SHOW ME YOUR POST OFFICE

I read that USPS will be shutting down smaller post offices soon. I fear my little town PO may be one of the ones to go, so I took a photo. I’d love to see your hometown post office, too.

The Old Post Office Bakery on Landor Road has been a lynchpin of the community since 1982 when founder Karl Heinz Rossbach, while squatting in a former post office off Acre Lane, began using an old bathtub as a mixing bowl to produce artisan sourdough loaves.

Not local exactly but I get to it sometimes.

Last Friday, I went to the post office and the weather was cloudy again.
This time, I photographed from different points.

Inside the building, with a broad view of the service and...

In a far place, from the top of a bridge.

Santo André's Central Post Office

This is my city's central post office, where I now receive and send my mail. It's a little further from my house, but it was the only branch where there was an vacant PO Box.


In front of the agency there is a statue of João Ramalho, a pioneer and founder of the village. As the world is decolonizing, I think the time has come to remove this statue and take it to another place.


Unfortunately it was cloudy today. Next time I will photograph from other angles, as it is a very beautiful square.
