The inside of this post office is vintage. The foyer looks like a turn of the century train ticket office complete with old wood, trimmed to the hilt, glass windows, stained dark. I was able to go inside and walk around after hours and also spied this really cool, wood relief sculpture of post office scene from 1790. It is located on the far right, near the mail counter. It is a half circle and has four adult, a kid and a dog engaging in typical post office goings-on, whatever that would be back in 1790. It says The Post Office 1790.
