Comments: Established on April 10, 1820 with Amos Wheeler as its first postmaster. Construction on this post office building began in 1932 and was completed in December of that same year. Architect was James A. Wetmore, Acting Supervising Architect of the Treasury. The east wing of this building was extended to the north in 1941. This extension replicated the exterior of the original building. The west wing was extended to the north in 1987 and is also an abstraction of the original design.
