The historic Mead Building was at one time the center of activity at the South Dakota Human Services Center. Replaced by modern facilities, the building fell into disrepair and was essentially abandoned. An effort to re-purpose the building is underway. SDPB toured the site in August of 2013 and again in May of 2014.
Photos of the building are available on SDPB's Flickr photo site at https://www.flickr.com/photos/sdpb/sets/72157644989323372/
SDPB produced a "Dakota Life" television segment about the building. Watch it here.
See some great video of the old building in this YouTube clip.
