Description
The historic post office building in Bronxville, New York, was built in 1937-8 and was “designed by consulting architect Eric Kebbon (1891–1964) for the Office of the Supervising Architect. It is a 1 1⁄2-story building faced with brick and trimmed in limestone in the Colonial Revival style. The front façade features six extremely flat limestone pilasters that flank the central entrance.” (Wikipedia)
The facility, which houses an example of New Deal artwork, is still in service.
