East Leroy Michigan Post Office

Several post offices we visited during our blueberry festival road trip looked exactly like this. Each being the same shape and having the same orange brick facade. Just another one of those observations you make as you photograph post offices. Not taking toll roads and driving the roads less traveled is how you find these nice little towns.

Thanks,

Another stop during our summer Blueberry festival road trip. To be honest I don’t really remember stopping her or even the area. This happens to be one of those time when I was like OK let’s stop, I hurried to take the picture and was on my way.

Thanks,

Three Rivers Michigan Post Office

November 4, 2012 By David W. Gates Jr.

ADDRESS: 100 N. Main St., Three Rivers, Michigan 49093

What a great picturesque building. Standing very tall and proud right on the corner of main street in downtown Three Rivers is a beautiful WPA era post office building. Serving the community for generations since 1914 as indicated by the hidden corner-stone. Although there is no mural or other artwork the building itself its very pleasing on the eyes. I’m glad I drove slightly out of my way to visit this one. I just wished it would have been open when I arrived.

Thanks,
