The Las Animas Post Office in Las Animas, Colorado, is a Modern Movement-style building constructed in 1937–38 as part of New Deal-era federal construction. A compact 60-by-60-foot structure, it was notably built as a direct relief project of the Treasury Department rather than through more common New Deal agencies like the Works Progress Administration, making it unusual among contemporary Colorado federal buildings. As the town's first Federal building, it has functioned continuously as a post office since its completion and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2008.
