The magnificent water tower

This amazing structure has been a huge part of Meridian's heritage as one of Idaho's empire cities.
You can see that it has been recently painted too!

Meridian Lanes

This structure has been known in southwest Idaho as one of the best places to bowl.
If you come to Meridian, this is a must! Even the lady at the Wendys drive thru told me so.

Tidbits on Meridian.

Welcome!

It has two Albertsons food centers and a Home Depot.
