Two-story, Italianate style, painted brick commercial building. This building is built on a stone foundation and has a flat tar and gravel roof. The entrance for 102, a modern aluminum frame glass door with a fixed single light transom, is recessed. Modern plate glass display windows with wooden bulkhead flank the entrance. The transom area is covered with wood. The entrance for 104, a single light wood frame door, is also recessed. The door has a two light transom and sidelights. The entryway is sheltered by a flat, rounded roof. The deck of the entryway is wood. Flanking the entrance are modern display windows. Cast-iron pilasters frame the entrance and display windows. The transom area is covered with board and batten. The second story entrance, a wood and glass panel door with painted transom, is centrally placed. The glass panel of the door has three lights.

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.
