    Great idea! I love Post Offices too. I’m IN.

    Gracie Station on E 85th St built in 1959. It may be hard to find the city name on other NYC Post Offices. My local 10128 at 3rd Ave and E 91st St doesn’t have it.

    Turns out my 10128 Zip Code Post Office in Yorkville does have the city next to the door (above the rear wheel of the bike), just couldn’t easily see it in the dark. Guess I should have taken a close up too. Located in the Ruppert Yorkville Towers Condominium at 3rd Ave and E 92nd St.

    Here is a post office with a bit of a history.

    On 10/3/2002, this was the site of one of the DC sniper attack shootings. This was the closest one to my house, atlhough, I had a few closer to where I worked. Those were some paranoid times!!

    Don’t worry. I won’t give myself bonus points for this. However, you coud get bonus points for posting something like this!![ATTACH=CONFIG]25511[/ATTACH]

    That is one big PO! But where does it have the name of the city?

    That’s ok. It’s still an awesome picture. No strikes against you! I’m not a normal Europe person. Is it common for the PO’s to not have names on them? I do know that some here in the US don’t.
    I just find it more amusing if it has a name on it. I

    No they don’t have names and other than this HQ one…the rest are pretty unimpressive! Thanks!

    I can’t see it, but I’ve been to enough PO’s to know that there is a good chance it is in that location!

    See. I’m easy to please. I think these NYC PO’s are pretty cool.
