Old Pershing Road Post Office

Just down hill from the Liberty Memorial and across the street from Union Station sits the old main Post Office.  The building was built for 4 million dollars and was occupied in September 1933.  Today the postal facilities have moved to a much smaller space within Union Station.  The IRS built a huge modern building just on the other side of this building and also now occupies this historic building.

I was going to say that it does look intimidating. Nice shot. Enjoy your Saturday.
