The Cahn-Crawford House at 1200 22nd Avenue in Meridian, Mississippi was built in 1918. The house was built by a businessman named E. Cahn, the same person that owned the Masonic Temple in the city.[2]

The structure is a two story tan and dark brown brick building with a green-tiled roof. A large marble staircase on the street side of the building leads to a balconied entry portico with corner piers capped by stone finials.[2]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979,[1] after being included in the Meridian Multiple Resource Area, a study of possibly noteworthy buildings in the city.[3]
