Chicago Illinois (Pilsen Station) Post Office

Chicago (Pilsen) IL Post Office 60608

ADDRESS: 1859 Ashland Ave., Chicago, Illinois 60608

If you have ever been to Chicago you know just how busy the city is. Pilsen was no exception. It was difficult to get a good clear shot of the building but here it is. My initial visit was in May of 2003. I imagine I’ll be back at least one of two more times for better photographs.

Thanks,

David W. Gates Jr.

Lake George Colorado Post Office

Lake George CO Post Office 80827

ADDRESS: 37370 US Highway 24, Lake George, Colorado 80827

The Lake George Colorado post office is the 4th post office I’ll be posting from our adventure trip in May of 2003.

This style of building is pretty typical of a lot of post offices I have visited. After visiting so many post offices you tend to see the similarities and differences of the buildings. This is another early one of photos so I only have a few photos.

Thanks,

David W. Gates Jr.

Hartsel Colorado Post Office

May 20, 2012 By David W. Gates Jr.

Hartsel CO Post Office 80449
Hartsel Colorado Post Office 80449

ADDRESS: 88 Mariposa St., Hartsel, Colorado 80449

Just another post office visit from our May 2003 adventure trip. The Hartsel Post Office is another one of those newer buildings. I think at this point I was starting to drive my friends nuts by stopping at all the post offices during this trip.

Anyway, the Hartsel Post Offices is another one where I just took an exterior photo of the building. I’m unsure if there is a dedication plaque or other interesting features. Anyone in Hartsel know if a dedication plaque exist?

Thanks,

David W. Gates Jr.
