Frank M. Scarlett Federal Building

The Frank M. Scarlett Federal Building is a federal building of the United States located at 805 Gloucester Street in Brunswick, Georgia. Completed in 1959, it houses both a United States Post Office and operations of the United States District Court for the Southern District of Georgia. In December 1973, Senator Herman Talmadge introduced a bill in the United States Congress to rename the facility for District Court judge Francis Muir Scarlett; this bill was passed into law on January 2, 1975.[2] The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2014. The east side of the building was remodeled in 2015-16.
