The Catoosa Post Office is located at 1805 South Cherokee Street (Route 66), southwest of town. This is a large one-story brick building with a row of fixed pane windows along the front. A plaque near the entrance indicates that this building was dedicated in 1991. The post office sits sideways to the highway, with two large parking lots in front.
The town of Catoosa, named after a nearby hill, was part of the Cherokee nation in the 1800s. A post office was established here in 1883. Located 14 miles northeast of Tulsa, it has grown as a bedroom community. In 1971, the town became the location of the Port of Catoosa, one of the largest inland rivers ports in the country.
The post office counter is open Monday thru Friday from 8:30 to 4:30 and closed on Saturday and Sunday. The lobby and post office boxes are open Monday to Saturday 24 hours.

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.
