The Feroe Building, a two-story structure with an elaborate faux stone exterior, was built in 1913 and housed the Stuart Drug Company, including Stuart’s first pay phone. Installed on April 9, 1915, the phone charged 10 cents per call, nearly $2.00 in today’s money, at a time when the average annual income in Stuart was $687, making telephone use a luxury; even so, three calls were placed to West Palm Beach within the first hour. By 1917, the price had risen to 41 cents for three minutes, including an extra penny war tax. By then the Stuart Post Office had joined the drug company in the Feroe Building, occupying the corner across from the new train station built in 1913. In September 1912, Stanley Kitching, Charles C. Chillingworth, and Harry Feroe each contributed $350 to guarantee construction of a new rail station, and a week later Florida East Coast Railroad officials announced that the larger station would be built on this site. Completed in early 1913, the station served morning and evening trains until passenger service ended in the mid-1960s, and despite efforts to move and save it, the old station was demolished in December 1967. In 1925, the Post Office relocated, allowing the Stuart Drug Company to expand into the entire first floor of the Feroe Building, while the intersection of Flagler and St. Lucie Avenues remained a hub of community activity between the building and the depot.
