U.S. Post Office, Historic post office on North Tioga Street, Ithaca, United States.
The two-story Classical Revival structure features French Baroque architectural elements, including symmetrical facades and decorative stonework throughout the building's exterior.
The U.S. Post Office, constructed in 1909, was designed by James Knox Taylor during his tenure as Supervising Architect of the Treasury Department.
The building's transformation from post office to Ithaca Town Hall in 1998 demonstrates the community's commitment to preserving architectural heritage.
The United States Postal Service maintains a retail store within 5,000 square feet of the building, offering mailing services to downtown residents.
The structure belongs to a collection of New York State post offices built between 1858 and 1943, documented in a Multiple Property Submission.
