This Picture Perfect Postcard Waymark became an adventure in architecture. I was trying to decide which corner of the building was featured in the postcard. So I counted windows. Hmmm... too many windows. I discovered that and extension was added by the WPA in 1939-1940. You can see the 'zig-zag zipper' of stone in the middle of the building. Notice how the entrance was moved east from the photo on the postcard to the current structure.
This building is undergoing a renovation to make it a zero-energy use Federal Building. More information may be found at (
