This grand, old post office served the community proudly for many years until being replaced with a newer, larger building nearby. This was a very popular post office and served as the local passport drop-off center (my first passport was submitted from here), The lobby was small and often very crowded while post office traffic congested the very busy Broadway Avenue which runs by the front front of the building. The building is now home to architects and boasts a large bank of solar panels on the east side of the building.

Visit Instructions:
To post a log to an existing U.S. Post Office waymark, you will need to post a picture of the front of the building, with the name of the post office in the background if that is possible.
A description of your Post Office is required, such as when it was built, history, outstanding or unique features, population of the city or town, just do a quick internet search and find an interesting bit of information about the city or town and add it to the long description, to make it more interesting. Even just adding in the population of the area can give others an idea of how many people this post office serves. This description should be at least three sentences.
If your Post Office has any unusual or unique features that you feel others would enjoy viewing, additional pictures are always welcome.
Including your gps device in the picture is not necessary, but wouldn't be cause for disapproval, as long as all other details of your log are acceptable.
