Built in 1940 as part of a federal government jobs program, it is a prominent local example of simplified Classical Revival architecture. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.[1] Description and historyThe South Hadley Post Office occupies a prominent position at the north end of its central town green, which is just to its south across Hadley Street. It is a single-story masonry structure, built out of red brick with limestone trim, and covered by a flat roof. Its facade is relatively plain, fronted by a series of limestone columns and topped by a limestone entablature, which extends around the top of the building. The walls are predominantly brick, laid on a granite foundation, with granite steps leading to the main entrance. Despite modernization in the 1960s the interior has maintained some of its original features, including marble wainscoting and some woodwoork.[2] The post office was built in 1940 to a design by Leon Pernice, an architect based in West Springfield. It was built at a time when the federal government was emphasizing simplified styles whose designs could be approved and executed rapidly, providing jobs to the community. The building underwent a substantial remodelling and enlargement in 1968, when a large ell was added to its rear, and glass-and-aluminum partitions and fluorescent lighting were added to its lobby area.[2] See also
