It was in that year that the town was given a brand new brick post office. Near the southern end of the town, the post office is surrounded by ample parking and an eclectic assortment of businesses.
I could be wrong, but it looks like the town didn't get new mailboxes, however. They appear to be older style boxes, much more ornate than contemporary boxes - the type usually found in post offices from the 1930s and earlier. There are about 2,000 in the post office, which serves a population of around 1,000 in the town. Either a lot of the boxes are unused or there is a pretty large rural population in the vicinity.

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.
