History

Constructed in post-Civil War America, this magnificent building, along with four others in fast-growing cities, was ordered to be built to accommodate expanding Federal offices in the Reconstruction era. It also served to instill pride and patriotism in the government of a recently reunited America. The Old Post Office is a rare surviving example of the Second Empire architecture style, which was widely popular during the time period.
