Built in 1912, the building is famous for bearing the inscription: "Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds."
The James A. Farley Building was formerly the General Post Office Building. The building was designated a New York City Landmark in 1966. it was officially renamed in 1982 as a monument and testament to the political career of the nation's 53rd Postmaster General James Farley.
