The Cedar City Main Post Office is a two-story building of red brick which rests upon a raised basement platform. Reinforced concrete basement walls and floor slabs, and steel framing provide structural support. Granite dresses the raised basement wall and rough tapestry brick faces the first and second stories. Seven flat-arched bays divide the symmetrically-arranged front facade. The five central bays are recessed and fronted by six engaged terra-cotta columns of colossal order. Resting atop Ionic capitals is a terra-cotta entablature topped by a solid brick parapet. Cast iron is used for the entry landing light standards. The roof is flat, built-up tar composition. The building is well preserved and an essentially unaltered example of Neoclassical design.
