So the murals were moved there from another post office? Usually these post office murals are up
high, and therefore, seen from a different and farther perspective. I saw a post office mural once that
had been moved to another building and it was placed at eye level with plexiglass in front. It was also
in a hallway…a wide one, but nonetheless it was difficult to get back far enough and fully appreciate.
Still, at least it was preserved!
