Concerned about the fate of historic post offices? Today the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation (ACHP) issued a new report, Preserving Historic Post Offices: A Report to Congress. Fifteen recommendations within the report offer a range of actions for Congress, the USPS, the ACHP, and its partners. For more than two years Conservancy staff have been focused on the sale and disposal of historic post office facilities, primarily in Venice and Santa Monica. Our goal has been to ensure meaningful protection and preservation for these civic buildings following sale and transfer of ownership into private hands. As a nationwide issue, California has been a focus as the United States Postal Service (USPS) has been particularly aggressive in closing or relocating facilities here. Visit our site to read the report and learn more about how this issue is playing out in Southern California and nationwide. https://laconservancy.org/issues/post-offices
