East End Historic District is a historic district in Meridian, Mississippi. Added to the National Register of Historic Places on August 21, 1987, the district's significance lies in its large collection of late 19th and early 20th century Queen Anne and Colonial Revival style cottages built during Meridian's "Golden Age." Many of these cottages contain repetitive designs, creating interesting and picturesque streetscapes. [ [http://www.meridianms.org/com_historicneighbor.html City of Meridian, MS - Historic Neighborhoods] ] The district is an irregular shape, bounded to the east by 11th Ave and to the south by 5th St. The northern boundary of the district follows 18th St west from 11th Ave, turns south on 14th Ave, and west again on 14th St. 17th Ave between 14th and 5th streets forms the far western boundary of the district.
