    The long interior lobby. Service windows are closed but a postal station still exists in a small room at the far end.

    I had quick, competent service here recently. Now that the USPS review is out of the way I'll encourage you to visit St. Louis' downtown solely to view the magnificent Art Deco building, which showcases a period of distinctly American art and architecture. Next to Union Station, the St. Louis main post office is an easy and quick side trip. It's free to roam around the mostly deserted public area. Inside, there are magnificent murals near the ceiling and Art Deco fixtures on the floor and in the walls. Outside, you can enjoy gargoyles at the roof line. Wall etchings highlight previous types of mail service. Neglect--especially outside--is starting to take its toll on some features. Still, most retain much of their original character. An inexpensive pair of binoculars helps with viewing objects near the roof.

    I've had a letter stuck at this post office for 7 days and counting. Air Tag shows its location.

    While this building no longer serves the same function it did when it was built, there is no…read moredenying that the place is architecturally sound and built beautifully. Currently, it serves as a place for state, federal, and private purposes. I come here for the 'state' related purpose. To be honest, I would not have ventured here until I had to as part of my current work routine. There are street parking available but you could easily pay about $2 at a parking garage across the street, the same one that Schnucks uses. I park there and cross the street to go over to the Old post office. It's also a great way to check out the beautiful design of the building. There are several different entrances, normally there is a guard at the lobby and sometimes, there are some guards by the door. No ID checks or anything. I'm not an architectural expert but this grand design is something to behold. I've only been on the main level but my first visit, I got lost and ended up in a big ballroom area where you can look up and see the magnificent ceiling. Quite a view! It's also where I got to peek at the other floor but it was around 3pm and the building was not busy. There are bathrooms inside and yes, they are clean and well-kept. Apparently, this used to be where the Webster university downtown campus was but is now a Maryville university satellite campus? I'm not sure if it still is or not but I wouldn't have minded going to classes in a building like this with so much history. Of course, I read all about it after my first trip but won't bore you with the details. You should see it for yourself if you happen to be downtown and have a bit of free time to explore and most importantly, a fan of grande old architectures!

    The Old Post Office is one of the coolest buildings downtown. It was built from 1873-1884 and…read morerepresents the last U.S post office of its kind from that period, as the other ones were all demolished. The building has not been a post office for many years but today it is still in use as a library branch, a satellite campus for Lindenwood university, and it also has other offices. It has a museum on the ground floor where you can see the history of the building. As one of the oldest buildings downtown, the Old Post Office is truly unique and it's one of the hidden gems in St. Louis.

    Is this USPS in a good part of town? Not really, but it's still safe…read more Is this USPS in a newer facility? No, it could use an update. It's a very old building, but it was clean and well kept. I've recently moved back to STL and for my new zip code, this is my post office. My first visit was to confirm my, COA (Change of Address). It's not as easy as it use to be. Back in the day, you went to your PO and filled out a card and you were done. Now you fill out the card, get a letter from the USPS telling you to go to a website and answer questions. Once you do that, you're still not done. You'll get another letter telling you to take a photo idea to a qualifying PO to "confirm" your ID. The young lady at my new PO was personable and professional. She made the confirmation of my COA, simple and easy. I'll only need to return for the purchasing of stamps or to ship a package and when it's time, I wont mind coming to this PO.

    Typical South City business- employees who don't want to be there, less than great cleanliness,…read morealways out of items. It's a 50/50 chance this location will have STAMPS. Yes, the #1 staple of a post office- maybe they'll have some, maybe they won't. Employees aren't quite as annoyed to have customers as a lot of South City businesses, but they're not really thrilled to help you, either. The bullet proof glass is very warm and welcoming. It's alright if you really need to mail something, but again, you're gambling with any city post office getting your mail to where it needs to go. If there's a county post office on your way to anywhere else, I recommend doing your postal business there instead.
