America Building

The America Building, once known as the Ross Building, is located at the corner of Front Street and Short Street at 201 E. Front Street. The five-story, 27000 square foot building was built in 1907 by Dr. T.E. Ross. It was designed by Hattiesburg architect Robert E. Lee. The famous Hub City sign sat atop this building.

Around 2005 a developer spent $2.3 million renovating the exterior of the building and gutting the interior.

On October 1, 2013, a new gym called Bodybar at the America opened inside the building.
