Immediately, directly, a very short way.

Can also be used for time:

It's just past 9 o'clock - from a few seconds to a minute or two.

what’s the meaning of just past ?

In this sentence, just means right, exactly, and past means in front of.
So that it's that big glass office right in front of the park.

what’s the meaning of( just before- just after)

Just before and just after may mean immediately before or immediately after.

I want some examples.

Try constructing some examples and we will check if they are OK.

I'm afraid you are wrong on that one. If something is just past the park then you have to pass the park to get to it. It is the other side of the park, beyond the park. And just means what I said: immediately, directly, a very short way.

just can mean exactly, but not in that sentence. Here's an example of that meaning:

Thank you so much for the book. It was just what I wanted.
