Here is the narrative I received from the U.S. Dept. of the Interior:
c.1935. 1-story Colonial Revival brick building trimmed with terra cotta. Molded brick watertable. Central entrance, terra cotta frontispiece of engaged Doric columns, full entablature, glazed door. 12/12 double hung windows, inner two with flat terra cotta lintels and terra cotta sills, outer two with brick jack-arch lintels, terra cotta keystones, and terra cotta sills. Dentiled brick and terra cotta cornice. c.1970 brick addition to north.
Located on a tree-lined residential street, I saw an amazing amount of local foot traffic coming to and fro. Parking is restricted to curbside, with a 15 minute limit.

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.
