NOT New Deal but too cute to not post!!!
Built in 1923, though according to the national registry nomination form it was originally built as a comfort station and turned into a post office in 1936…you really can’t stray too far from the new deal!!

Very wonky portico clearly added post-ADA with original looking brick…maybe taken from the left and back side of the building where they added on an extra chunk?

In other news the mural absolutely reflects the region! 🐄🐮🤠🏔⛰🎣

Love a postal worker who cares so much about the mural she turned off the light for a better picture 🙌
