Caption: Sullivan-King Mortuary
(The Federal Building)
401 North Main Street
Additional Description: Built in 1907-09 by the U.S. Government, this brick structure served as Anderson's post office until its move in 1938 to what is not the G. Ross Anderson Federal Courthouse on South McDuffie Street. Influenced by Federalist style, architect James Knox Taylor used arched windows, brick pilasters and red Spanish tile roof. Although the interior does retain marble floors and a circular metal staircase, it has been altered for its present use as Sullivan-King Mortuary. The former post office mail room, added in 1926, is now the chapel. (Source: A Stroll Downtown: Anderson, South Carolina (A Self-Guided Walking Tour))
