On The Chopping Block: US Post Office At TechWorld
A few weeks ago, the USPS announced its plan to close approximately 3,700 under-performing retail locations. A list of those 3,700 locations was provided by the USPS and TBD turned that data into a nice map. Unfortunately, the USPS retail location in the basement of TechWorld (800 K St NW) is on that list. That post office location is most central to condos and apartments in Penn Quarter and Mt. Vernon Triangle, though only during the hours of 9-5 Mon-Fri.
So, what are our alternatives? 12th & Penn Ave, 14th & L, or Union Station, with Union Station offering service on the weekends .. for now.

This is terrible. I work remotely and use the TechWorld Post Office all the time. Is there a date when this would transire?
This sucks. Techworld post office is crowded all day long and there isn’t anything closer than McPherson square (which is even more crowded).
indeed there is a Post Office at TechWorld and for weekday business hour needs, it is (was?) very handy. 12th and Penn is the next closest. BTW, the USPS redesigned their website and it is a LOT better now.
Yup, I have been using this post office for more than a decade. They’re not the fastest, but it gets the job done. Looks like I will be using FedEx even more!
