet.[1]
Central Union Telephone Company building
The Central Union Telephone Company built a headquarters building on the corner of Meridian and New York Streets in 1907. Indiana Bell bought Central Union in 1929, but found the existing headquarters inadequate. Originally, the old building was to be demolished to make way for a new building on the site. However, that would have caused disruptions in telephone service. Kurt Vonnegut Sr., the architect of the new building, suggested moving it[2] to the adjacent lot at 13 West New York Street.
