About this property

Built in 1926, the Arcade Building is a historic building in downtown Fort Pierce, Florida. It is located at 101 U.S. 1, North. Built in a Spanish Colonial Revival style, when built it was the largest commercial building in Fort Pierce. On October 12, 2001, the structure was listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places. The building was used for retail and office space until the 1980s when a fire damaged a third of the building. Since then the building was underused until the facade and the interior were restored in 2002. Its restoration was a major priority in the city's redevelopment.
