The Griswold Plaza post office at 1314 Griswold Plaza in Erie, PA was built in 1932 and was home to USPS for about 70 years, until it recently relocated to a building a few blocks away. The Griswold office was used as a USPS retail location, as well as a delivery station. The new office on 14th & State Streets is only a retail office, not a delivery station. The Griswold building currently houses IRS offices, along with the office of a PA state senator. This building is adjacent to the Union Station building, a former train station which is now home to local restaurants.

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.
