Built in 1905–1906 in Geneva, Ontario County, the United States Post Office is a pioneering example of Colonial Revival architecture in New York State. This red-brick, one-story structure, the first post office constructed in the state in the Colonial Revival style, was designed by the Office of the Supervising Architect of the Treasury Department under James Knox Taylor. Its symmetrical façade features limestone trim and a prominent entrance portico with four Doric columns supporting a full Doric entablature and pediment crowned by an oculus. The interior is enriched by a 1942 mural titled "The Vineyard" by Peter Blume. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989, the building stands within the Geneva Commercial Historic District as one of thirteen post offices designed by the Treasury office in New York State.
